Duncan: Yes, I think it's truly that bad. I still wanted to give it another chance sometime with a higher impedant headphone, but so far I'm still too disappointed with the first tries.
The main fault is screwed sound. Causes might be the cheap parts (cheap 4580 opamps, cheap volume pots, cheap input selector switch, cheap capacitors and even cheap resistors). Only the case and the connectors make a half decent impression - this is a true case of "außen hui, innen pfui" (fancy outside, ******** inside). I'd expect the cheap Btech amp to be a far better buy at a far more realistic price. From my side, the Head-Box is don't-buy product.
