Hey guys!
I've been talking with Joseph over the last few days regarding the latest ASL headphone amp. Please note that it won't be a son of MG Head or an MG Head plus, it will be a whole NEW design.
So what I'm asking is that you guys contribute ideas toward what YOU would like to see in this tube amplifier. So far it's based on the design Joseph said at:

"Hey ! RGA ! Thanks for your buy of our products very much.
It is headache on packing. I'm try to improve it soon. Yes ! I start to test a New OTL Headphone amplifier. It will use 3 x 6DJ8/Channel. C4S load at cathode for 5 x 1/26DJ8 , remain 1/2 for gain stage. I hope it may be can drive down to 16 Ohm. It will be a seperated power supply. 5AR4 as rectifier , 12AX7 + KT88 as Regulator. A EI96 x 45 Power transformer. a Choke inside. 1/4" Headphone Jack x 2 . Hey ! I consider the power supply section can be siwtch to become a Power supply for Pre-amps. It will have 200V DC out to 280V DC Adjustable or 100V to 150V DC Adjustable. 6.3V x 4A for Filament. Hope it will retail at Lower than US$700. MG-Head Inside is too tighten and difficult to keep quality. We need to burn in 6BQ5 for around 48 Hours to test and select the tube. Cyber20 - I had look at his site. It outlook just like the reverse side of MG-Head. Use simuliar design as MG-Head.
12A series driver to 6BQ5. It just like a Image of MG-Head.
Also MG- series is build for Economic. So Buget is so tighten. Hey ! I had send a Headphone converter to Head-Fi for test. It will retail in very low cost , If it sound quality acceptable.
It can connect to your Integrated amps and it become a Ultra high quality transformers coupling Headphone amps. It will be less than US$100.
I'm not sure the quality of Cyber-20 but I only know when it retail in USA Price will be not cheap. "
So without any further ado please post your suggestions below. Joseph will be looking at this thread from time to time and he may accomodate your suggestion into the design. Please keep the suggestions serious and keep in mind that the price will be around $600-700USD.
