FS iQube, Little Country, Headroom Coda, BSG CMoy, Penguin Royal, &c.

post #1 of 8

I've become a collector of amps, without really intending to be. I like all these amps but don't use them enough. I'll see if any find buyers, and if not, I'm happy to have them.

 

I have an iQube, the first version, ($sold). It has a few small scuffs on the rubber grip, as it is tricky to get the battery cover off. One side has the faint mark of the rubber strap it used to have. Comes with a USB charger and a little mini-mini cable. It is a glorious portable amp but I'm not traveling much, so it just sits there looking at me.

 

I have a Firestone Little Country and USB Fubar. (The second link is to a review as the new Fubars on the official site are redesigned.) I'm selling these as a package I won't split, because if they don't sell I want to continue use them together. $415 405 shipped ConUS.

 

I have a couple premium CMoys; a Biosciencegeek model I had him put in a limited edition Altoids tin ($sold), and a Penguin Royal ($sold returned). Again I don't have much use for portables these days. The Penguin amp has a drifting pot, due to age, which I hadn't noticed on the earbuds I used to check it, but was easily audible on the IEMs the purchaser used (audible on a very low volume on the buds, but at a normal volume on the IEMs). There is a bit of a channel imbalance that corrects itself as you turn the volume up. What this means is the pot is aging and will need replaced eventually. I wouldn't do it right now for my PK2s but for more sensitive earphones you'd have to right away. If you're interested in it make me an offer; there is likely a sweet spot where your offer sounds better than me overcoming the inertia to fix the pot.

 

See the third post for a Mini3 ($100 shipped), Gamma DAC ($sold), and Headroom Coda ($140 shipped).

These come in three separate boxes; will most likely ship those boxes, cushioned, in one large box.

I have a couple of AMB DIY products, a Mini 3 amp ($100 shipped) and a gamma 1 ($sold) modular DAC. The first was built by Funch, the latter by an Australian builder I can't recall. I had a Rockhopper mini 3 I loved and sold, missed it, bought another, never use it. It is a great amp, I think, but I'm trying to reduce to a single portable I'm not using anyway. The Mini 3 has some padding to protect an iPod on top. I can remove it if you like. Because I sold the Gamma separately the Mini 3 now has the silver screws front and back.

I have a Headroom Coda. This is the version optimized for portable use; two batteries fit in the back. This is the predecessor to the Micro series. (You can use rechargeables, but there is not charging circuit in the amp.) After I bought this one someone offered a Coda with the Desktop module; I use it as a desktop amp, so the portable version is surplus. $150 140 shipped ConUS.

For all these amps I much prefer PayPal. Shipping to the continental US is much easier and cheaper. I may consider shipping abroad, with appropriate additional fees. Where there are chargers involved they are designed for US voltages.
