[here we go again, another question from Legoman......]
I have an AKG 501 and bought a TA with it (package deal - price was right, money is a problem). While I agree with Jude that the TA (with crossfeed) provides absolutely fatigue free listening, the treble roll off is just a bit for me, the change in tonality disquieting, and I don't think I can live with the constant doubts.
So I am looking for an alternative in the $200 region (money is a problem, 250 is the absolute, absolute upper limit).
To my knowledge that leaves
1. the Creek (and later build myself - or beg somebody to build me - a Jan Meier crossfeed)
2. the Headroom "Little"
I would be very interested in a comparison between the 2, any other amp in the price range that i am overlooking (no tubes please, expert klutz at work). Also, does the Little have a filter to compensate for the crossfeed like some of the more expensive Headroom amps?
Thanks again,
Legoman
