And especially this one, which is a direct comparative assessment I made of the two units not long after I got the the modded FA-10 back:

The modder was @ksorota who resides in the US, unfortunately.

Thanks for the input. I’ll let you know when it arrives and I give it a whirl.I've been feeding it with the line out from my Astell & Kern Kann Alpha which has dual sabre DACs (ES9068AS) and it sounds amazing. The warmth of the 12s really works well with the tons of details from the DAP.

Incidentally, the mod only involved swapping the capacitors. It sounds like something you can have done for you by someone local who knows what they're doing, as long as you can order the replacement capacitors. That will remove the whole messy, and potentially expensive burden of having to ship your FA-10 overseas. If you should ever consider this option, I think @ksorota will have the right technical info about the caps and their specs.Thanks for the info

I've seen a lot of people doing comparisons between Flux Labs amps and the Rebel AMP, so I thought it would be a good idea to chime in with my review on the Rebel AMP, may come in handy to some
When you want a really awesome amplifier at around 500 USD, you totally want to know more about the Rebel AMP. As a big fan of the Rage Against The Machine, I was enthusiastic when I heard a company naming their products the Rebel AMP.
This one is green, and the color is here to stay. It also has excellent driving power for about 500 USD, pretty much enough even for HE6SE, and it works as a Pre too!
I took the time to compare it to most of the important competition, pair it with some interesting headphones, and do a full review on it! If you have any questions, I am around to help ~

It won't be 16w, I wonder how powerful it is, if it's fully balanced and how much it will cost. In other news the Volot is becoming like half life 3cross between an FA10 pro and FA12.

Just wanted to get give an update on my new flux Fa-12 with volume knob issues. Still don't have it repaired :/ They tried to send me a replacement part after I agreed to service it myself, but apparently they sent it to the wrong address. My patience is growing a little thin even though their customer support has been responsive.

If you bought the FA-12 because you wanted balanced (and I assume that’s the case) you didn’t miss out on anythingGreat, I just received shipping notification of FA-12, and heres a new version.
