duplicate question that has been answered, sorry for the post
Soon to come .....
The Kameleon filter. Basically an eq unit dedicated to your headphone following measurements by Solderdude. He measures headphone response and then makes a circuit that is plug and play to fit into the Kameleon.
I use an hd650 with it. The Kameleon slightly brightens the top end by reducing the mid bass hump and also boosting the really low bass.
The result is pretty amazing.
The Kameleon can be just linked to the Garage amps without power supply, or for other amps, it will need a supply.
I've been using a Kameleon for over a year now and find it difficult to accept headphones with proper sub bass or massive peaks until I re-burn my head in again.
It seems that pre-orders can be placed now, and not only for G1217 amps:

So if you have a Garage1217 amp already, what do you need to add Kameleon? Do you need the dock thing or just a module or what?
If you have a G1217 amp, you can buy the Kameleon in-line filter without the power supply + the desired filter modules. It will be powered from your G1217 amp's power supply and feed the amp itself though a pass-through cable. In the web it is not clear if one filter module is included with the Kameleon or not, but I am sure Jeremy will answer that question rapidly.
Had the same question for Jeremy.
Apparently you can buy the pass-through version of the Kameleon, and purchase the power supply separately down the road.
