Default Headroom modules for DIY?
Hi, All,

I am interested in building a DIY headphone amp, and would like to know if the various Headroom modules are still available for purchase.

I can find no info on the Headroom website or on the DIY forum.

Thanks!

Ken

still available???

as far as I know headroom never had their modules for sale as a standalone item, only as an upgrade for their amps.
headroom will confirm this for sure


If you're looking for a DIY amp, read through the DIY forums and you'll find many offerings.

Actually, they were LONG ago. But we had so many tech support problems that we had to discontinue the offering. Sorry!

(Though, I'll have to admit, that a very select group --- of one person at the moment --- get to play with our boards from time to time. You're welcome, Nate.)

Actually it is somewhat easy task if SMD soldering skill is OK when dealing with empty module circuit board, here is my desolder-then-solder DIY experience as a Headroom FAN (http://www.head-fi.org/forums/3358767-post2619.html), the most important thing is control the solder iron tip temperature especially when dealing with PPS film cap(easily to be melted)....
