Our Thoughts RADAR AI

£30 looks like a strong deal for an NX2s if it’s working properly and complete; these usually sit in the budget portable amp/DAC bracket, and £30 is comfortably on the low side for a clean used example. Given the model’s compact battery-powered design and USB DAC/amp functionality, that’s the kind of price that makes sense for a quick buy rather than a long think.

What makes it worthwhile is the practical bit: the NX2s is well-liked as a lightweight, travel-friendly unit with decent drive for easy-to-moderate headphones and a long battery life, so it still earns a spot as a simple grab-and-go amp. At this price, the main thing to check is basics: it powers on, charges normally, both input modes work, and the battery holds a sensible charge. If those are all fine, this is a neat little pickup rather than a risky one.

Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
