The Z-audio Zmoy and pimeta amps are no longer offered. They will be replaced in about 1.5 months with an all new line of original designs.

Diy portable amps

I think we should also include the amps made by others DIYFS such as misterx, vodochile( ups don't remember how to spell it) and others. Im not saying that JMT is better or worse, I just think we should include all the manufacturers. it's more fair this way.

I also think this thread should be a sticky. how can it be done?

This might be a lot to add. This info is already available at each manufacturers website.

Can someone help me out and list the DIYers (and their website) of the different amps. I will break this into a separate section. I assume the amps that would be included are: mint, pimeta, cmoy). Any other amps?

True but it is something to think about before plunking down cash.

The website for the "Super Mini Mint Amp" is www.westernimpressions.ca but it is currently "under construction" right now...whatever that means. The only page that is active is the /archive page which shows some other amps he has built.

I have another one. This is not very liked around here, but this design was one of the first DIY headphone amps ever made and one of the first to be sold.

http://www.soundprofessionals.com/cg...?item=SP-HBA-2

And it's better than the headphone jack of any portable, albeit sometimes it tends to have a hiss, specially with sensible cans.
