"its been a long time since I rock and rolled"!!!
I have been away working so have not realy listened to The amp. But its been cooking nice and slow... It must have over 500 hours of use so far from a radio input.
Since the original amp was made a few changes have been made... One was the LED!!! god they are bright !!!! so i have a night/day switch!!
As the HD600's have been well an truly burnt in and the "IXOS GAMMA" interconnect also I spent some time last night and this morning listening to my favourite tracks.
The Chiarra is very fast and stable. I have learnt to listen to headphones without trying to find "Speakers" in the room!!!
I played some Biily idol that is well recorded and found the sound to realy work. Ok will never have the full stage of speakers ... But works well.
Would I reccomend this amp....??? yes why not. Its well put together . The kit is well priced and I imagine easy to build (Richard??)
I would use the opamp that richard used and a few minor changes to caps etc.
So with out too much "Mungo jumbo" I love it... Its very relaxing when it should be and yet can kick your teeth in when reqired..but in a very controlled manner.
If your in london and your not sure.... contact me and come and have a listen
cheers again to Richard for all his help.
