I just don't want to lose the Move sound, but I love the idea of it being smaller for portability.

Base on Jan's description, I believe this is a leaner and meaner machine. I'd think that it would at least match the Move.

It really does look fab!

A couple of questions spring to mind while I mull this one over:

Will the HeadSix perform well with rechargeables? I have a couple of Maha 9.6v and I think they're slightly longer than regular alkalines, so I'm wondering if they'll even fit to begin with.

Is "low-current" essentially the same as "low-gain"? I'm wondering whether the HeadSix might struggle to drive my 40 Ohm PROlines or 30 Ohm Edition 9s.

Thanks in advance!

I just ordered one in black. I'm going to put my Move up for sale tonight once I get some pics taken.

I will be sticking with the Move, for a variety of reasons, but it's awesome that people will be able to get such a high-quality portable amp for such a low price.

Oh man, I looked forward for high current mode, but you cant have everything. Again, excellent offer Dr Meier. I had to let H5 slip past, but perhaps this time...

I love the Move, but the size and weight is too much for the type of listening that I do. I just put it up for sale without pics, but will put them up tonight when I get home.
I'll still give you my comparison thoughts once I receive the Headsix.

Been thinking about getting a portable amp for a good while and this one pushed me over. Just put myself in line for a black one! Now the wait...
