Question from headphone newbie
« on: 17 Sep 2019, 12:35 pm »
I am putting together a small system for air travel. I purchased a used pair of B&W P7 wired cans. I am looking at either the Fiio A3 or A5. The P7 is a pretty easy load at 22 ohms, so I don't need the extra power of the A5. Power notwithstanding, would I be able to hear the difference in the two amps otherwise? I will spend the coin for the A5, but why do it if the A3 will be just as good for my needs?

Also welcome comments on the P7. I read all the reviews and they seem to check all the boxes. I really needed a closed back headphone for my situation.

Thanks in advance,


Shakey

The only way to be sure is to actually try them....but maybe someone who has experience in this area will chime in.

I doubt that you will really hear a drastic difference between the two.
