Bottlehead kits are very well regarded over at AudioAsylum.
The Seduction phono stage especially gets a lot of talk in the VinylAsylum.
What do you guys think of the S.E.X. headphone amp?

Very happy with it. So happy I am giving the one I made to my brother, and a second one is coming by mail tomorrow or Monday.

Also, very satisfied with the post-purchase service. The delivery is long, but you get really great assistance through the forum, or a phone call.

The manual to assist you in building it is very clear, very straightforward; hard to make mistakes, although you can make a few.

Sonically it is great. I use Grado 225s, and I also plugged in Fostex 206es-r (dipole). I am so satisfied I packed my Quad 77 amp and CDP and Totem Model 1 Signatures in their boxes and live with that nice piece of DIY.

Hope this helps,
