i received a Micro Amp with the Desktop Module form Headroom yesterday & it has been burning in overnight & it is a winner, imo. the gain switch is perfect for switching from senn 650's to grados. the amp has moved to top position of battery amps, imo, at least for the time being. it is quite an acheivement on Headroom's part considering all the competition of all the new portable amp models that have hit the market in the last couple of years. the clarity, midrange warmth & detail, highs & lows are excellent as is the soundstage. piano clarity & detail are strikingly good. the best piano i have heard yet in a portable amp. there is no additional cost for the optional desktop module which takes the amp from pretty good to petty damn good. a wall wart is included, either 110 or 230 & the amp has crossfeed whether you want it or not. the package price is very reasonable for what you get.
if i ever use a computer as a source i would probably have to give serious consideration to Headroom's Desktop Amp, DAC & outboard power supply unit. i never listen to music from computers but i had a chance to hear the Headroom Desktop Amp & DAC with a computer & i may have to seriously think about a computer as a source. the sound was surprisingly good.
