I wanna to make a complaint here... to bro yuheng and pcwork tongue.gif tongue.gif . They both are seriously dangerously poisoning. If you don't believe me, go look for them and talk to them and you will know what I mean. Especially bro pcwork! I brought my MS-1 for him to mod the cable upgrade, don't know why and I never ever requested him to show me his rigs, but he was kind enough and brought along some poisonous rigs into my car, he even let me try his own upgraded ms1, but I never try it due to time restriction, and I don't think simply trying it in the car will conclude anything much anyway. we had about 30mins talks of bla bla bla of lots of thing (very nice talking with), and now.............I'm not only in deep tempting getting the secret amp or the D10 (which ever first, thanks to yuheng's poison), also pcwork's huge caps for his ipod imod make me tempting too...........I've yet seen yuehng's and pcworks other rigs, so, see, how poisonous they are!

brows.gif brows.gif and bro yuheng, wait for my visit once i got back my repaired livewires, shipping on the way and will be next week! I really really hope the secret amp can match my ultra sensitive livewires at low gain, or else it will be quite pointless if it is too loud even at very low volume.

Presmo, no turning back went you listen to it.. make sure you enough "bullet" to cure you lerr...

tried the Secret Amp, already order 1 from bro Yuheng, it is indeed an extremely poisoning device. Just looking at the casing and options of switches I already got some poison. Then, when I put on my earphones without the Secret switch turn on, the poison in my body has gone deeper, then when bro turn the Secret switch on, walau, that is how bro Yuheng do the poisoning trick, I was seriously poisoned! Poison from top to toe, ke ke ke. Next week got to chase bro yuheng for my new amp already, ke ke ke.

However, to be frank, if without going his place, i really never know his rigs proven my rigs not reaching audiophile grade yet! And know I've a lot more experience of how headphone can properly sound! Thanks bro pcwork for your sharings, your nuclear trap really make me die kau kau deserving it, ka ka ka ka.

I really like the Secret Amp, no regret, simply awesome for such a highly portable amp! However, my preference might be difference from others. So far, I actually prefer low gain with secret switch off and with the crossfeed turned to minimum for both of my very efficient headphones. I don't have high impedance headphones to try the secret switch and crossfeed yet, so, I can't comment that I prefer the secret amp with high gain and with the secret switch on nor playing with the crossfeed. However, with everything turned off, I really thrilled with the performance and the purity of this tiny beast, simply awesome! rclxms.gif rclxms.gif rclxms.gif

Bro pcwork, I will be calling you bloody regular till I find an Ipod 4G and modded into pcmod. drool.gif drool.gif drool.gif drool.gif

Hi
srry for all of the delayed.
we been using most of the brand for reference when we built the amp.
The sound tuning parts was processed for more than 5 months.
it paired extremely well with all of the middle range headphone. like Ms2i,HD650,DT990, also some higher range headphone, like Darth beyer.

we been using Sennheiser, Beyer, Audio Technica, Alresandro AKG for headphone signature tuning.
as for IEM, we been using UE, Westone, Crossroads, Ety, kplisch, Jays, and etc.

there is no reference amp being used as comparison, coz as far as we are concerned, the amp sound better than / on par with any amp when we are comparing with other amp.

We been compared with The Hornett, Xin Reference, Iqubes, Pico and predators...and etc.
As for its special point, it have a signatures switchers, where u can get both signatures within the amp.
Also, the amp is pushable from 16phm to 600 ohm. biggrin.gif
I hope my reply answer ur question. Thanks biggrin.gif

whoever have enough experience auditing what sounds nice and what sounds bad, will definitely find that Secret Amp is really a good sounding amp! Just try it, and you will know...........

i not sure either my pk1 is burned in or not.
however. channel separation and soundstage still a step better than pk2.
but pk2 is much forward. everythings slam in your face type. good for blasting some music.

it is true, but RM500 is not cheap ler sweat.gif sweat.gif sweat.gif

I recently had the opportunity to audition the secret amp rclxms.gif

Paired it with my Ms-2's and my oh my....they really sang  cool.gif  using a combination of songs from my player plus bro yuheng's songs, I find the vocals really clear, sweet and smooth (Faye Wong songs), then we heard to the classic Hotel California by the Eagles.....oh, the separation and detail of the guitars and drums on the opening minute or two were simply superb! Then we shifted to some slow unplugged songs where yuheng turned off the secret switch and suddenly everything became more relaxed and had a 'tubey' feeling if i may use that term smile.gif

My impressions are that the Secret Amp has fantastic detail and separation and it really focuses on vocals smile.gif
Add in the secret switch and crossfeed functions, it's just icing on a very delicious cake

Last but not least, many many thanks to yuheng for letting me go over to his place and listen to his secret amp notworthy.gif

I agree with what you say to, it is really refine, and I personally find everything turn off with low gain is best for my Livewires and MS1, but when I want it aggressive, the secret switch and the crossfeed is there ready to play with.
