Heed canamp has won the hearts of many headfiers. It is becoming one of best value for money home SS amps. It even trounces the goodness of Music fidelity V3 which belongs to tube sector.
Its simplicity in circuit topology always fascinating! (classA)
I was one of the first who imagined the potential of modding the amp as it uses, non-audiophile components and a power supply, which has lot of potential for improvement (snubberized Power supply) not to mention the OP Amp Rolling!

Though I have seen many attempts at modding this wonderful amp after, I do not know how much of objective improvements have been achieved by the modifiers!

Heed CanAmp mods.
The last link shows PINKFLOYDS experience and ideas about the subject. It's a pity we do not have him here now as he is one of the pioneer members, who modded the can amp first
[size=medium]So can it be really modded to have improvement in SQ? Do they give moddifiers just placebo pleasure?[/size]
As The theory in electronics can be quite different from the results we need a database of user experience and views of the PRO's who modded the canamp. so post your views and Mods here for the benefit of everyone!!!

Heed audio has gathered many experience in the field of audio engineering, I know some of their theories. Basically, there is a *very* high chance that with modding you would null this knowledge built in their product not knowing the reasons for a particular solution. |
