I've built both a MINT and Cmoy and the Cmoy sounds better to me. Have I done something wrong? The Cmoy seems to have a lot more power in the lows, and a bigger soundstage. The MINT sounds a bit smoother, not as shrill as the Cmoy.
I should mention that I listen to horrible music with horrible production, mostly grindcore, and my favorite headphones are Beyerdynamic DT 770 Pros and Grado SR225s. Sources are iPod, and Sony D-151 and D-EJ1000.
Is it simply a matter of my bad taste, or did I screw up the MINT, or would the MINT sound a lot better with two 9 volts instead of just one? I know I've done something right because they both sound a hell of a lot better than my Total Airhead (older version).
Thanks to Tangent for the how-tos and selling MINT PCBs. I couldn't have made either amp without him.
