From just looking in the past half an hour, I have realised that the ODAC does not have any documentation for DIYers, you can only purchase completed or partially completed kits. With the Gamma, what does the Gamma2 add to the Gamma1, does it make it much better quality sound?- HarryOMalley

Hi both thanks for your replies. That's what I was thinking, although the Gainclone is good sounding with speakers I didn't know whether it would transfer to headphones too... Have you heard what the O2 Amps sound like? They seem like a good route to go down.- HarryOMalley
