when i was lookin a few years ago at diy headphone amps they were all like 400-500 boms lol

though i think i was looking at a beta 22

lol that

i was looking into that recently

seems interesting

the aliexpress or the beta22?

the JHL 1969

i own a beta 22 lol

gotta sell it

yea ppl on diyaudio like it

the hood?

yea

that kit is probably a toned down version of the actual clone

i suppose the top end diy stuff are those stax amps lol

the clone does 10W, and i doubt theyd put that into a preamp

i highly recommend you doing a diy-t2 as your first amplifier. More than one person has done this. If you survive you will learn a lot

lol

lool

looks usper complex

its mostly smd

it'd be easy as fuck if you've got practice with smd

isnt stax like high voltage

just would end up being time consuming

yes

very

i think some are even a few kilavolt

idk what current that would be at tho so it doesnt really mean a whole lot

The SRM-T2 had a maximum output voltage of 630V. Yes I know its a beast!

kek

high voltage = high fidelity!!!!1!!

those diy stax amps are appreantly the best stax amps you can get period though

lol

the circlotron boards are 900V

900V

lmao
