Works great, sounds fantastic, I'm using another one for a Beta22 and will likely be using the same type when I go balanced Beta22.

Just thought id contribute to the builds, here's my Aikido headphone amp, designed by John Broskie. It's not finished yet but so far it sounds great, im very happy with it! My friend helped me to make it as i have never built a full amp myself. I learned a lot building this!

I just want to get it boxed up at some point and design a panel at FPE.
The amp uses 9pin mono boards, JJ and Electro Harmonics valves and a shunt pot for the volume control.

Here's a few pics. It will be boxed soon (hopefully!).

Absolutely. I'm thinking of it more as learning platform for electronics than a finished product. The parts could end up anywhere.

I was thinking about replacing the amp board with a PIMETA next.

The transformer seemed like a good deal, but I must admit to being suckered by the aesthetic appeal of the over-sized toroid

The case is the coal-tray from a portable barbeque. I can't believe how expensive "real" cases are. (At least where I live).

Lovely job cetoole, what sort of paint is that?

Nice job fault51 and colin!

fault51: is the cable you are using the 2 conductor shielded teflon wrapped stuff? If so, how is your experience working with it? I always seem to have fun stripping the jacket without tearing up the shield!

Big thank you to Chu Moy, here's my 18V Cmoy
