Hi. I was looking into various simple DIY headphone amps specifically for current hungry low impedance cans such as Grados or in my case 24 ohm Sony XB700.
I came across the Apheared A47 amp and it looked interesting; nice and simple. However it got me thinking about building something similar except replacing the second opamp with a voltage unity-gain tube buffer in order to have a simple high-current hybrid amp.
Now I'm pretty new at this and could use a few pointers...such as which sorts of tubes should I be looking at, and why shouldn't I do this..etc?
Thanks
Here's the A47 info if you've not heard of it:
