Review on AIYIMA T8 Preamplifier Bluetooth Headphone by Corey Ford

Revainrating 5 out of 5

WOW, all the features you need with great performance at a reasonable price!

So I wanted to add streaming capability to my old receiver in my office. As I started looking for options, I realized I needed a few key features. Bluetooth, analog and digital inputs provide an analog output for integration into my system. I also wanted a remote control to control the system. Most Bluetooth receivers on the market do not have a remote control. Then I saw the Aiyima T8 which seemed to have all the features I wanted. Volume, tone, and input controls were all available via the remote control. I decided to order the device and have been testing it for the last few weeks. I was surprised by the sound that the device achieves with the supplied vacuum tube, especially in the rock and blues range. I also tested the unit with a GE5657 vacuum tube, which I really like when listening to jazz. The flexibility to customize the sound to your liking by using different tubes is a great feature of this unit. Listening with headphones wasn't on my list, but I checked the connection and enjoyed the performance. I recommend trying this device. Enjoy!
