dont know how many headphone users use this forum.
i am currently trialling the Project Ember headphone amp http://www.garage1217.com/index.html
this came about due to becoming a member of a new diy audio forum http://diyah.boards.net/

just thought i would throw this out there as, in my very humble opinion, its a fantastic friendly forum and an awesome little amp.
if anyone is interested please take a look.;)

The Garage 1217 amps are superb, Frans has designed some great sounding kit in my opinion.

I personally have a Project Horizon, kit, so I had the pleasure of building it myself.
Currently using it with a pair of Sennheiser HD650.

I have a selection of tubes for it, favourite so far is a 1965 Mullard ECC82

Anyone dithering, just buy one. Either pre built or kit, you'll not be disappointed.

as soon as i kick the arse out of my credit card bill, i will be buying an Ember (pre-built).
i believe they are working on an improved psu too! :)
fantastic value/ performance imo

Just emailed Jeremy and Frans to enquire about the PSU, hopefully it will not be too long a wait.
