I asked Jan Meier that question, he said something along these lines should be fine: Conrad Electronic - System Information[1]=b2c_insert&cookie_v[1]=62&cookie_d[1]=&cookie_p[1]=%2f&cookie_e[1]=Sat%2c+12-Jan-2008+16%3a08%3a08+GMT&scrwidth=1400

Translation: up to 12V, 6W, 1000mA, stabilized, linear.

EDIT: Head-Fi's new link system doesn't seem to work with that long link, here's the "source code":

Can anyone recommend a good AC adapter? Most of my listening is done at home and it would be rather pointless for me to use batteries all the time even if the batt life is 100hrs. Plus I'd rather have 12v ac vs. a 9v battery.

Battery is a better sounding option. Audiophiles spend a lot of money in order to get clean AC/current.

Enjoy the long battery life
Cheers

I was wondering if anybody tried the Headsix with Yuin PK1s. I've been really interested in a pair of PK1s since i cant ever get a good fit on anything else but buds. Its a nightmare! I wanted to know if the Headsix would be able to drive the PK1s fine without me having to pop it open and change the gain.

Thanks fellas!

Really considering the Headsix - anyone know how it would compare to the Xenos 1HA-EPC? I regretfully sold mine and may purchase another. I'll be using the amp primarily with Grado SR60's and I'm thinking the sonic signature of the Headsix might be a good match.

I'm talking about pure sound quality differences between the two. Anyone listened to both?????

Thanks in advance!!!!

Yep that's soundstage - the music extending outside your head. Welcome to the obsession.

My Headsix just arrived today! 11 days from Germany to Shanghai - not bad. It's way to early to comment - maybe an hour in. But based on no burn in, I will say that Headsix - H140 line out - Triple-fi's is sounding like a promising combination...

Alright, I've read through this thread twice. So do I understand that the Headsix sounds pretty much identical to the Move?

I understand the circuits are similar, without a "high current mode" and some features that I don't care about. Not sure I understand what that might mean unless is means it would be difficult to drive phones like the senn650.

Most of what I have to go on regarding sound quality is from Skylabs review of the Move. If the Headsix sounds as good as the move I'll take the plunge. If I can't get a good feeling for that then I'll go with a used Xenos 1HA which I KNOW sounds good (although they are out of business).

I know that some have said it should sound as good as the Move but if anyone could comment on direct comparison between the Headsix and Move that would be great.

Thanks,

Rich

It is simply without the "high current mode" and also the Crossfeed circuit. Otherwise it does sound the same.

 

[cooperpwc]

Never head the MOVE. After 10+ hours of burn in, it is already doing a wonderful job of driving my Darths.

Wow, a great amp at a fair price - helping head-fi to boot. Awesome!

People said they sound very similar. You lose a bit of features, but it is slightly smaller also which is a plus.

 

[goodluck4u]

I orderd the headsix a few days ago.

Perhaps, my headsix is flying on the sky

BTW, how much does the headsix synagy with ER-4s? Although I guess it is no problem, I would like to know about it.

Where can I buy one ;O

Check the first post in this thread... you will marvel at the wealth of information there.
