Portable Headphone Amp Kit with Korg NuTube
Flash back to mid-2017 and you may remember the super cool "NuHybrid" Headphone Amp that Pete Millett designed around the Korg NuTube. If you're not already familiar with the NuTube, the current model is called the 6P1, which is a thoroughly-modern, dual, very low power, directly-heated triode...- HiGHFLYiN9

My Millett "Starving Student" Hybrid headphone amplifier, sitting atop the Audio-gd NFB-12. The enclosure I used for my MSSH is almost the same size as the NFB-12. It's the Hammond 1455T2201. I installed orange LEDs inside the tube sockets, but I used low intensity LEDs so they are useless. The tube- KimLaroux

My Millett "Starving Student" Hybrid headphone amplifier. The whole circuit was built using Point to Point wiring. I designed and built a 48v linear regulated power supply for the amplifier. The transformer and the cubic heat sink beside it are part of the PSU. I built Faraday cages around the tubes- KimLaroux

Finished assembling the power supply in the new enclosure. Since the case is shorter than the clear plastic one I had, the original layout did not fit. I rebuilt the power supply from the ground up. I placed the capacitors so they shield AC from the rest of the circuit.- KimLaroux

AC side of the power supply is wired. This build doesn't use all the transformer's tabs, but I still kept them just in case I want to re-use this transformer in another project. The blue wires are a 6v secondary, isolated from the main secondary, that I will probably use to power LEDs in the tube so- KimLaroux

Hi there, I did a lot of reading lately (great forum btw) but still cannot decide on what amp should I get for my HD650. The biggest decision factors are: 1. I have around $350 to spend. 2. I have sensitive ears, esp to high frequencies and high volume. 3. I like deep, extended...- metrathon

Volume knob DIY question
I have a Millett Max that I want to swap out the volume knob on. I see that most stock and eBay knobs that fit on the Alps pot are using a set screw. What if the object to be used as a volume knob does not allow for the set screw hole to be drilled? It could be a rock, or a...- mcgsxr

Inexpensive amp for DT880/600
Thinking about picking up a pair of DT880/600, but I know that they need an amp to sound best. The price ($300 shipped to Canada) is already pushing my original budget beyond what I hoped to spend, but I figure they are probably worth it instead of buying something cheaper (like the SHR840s...- Wirbel
