Where can I order one of these? $100-ish isn't too expensive at all.

Would this be a good introduction to the world of tube amps

? I've never owned tubes before.

 

[nsx_23]

Anyone?

i have the little dot MKII and it is quite a fun to try different tubes and i think it is a great introduction to tube sound for cheap....Little dot customer service and built quality is top notch, really....if the I+ will comply to the same standards...it will be a great amp...especially for low impedance phones, actually my MKII can output 100mW at 32 ohms...the I+ is capable of 800MW....it should be a GREAT amp for grados andd similar...that's why i am waiting reviews and opinions

nsx 23....go to little dot forum and inquire there or email David from the eBay store...either one will get you the info you require.


Peete.

I think there hasn't been an overwhelming number of responses to your question because nobody has one yet. But, my bet is on the I+ to be a great introduction to the world of tube/hybrid amps....especially at this price point & with a nice little grouping of tube families to choose from.

I know I've been licking my chops in anticipation & looking forward to the potential of what it will have to offer.

I think this would probably be the ultimate "starving student" amp. Great low low price. I would spend the extra for the tube upgrade IMO.

Well, I'm weak. I ordered one. It should go nice with my A900's.

Do you guys think it would power my 2003 dt880 250 ohm alright? I'm trying to find a decent tube amp that's <$170, preferrably as cheap as I can while still sounding good haha.

At 250 ohms you may be better off with the Little Dot MK II or MKIII. Plus your bright and sparkly beyers may benefit from the more tubey sound signature of the aforementioned tube amps.

*EDIT*

This does however, sound like THE perfect amp for Grados.

Hmm alright, thanks for the help Woobies

Any thoughts on this amp with the Denon D5000? Currently listening to them out of the upgraded iBasso D1.

 

[Meliboeus]

it should be a good amp, since the D5000 are low impedance phones, but we are speculating too much here...let's wait for some impressions by the headfiers who have already bought the amp...

 

[Seba]

When I get my amp, I can give you impressions with RS-1, D2000 and MS-1 atleast. If I still have RS-2's that time I will post impressions with that also.

Just got an email from David that my amp is on it's way to Finland!

My unit will come with 6J1's and EF92's.

 

[Woobies]

Sweet! Looking forward to your impressions
