Ti, sorry for the trouble!

But guess its better to get it right, so I don't have to use an adapter cable.

Ti,

I might have one and can check for you tonight if you like.

Other than perhaps amb's Dynahi, that is the best looking headphone amplifier (including professionally made stuff) I have ever seen. You are very lucky krmathis.

Feature & aesthetically wise and I think this is the "ultimate" B22 ever built.

With this great amp perhaps krmathis will change some of his beloved stax gear for dynamics headphones...

Verified, its the same as the stock.

I already have a great dynamic headphone. Hint: K1000
...god knows if there will be more.

Not going to sell any of my Stax'en though (ok the SR-404 may go some day).

That's ok, it just means that I get to keep this amp a bit longer.

 

[amphead]

Wow! I'm seeing the amp/PS finished for the first time as well. Certainly raises the bar for the DIY community. It's as beautiful as the Beta24, only in a smaller package. I don't think that Krmathis will mind a slight delay. Well, on the other hand maybe it's unbearable.

 

[UglyJoe]

You guys, this is just awesome.

amb, I'm assuming that you've at least given this a shot as a preamp with your B24... how is it? Gots to know.

Actually I haven't. This build does not have XLR preamp outputs, and the headphone out combo jacks are the wrong gender for a preamp out (and I didn't wire up the ground pin on them).

I have no doubt that when wired up appropriately, this would make a great preamp for the β24, but I am currently driving the β24 straight out of my Benchmark DAC1.

I just had an evil thought, though, how about a downsized β24 as a preamp?

 

[Grahame]

Awesome build, a true work of art, and I'm going to be lucky enough to see it up close and personal at Burning Amp. Sweet.

Ron,
Its already almost unbearable as it is. I do my best to cope with it, and think I am doing quite fine...

You guys take your needed time, and I will be even more excited when I get my hands on it.

Grahame, your so lucky.

Wish I could get up there, too bad I'll just have to settle for the socal meetup...

 

[fordgtlover]

This build is awesome. I am proud to be part of such a fantastic project.

The build team should be very proud.

Totally agree. Looking forward to see and hear it on our next meet, hopefully sometime in the near future
