Best looking Headphone amp?

[tom hankins]

Thanks alot Hirsch, Just when I was getting really excited about my Super Supra you have to go and run that picture. Hmmmmmmmm, I guess it would be O.K. to upgrade a month before my singlepower even gets here.

Of those I've seen (Big-O doesn't count therefore)...Sugden. I had no clue what it was first time I saw one and loved its looks (doesn't sound half bad either

).

2nd is mine ...hey I get to post pics of it again!

(Thanks Erix)

Heh, glad you like it.

Have you seen my new one?

It's meant to look like a miniature version of a Macintosh monoblock. When it's finished the top and front panel will be polished and the faux tranny covers and sides will be painted gloss black.

The circuit is the one Pete Millet published in AudioXpress and I think it's the same one Headroom will be manufacturing.

ok,

Ahh more brushed aluminum goodness.

erix: That's a simplicistic elegant approch - I like it! Though I have to admit, that I might select a different volume knob...

I also like Jan Meier's design approach - especially on his newer amps. The Grace 901 and the Rega Ear look good to me, too... And, of course, the Funk LAP-2 (http://www.funk-tonstudiotechnik.de/ABHOERSYSTEME.htm)!

Greetings from Munich!

Here's a pic of the current Headmaster. Is there an older version?
