cosmopragna tried the RKV and proclaimed it a failure (without the TR-2). the story will be the same with any speaker amplifier or headphone amplifier. you need to think about electrostatic type power for the H2. Normal headphones like lots of current, the H2 like volts, this is the reason for the transformer and the reason for having to specially design this amp output with the other company.
Dr Kevin Gilmore has taken an interest in developing an amplifier design for the H2, possibly based on a variant of one of his electrostatic amp designs.
Very excited about all of the interest there has been here, I look forward to the wellspring of impressions from those head-fiers who have taken the plunge.
