Who was the reviewer with the silver beard and Hawaiian shirts? I'd love to see his review of this.

It's a real nice amp, especially on HD600, 650, etc. If it's new that's a nice deal right there. I've owned LOTS of expensive headphones. I'm happy now with my HD600's on a good amp.

Item is SOLD.

I've had one about a year and am always surprised at how good it is. Highly recommended.

Original owner perfect condition Quad headphone amp/line stage. This is a spectacular piece of gear. It's built like a tank, all the switches, volume pot, etc are all really solid. Sound quality is off the charts, particularly with a headphone that likes tubes like the Sennheiser's. The DAC is...

No news? I'm thinking either this or the $500 more Violectric. I like the balance knob on the G108.

Looking for an amp with two RCA inputs and 1/4" and XLR headphone outputs. If the Headamp GS-Mini had two RCA inputs instead of one RCA and one XLR that would be perfect. Might consider one RCA input and one DAC input if the DAC is VERY GOOD. All comments welcome.

My thoughts exactly. And they give it more bass when what it really needs is a wider soundstage. I don't see this knocking the Sundara off its pedestal.

I've solved this by having a pair of Focals for Kraftwerk, Daft Punk, etc, and Arya's for classical and film scores.

Don't know about Germany, but if you're talking about the U.S. you are just flat out 100% wrong. American tube amp companies are not required to have people send their amps in for biasing. 45 years ago Conrad Johnson had a little LED on the top of their amp that you could use to set the...

Read the manual. It says 'if you replace a tube you need to send it to Audio Research to have a technician adjust it'. In other words.... we want $530 to replace your power tubes. They should give these away, they'll make it all up in service fees. It's astonishing to me that in 2022 a...

The VA-One is a 'built like a tank' Quad headphone and speaker tube amp with a built-in dac. I bought it to use as a headphone amp and it is outstanding at that. I love a good tube headphone amp. There is a built-in dac which is good enough, but my Chord is better and I've used it through...

This is the famous Gilmore Lite MK2 headphone amp and includes their new $300 outboard power supply. I'm not a big 'outboard power supply' kinda guy, but this power supply is a huge improvement. I've owned a lot of very expensive headphone amps but I've been very happy with this - wonderful...

heartlandcables.com link is for sale.

The Peachtree Sonadac sold new for $1299. This is a very light use (mostly as a dac) unit that is LIKE New. Includes remote and power cord. Makes an excellent digital preamp, I used it with a Benchmark amp and it was a great combination. It's a really nice unit, looks great and sounds...

I go to 'Forums' and then to 'Head-fi classifieds' and I click on 'ADD LISTING' and I get a list of sub-forms all marked 'You do not have permission to add to add listings to this category'. I've been a member here over a decade with a thousand posts. If I can't sell something who can? I...

I bought these as a lark, just wanted to hear them. They are crazy comfortable and do not have the Beyer 'house sound' - they are designed for 'home listening' and are detailed but completely non 'edgy'. This pair is just like new in the factory box. Price is firm as I'm basically giving...

I've been a member here a dozen years and have over a thousand posts. But I'm being told I do not have permission to add a post to the 'full size headphones' forum. Yes, I am using the link to the new forum. Is there a bad link somewhere? Or some other weird problem? Is there anyone...

Arya's and Focal are a great combination. They have dissimilar enough qualities that you aren't duplicating the same sound. Arya's are my main headphones, I've had them two years and love them to death (more than Stax, Sennheiser, etc). I just ordered a pair of Clear MG's for my 'want some...

It's going to be a long time before I put something on my ears that other people have been wearing on their ears.

I like to listen to a new pair of cans for half a year before I really judge them.

Non microphonic, very flexible, look and feel great. I've bought at least three cables from them, quick service and never a disappointment. I have Celeste's on order, I'm looking forward to picking my colors for the cables!

I've gotten a lot of cables from LQI, really like them: https://lqicables.com/

Do you find the soundstage on the Celestee's large enough for you? I'm interested in the 'tight and focused image' but if it's really tiny I'm thinking maybe I should just do the new Clears. I am kinda a soundstage guy.

I sure wish we could get some Celestee / Clear MG comparisons. I know the Celestees have more clamp and a tighter, smaller soundstage. But subjectively - how does the 'listen to music' experience vary between the two?
