Survives the Washing machine
Ive had this for many years and it has always served me well! Charges quickly and holds a charge for a long time. Super small so it's easy to travel around with and you can literally just plug and play! Has clean and dirty sounds and an aux chord input so you can plug your phone in and play along to anything! I decided to finally write a review for it now because I accidentally ran it through the wash and it STILL WORKS. Truly a powerful and well made product. 10/10

Great for the price
Works great for what its for. Sound quality is definitely acceptable and is perfect when you want to play without disturbing others. The input aux sound quality is pretty low but thats not surprising.

Convenient gainy headphone amp for electric guitar
This headphone amp goes from slightly crunchy to full out distortion for your practice on the road or at home. I have a Pro-Series Traveler, which I specifically chose so I wouldn't need power to practice with it on the road. However, as another reviewer stated, using the stethophone for long periods of time hurts your ears (maybe not for smaller heads). In my case, after pulling it wider many times, I can now play about 45 minutes or so before I need to stop. To take my Traveler on vacation instead of a business trip, I needed to be able to play longer than 45 minutes at a time. This fit the bill perfectly - I can play for hours. As a bonus, when my amp recently went in the shop, I was able to use this on my full size guitar to get me through. I also love the fact it has a rechargeable battery.Be aware that there is basically no clean tone with this. Even at the lowest gain, unless you pull the guitar volume back quite a bit, it will still have a little crunch. If you mostly play clean, there is a separate "acoustic" version.I have not suffered delay as someone else noted, nor any fit issues. Some reviewers complain about the sound; this has a very serviceable sound at tremendous convenience for a very low price. It's plenty adequate to practice.

Awesome quiet practice tool…with character!
This is a workhorse of an headphone amplifier. With she three simple controls, it can go from clean with a bit of breakup to full-out distortion.Coupled with a quality pair of headphones (I use gaming headphones with a volume control), this is a great tool to crank your guitar without annoying neighbors, spouses, and pets.Though I fully believe in the adage, “if we’re too loud, you’re too old”, I can also respect the fact that some people, maybe most people, don’t want to hear me play (yet!).I can’t speak to its longevity but, so far, I’m really enjoying the simple versatility and usefulness of this headphone amp. Thanks!

meh, cheap and flimsy
it works. it amplifies. but there is no joy in the sound. the knobs are flimsy and the sound thin. not fun at all. got a blackstar from another site and that one is amazing in sound, effects and controls (albeit still a bit flimsy too so I am babying it). that one I now jam on every night.

Handy little thing
Excellent tiny little device. A guitar headphones and an auxiliary inputs can be attached. USB rechargeable. No Bluetooth.

Awful hiss and sound
This has to be the worst headphone amp I’ve encountered. This makes AM radio sound sensational. The sound output is a mixture of hiss and lifeless dull sound. I am extremely happy to be able to return it.

Sounds pretty good
I use this amp with full size Audio Technica headphones with a reverb and compressor pedal. Noise from the amp is well controlled and the design is very utilitarian. I wish the case, pots and switches were of a higher quality. The charging cable is well made and functional. It seems as if this is a pretty typical price point and if something happened to this one I would probably buy this again. I have been playing guitar for decades and am a precessional live sound and recording engineer.
