The HeadAmp GS-X and GS-X MK2 Thread
Nov 15, 2018 at 9:47 AM Post #5,986 of 6,325
Does anyone know how much power the GSX MK2 has. I seem to recall reading 3w unbalanced and 6 w balanced but now I can’t find it on their web site. Thanks

Those values are correct, and I believe that's for 32 ohms.

Well, I am old school so............ silver.
It's four months old. I have been tempted for several months and looking on the net for a while but no luck.
Earlier this week, just by luck saw one being advertised and did an impulse purchase.
Initially thought, "What have I done...!" But now so excited...and happy.

Has anybody tried the ZMF Ori planar headphone with this amp ?

I am quite excited to hear this combo paired with the Holo Spring L3

My other headphones at the moment are ZMF Atticus / Senn HD800 / Grado 225i

I've drove both the Abyss 1266/Phi CC 1266 with the GS-X and I currently use the HE1000V2 without any issues whatsoever. I've also owned 6se (for a short time) the 800S/6XX and had no problems driving them as well. So you have no need to worry about driving planar/inefficient headphones wit the GS-X!

Hi Joseph.

I know the amp will power pretty much any headphone, I was just interested if anyone here had actually heard the ZMF Ori with this amp.

I know I will not have to worry about power with this amp.

Do you listen to moderate volume levels or very high volume?

The GSX-Mk2 has made its way to me. I just hooked it up and started to listen.

I have been a tube guy for quite some time now, so I will save the impressions until after I have listened for awhile.

A couple things for sure, it is a beautiful amp and the back round is as black as midnight.
