What exactly is a "Kenrs1 Big Super CMOY"?

Its a DIY amp I bought from a fellow audiophile who builds and sells them locally. He doesn't have any other way to call them so I name it after him (Kenrs1) and since he calls the amp "the big one" then I call it his Big Super Cmoy amp.

Hopefully I get to try it in near future. Any chance you can provide your impression of it, that would be greatly appreciated.

that is a custom cmoy built to your preferences. its quite expensive though and they seem are buying it at a store where the sound is "fixed" than when have it made directly, you can tune the sound to your liking. thats all about it. you can even have the jacks customed as well.
 
usually those "super cmoy" tend have a warm sound to it, some of those amps have great soundstage and imaging but it depends on what capacitors used, can drive most headphones easy (except for he6, k1000, etc), and an instanely long battery life (30 hours minimum with two high impedance headphones plugged in with one of those super cmoys that i tried). it is not neutral at all.
 
it comes in 3 varations, VZero's is the one with the biggest i think, there is a two smaller versions of it and the smallest of all has about the same size as the picopower, but it doesnt have those huge capacitors inside it.

This my favorite portable setup at the moment. Such a punchy and spacey sound. True listening pleasure.

iPod 5.5G --> Just Audio AHA-120 --> Beyerdynamic T5p

Wow, how did you get the carbon fibre texture on your amp and iPod?

That is some kind of half-transparent sticker/foil
