It's Portable and Versatile

The battery Cute is optimized for a wide range of load impedances and it's suitable for most headphones from the Etymotic ER4P (27 ohm) to the AKG K240DF (600 ohm). It has a high bandwidth, extreme low noise design (lower than -107db) that yields greater than 105 dB of dynamic range and that surpasses the capabilities of human hearing; which means there's no headphone that it can't handle! It's also got two gain settings that are selectable by a rear panel switch to give you quick and easy optimization for both high and low efficiency headphones.

As you are finding with the Firestone Audio line (link products), the Battery Cute is built to satisfy the tweakers that are out there too. It features user changeable opamps and a Shunt/Series type input volume control to suit different tastes. Another trademark feature; it's got short circuit and thermal protection.
