Excellent review!

Beautifully written! I was a little curious how the FA-12 would sound with my Arya, but after reading the comparison, I’m confident I made the right choice with the FA-10.

Thank you both for your kind words!

Regarding the Arya, I guess that both amplifiers are good regarding the tonality but the extra slam and muscle of the FA-10 should definitely be welcomed.

nice review. looking at the website, i see the volot dual mono headphone amp. wow. that amp looks like a monster.

@vcoheda
Thank you.
I am looking at it and I am imagining how good must be!
I don't know maybe I can arrange a loan...

Thanks @Ichos for the write-up. Could you comment on how Ares II matched with the FA-10 and FA-12. I’m considering a combo like this and would appreciate to hear how the two amps differed while paired with the Ares II.
