QUAD PA-One Valve Headphone Amplifier and DAC
It's a real nice amp, especially on HD600, 650, etc. If it's new that's a nice deal right there. I've owned LOTS of expensive headphones. I'm happy now with my HD600's on a good amp.- Jodet

Original owner perfect condition Quad headphone amp/line stage. This is a spectacular piece of gear. It's built like a tank, all the switches, volume pot, etc are all really solid. Sound quality is off the charts, particularly with a headphone that likes tubes like the Sennheiser's. The DAC is...- Jodet

Lake People G108 impressions?
No news? I'm thinking either this or the $500 more Violectric. I like the balance knob on the G108.- Jodet

Suggestions for an amp for me?
Looking for an amp with two RCA inputs and 1/4" and XLR headphone outputs. If the Headamp GS-Mini had two RCA inputs instead of one RCA and one XLR that would be perfect. Might consider one RCA input and one DAC input if the DAC is VERY GOOD. All comments welcome.- Jodet

Sennheiser HD 660S2 thread
My thoughts exactly. And they give it more bass when what it really needs is a wider soundstage. I don't see this knocking the Sundara off its pedestal.- Jodet

Focal meets Hifiman
I've solved this by having a pair of Focals for Kraftwerk, Daft Punk, etc, and Arya's for classical and film scores.- Jodet

The Amazing Audio Research I50 integrated with headphones is way better than expected.
Don't know about Germany, but if you're talking about the U.S. you are just flat out 100% wrong. American tube amp companies are not required to have people send their amps in for biasing. 45 years ago Conrad Johnson had a little LED on the top of their amp that you could use to set the...- Jodet

The Amazing Audio Research I50 integrated with headphones is way better than expected.
Read the manual. It says 'if you replace a tube you need to send it to Audio Research to have a technician adjust it'. In other words.... we want $530 to replace your power tubes. They should give these away, they'll make it all up in service fees. It's astonishing to me that in 2022 a...- Jodet

The VA-One is a 'built like a tank' Quad headphone and speaker tube amp with a built-in dac. I bought it to use as a headphone amp and it is outstanding at that. I love a good tube headphone amp. There is a built-in dac which is good enough, but my Chord is better and I've used it through...- Jodet

This is the famous Gilmore Lite MK2 headphone amp and includes their new $300 outboard power supply. I'm not a big 'outboard power supply' kinda guy, but this power supply is a huge improvement.
