knife-fi?
I have one of the knives these husband and wife did in the vid. It costed me about $1k AUD. The knife does not look beautiful but pretty sharp depends on how much I would like to sharpen it.

Violectric HPA V550 - Blue's Brother and the successor to the V281
V550 is a great amp for money. The more I upgrade my audio equipments the more the amp reveals the differences among them. I have not heard V281 but I think V550 is a better amp for sure in Violectric price range. V550 is like an economic version of Niimbus. They share very similar design but...- LoveKnight

Violectric HPA V550 - Blue's Brother and the successor to the V281
About the dip switches. I tried various setting but to my ears and I hear little to no different sound signature with the gain switches. Now I just turn on the gain switches on my Weiss Dac 205 and set my Violectric V550 to default. In fact I think only you are the person who mentioned about...- LoveKnight

Niimbus Ultimate Series US4/US4+/US5/US5 Pro Headphone Amps - by Lake People
In Australia it is funny that Holo Bliss is more expensive than Violetric V550 and near the price of Nimbus pro version lol. Look like the dealer of Holo in Australia they increase the price a lot compare to other region dealers. So if the Niimbus is just better than the V550 a little bit then...- LoveKnight

Icon Audio HP205D
There are a few dealers in Australia that sell Icon audio amps. I checked the main website and find out that the amp is currently out of order. I am saving money to buy a 300B amp too. May I ask Mr ardbeg1975 about how is the pairing of Sennheiser HD800s with the Icon hp205d? Thank you.- LoveKnight

The (new) HD800 Impressions Thread
I just checked the webiste maybe I am wrong but I saw on the webiste that the price for a Sennheiser HD800 modded by JAR to become a JAV800v3 is over $2k without headphone included (that means someone has to ship his or her HD800 to him). Am I correct? Thank you.- LoveKnight

Hello everyone. I use an original Sennheiser HD800 with Violectric V550. I found out that most of HD800 sibilances and treble peak come from sources and musics. I have a Melco N100 music server with a USB reclocker and a Matrix S-pdif 3 DDC with no fancy cables. The Dac I currently use is Weiss...- LoveKnight

Wow. I just had a second hand but very good condition Sennheiser HD800 here and the pair with Vioelectric V550 is fabulous.

Violectric HPA V550 - Blue's Brother and the successor to the V281
Well I dare to say when a HD600 or 650 well driven it outplayed the Denon D9200 on resolution and transparent . I compared them on my gigs Melco N100 -> a USB reclocker -> a DDC -> Weiss 205 -> V550. I still think can improve the HD650 more with better power supply unit and cables. My Hypsos for...- LoveKnight

I saw your post on Denon D9200 topic. May I ask what headphones do you pair with V550? I tried Denon D9200 with V550 but unfortunately I feel bright and fatigue and the scale was just little compare to HD650 scales up alot with this amp. In the end I just use HD650 with V550 exclusively.- LoveKnight
