I AM CRYING RIGHT NOW FROM THE JOY I FEEL OF LISTENING TO MY MUSIC!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I was expecting something great out of this, instead I got something amazing. I just got the upgraded mini RCA Cardas IC and HD650 Cardas cables for my HD580 set. I have had this beautiful looking Pimeta amp sitting on my desk but unable to use it until this day.

The cables look amazing with the shielding and sleeving job that Soloz did and matched with the perfect looking Pimeta amp I could absolutely not be happier. (I use that term loosely as I assume I can still burn in a few pieces of my equipment and tweak a little more.)

I am ecstatic! All of my completed details are in my sig finally. The only piece left is the Beyerdynamic cushioned headband that will be arriving soon.

Amazing, I've been using a Pimeta (ad8620ar op-amp and the buf634 buffer along with wima caps and cerafine main filter caps and alps volume pot) with my cardas cabled HD-600's for a little over a year now, and I absolutly love the sound. Before the amp I almost gave up on the HD600's but it's now a main-stay in my office setup.

Glad to see another Pimeta user enjoying the hell out of this fantastic DIY project.

The amp and power supply were designed by "i has a can" and "colonelkernel8" recapped it and made the case for it (which is amazing).


My soldering ability is absolutely terrible so I thank both of these people for doing such a great job on this amplifier. My thanks also goes out to Soloz for making such amazing cables. I am one happy guy!
