    The equation is simple. HD600 is nominal 300Ω Let's assume that we need 1w of power. From Ohms law we get 17.32 Volt and 0.057 A. This...

    BHC = Bottlehead Crack (+Speedball). The kit is $430. Sounds very tubish and colored but it also has a sound like nothing else I heard.

    The O2 is the worst sounding amp I listened to. Is that your impression as well? Which amps did you contrast it with and liked better at...
