Matrix Audio X-Sabre Pro

摘要

As the owner of a Matrix Audio M-Stage HP-3B headphone amplifier - which despite its bargain price has impressively solid build quality- I had some inkling of what to expect when I unpacked the X-Sabre Pro. But what emerged from the box nevertheless exceeded my expectations, and by some measure. I anticipated chunky; I didn't quite expect a thin, modestly sized slab that feels for all the world like an immaculately finished block of aluminium. Which actually is how the enclosure starts out, before being machined from solid.
