Centrance Hifi-Skyn and ATH-ESW11-expatinjapan


Product Description:
Centrance HiFi Skyn is a brilliant solution for iphone users as iphone fans are not satisfied with the sound quality they get out of their iphones/ipod touches.

That is why many Dacs and Dac/Amps for iDevices have come out on the market since 2010.
Such as:
Cypher Labs Clas Solo classic
Fostex HP P1
Venture Craft Go Dap DD
Centrance Hifi-M8. One of the most popular products from Centrance.

Now days people are thinking more practical , such as mobility and simplicity as in a All In One unit.
So last year (2015) Centrance launched their All in One Unit solution for iphones and the ipod touch:
The Centrance Hifi Skyn.

Conclusion:
As a 2 in 1 Solution the Centrance HiFi Skyn is an ideal solution for a on the go set up that is good for traveling.
Users can use their iphone as a smart phone and also as a high end music player.
The Centrance HiFi Skyn is my every day on the go set up for my iphone 6s , beside another Dap like
AK380 Copper
AK240 SS
AK120 II
Venture Craft Valog SouDroid
Onkyo DPX1
Lotoo Paw Gold
and many more.

I usually bring a minimum two Daps for traveling in my bag.
The Centrance Hifi-Skyn is a highly recommended product by my personal evaluation.

If you liked the Centrance Hifi-M8, you will possibly love the Hifi-Skyn even more, because the Sound Quality is better than the Hifi-M8, I think it has more life, focus and also has big enough power to drive my larger headphones like the LCD X and Fostex TH 900.



Thank you again to Centrance for sending me this review unit of the Hifi-Skyn
