Has anyone ever heard this XM3 amp before? Anyone own one and tested it against the Ray Samuels Hornet,or the ShellBrook Labs Maxi & Mini Moy Signatures, an AE1, or anything? Looks interesting and isnt expensive at all for all the features it has. One 9v battery. Hmmmm.....

One of the members B-Side-J bought one and submitted his review for the mods to post on the full review amplifier section, but it has yet to surface in the searches yet.

This was a couple of weeks ago.

B-Side around?

A lot of interest in this one. Myself being in the mix.

I sent them an email a few minutes ago to see if they would set the gain at 4 without the jumpers and 8 with the jumpers. When/if they respond I will post their answer.

Besides that it looks very promising.

I have been meaning to re-write my review but just havent had time

I'll work on it tonight if I can.
But for now I'll say that it is quite well built, sounds nice( a bit bright for my tast with my rig) and the features are usfull and effective. I would say that for the price it is well worth the $.

Shoot me a questions and I'll do my best to answer them!

I'll do my best to do a real review asap

If its bright,then it wont work with my grados. Maybe good for when i get senns. Thanks for the info though. Waiting for that review!

I just bit the bullet and ordered one. I had James set the gain at +6dB with a +10dB with the jumper. It should get here next week and I will post my thoughts on it.

By the way I went with those gains as a means og being able to set the volume at something other than 1 when using my Grado's
