Hey Nik, are you still trying to sell your HD600?

I'm still saving up for a pair.

Anyway, I wanted to ask you, have you ever thought about using a vinyl/analogue source?

 

[Nik]

The old R-10H is dead, the two output transformers of the R-10H are now in the black box in the left side of the new amp. The two little tubes in the first central place are the 6C45 of the R-10H, the pot ALPS RK50 is the same the rest is totally new.
The amp is totally tubeb voltage regulated. I'll tell you more detailles when in my house.


HappymaN:

The HD 600 is SOLD! Sorry!

As you know I have the LINN SONDEK CD 12 and I never listened any source that can to compare with this equipment... even analogical sources....

This system is scary given that a Sennheiser Orpheus rec retail is $14,900.

So I guess the R10s are just that good. Enjoy your new amp Nik! Although I have some reservations because those headphones that the amp were tested with look cheap. I guess it shouldn't matter if it all sounds good in the end.

You're gonna need some serious belt clips for that baby.

 

[HD-5000]

I approve

If I had that much money I know I wouldn't have your dedication.
Great lookin amp.

I hate to dig up this old thread, but Nik's amp is on sale at audiogon for $5K.

Ok you R10 owners out there, who will be the first to bite?

 

[tom hankins]

Well, That is truly an amazing looking headphone amp.

Jatinder has that amp now! He hasn't posted about it... must be to busy enjoying it. :r10:

Nik, I'm curious why you chose to go with the black metal look for the new amp rather than a wooden case like the R-10H? That was truly beautiful! Did you go for the metal to reduce RF interference?

 

[daycart1]

That amp wasn't good enough for Nik? What is the new project?

 

[Nik]

Hey friends,

wait only one week and you will see an incredible monster, never seen before...

My definitive amp is in the last building details: each little details are at the highest level.

The designer told me that this new model (two box) will be a new frontier in headphone listening. The separated power supply weight 40Kg! and the amp 15Kg! The animal needs 800W of power. The output transformers have a linear responce 12-80.000 hz. (totally hand made). 20 tubes for power supply...

A little of patience and I'll tell you about the new Ansgtrom.

A man from Japan has ordered this amp, (that will be the 002 serial number) at 20.000 €

See you soon!!!!!!!
