Okay, here's my new reference headphone amp. The Trafomatic Head 3, sporting one of my all time favorite tubes
the 811-10. it weighs a ton, but what it does to my Susvara and my Utopias is taking all my time.


Cant find any details on this - can you share a link?

No link yet, but I'll forward one as they update their site.

However, this is a production model, simply a new one. The headphones puts out 10 watts at 50 ohms. As mentioned the output tube is the 811.10

It is called the Head 3 in keeping with Trafomatics previous headfi amps. I think it will be shown next month at the meet in NY...not confirmed yet, but

80% chance. Source will be the Vermeer 2.

@ohmicide I wanted to spend £20 max, but the quality of stands going for that price were... questionable. Just couldn't bring myself to buy something that wasn't 'quality'. Well, if it's any consolation, this thing's made out of aluminium and weighs a lot more than I was expecting it to! Should be safe from fluffy tails, and in the event it does get knocked over, I'd be more worried about the headphones it's holding than the stand

I bit the bullet :grin:

You really weren't kidding about how solid this thing is. You'd have to knock over the entire table for it to fall off. That and the overall quality of the stand make this well worth the price. Really glad I didn't cheap out!

Big tube amps have such a dynamic physical presence. Makes you want to drive one, like wondering about a car. Congratulations!
