The amp is built by Birgir (Spritzer) and designed by Kevin Gillmore.
Absolutely amazing sounding. Throw a huge soundstage, killer bass, neutral with a hint of warmth. Excellent with Planars and dynamic headphones. It is fully balanced
Here is an excerpt from Bon Katz in Stereophile magazine when he was reviewing it with the LCD4:
Listening: Mjolnir Pure Bipolar
Now I switch to the balanced headphone cable to audition the Mjolnir Pure Bipolar. First impression: This amp kicks ass! The bass has strength and solidity, is fat yet defined, resembling the loudspeaker sound far more than any of the previous amps. The Mjolnir's extreme high end seems slightly muted, but perhaps that is most accurate to the source. I will need to do a detailed check against the speakers when the opportunity arises. Keep in mind that I tuned my LCD-4 EQ using the Bipolar so this is definitely a biased review!
In the Mjolnir, Lindsey's voice is simultaneously warm and clear and the instruments and background vocals form a beautiful 3D image with a flowing continuity between the sides and front. This amp has a continuous, holographic wrap-around quality; none of the previous amps came close to producing this quality of image depth. The Bipolar is the sweetest sounding, clearest, most 3D, impacting and tactile dynamic headphone amp in my collection.
