Awesome amp, purchased here a few months ago after trying out a few different ones. I would keep it but settled on a tube system instead. The amp sounds amazing - very clean and resolving, yet warm and musical. It looks great with just a couple small marks on the faceplate. It includes four rubber pads to elevate the amp unit by a couple extra millimeters when mounted on top of the power supply. I haven't noticed any additional noise vs. mounting them side by side, so have always used them stacked.

This amp includes the ALPs volume pot (rare), so you’re in luck if you don’t like the 24-click variety. Full disclosure: there is a static sound when turning (and only when turning) the volume knob. Getting it positioned is a little fiddly (but not bad at all), and once there the static disappears. According to Justin at HeadAmp, it's a $400 replacement for a new volume pot. All in all, this is a great opportunity to get into a high performing flagship amp at a very reasonable price.

Price includes PayPal fee and shipping to CONUS.

Tremendous value. Control volume with your DAC (or anything else) and you should be unaffected by the volume knob issue. Outstanding price to performance ratio!

Heck, if I didn’t already have an amp that is really similar, I’d go for it…

The static is only when changing the volume it's a feature of all the Alps versions
that’s not true - just keeping it real.
