think he means:

if you are using 600ohms headphone, use the O2 amp with an AC adapter.

if not, then use it with batteries and the amp is sure to fascinate you.

Thats the thing. Way too open ended. Dont really understand the true meaning.

i'm interested to review this, but i'm in johor tongue.gif

got pimeta to compare this amp to

How much to build/ buy pimeta?

If the price of the amp falls within the amount that i have, i might consider buying it to test out. Spend too much already. Anyway how is the speed? Im in seriious need of a fast amp for my jh. What 600 ohm headphone you have tested now.

i think the only 600ohmers i know of are the DT770/880/990 series and T1. HE-5 / HE-6 & LCD-2 are power hungry (low efficiency) but are not 600ohms.

using standard components recommended by tangent, maybe around 300-400.

but if using lipo battery and custom enclosure (like i did), you might ended up in the RM600 price range tongue.gif

using ad8620, pimeta is very neutral and transparant. neutral with a hint of brightness. speed is very good. no hiss even with phonak or my low impedance im716

i once owned RSA Protector and to me pimeta is the better amp brows.gif

plus, this thing drives my hd580 effortlessly with ipod as the source brows.gif brows.gif


hongrui, if you have o2, please let me try it for some time tongue.gif

Wish that it isn't the Tenor chip,but think it's possibly the TI or XMOS.....although Nwavguy didn't mention at his blog

Opps,i mean the USB DAC chip,NOT the LOD... blush.gif

Already got a complete 96/24 USB DAC on my design desk,but no time to implement it.... sad.gif ,O2 come first.... rclxms.gif
