On June 16th 2005, The June/July edition of Rolling Stone Magazine hit news stands with a quick look at the Simpl A1. Rolling Stone states "iPods produce decent sound on the standard issue earbuds, but the player lacks the oomph to drive discerning listeners' high-end headphones. This mini-amp solves that problem: it attaches gently but firmly to the back of full size iPods and boosts the signal to audiophile levels."
