headphonecrazy 0 Report post Posted December 26, 2003 I had a headroom cosmic before, prices are a little ex, construction n quality ok, but imho the Meier Cordas are better value for money. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jasonhanjk 0 Report post Posted December 26, 2003 www.headsave.com They also have various type of amp mainly PPA and PIMETA are the popular one nowadays. For local delights, tropical build some Cmoys at a reasonable price. As for me I build PPA. You can ask us to let you have some try ons. AND Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

hayc 0 Report post Posted December 26, 2003 thanks guys for the warm welcome and friendly advice. am i correct to say that if i'm not concerned with portability, i shd be looking at the PPA rather than the Cmoy? ...and what other amps are available locally? tropical/jason: yes, wld certainly like to try out your amps. how do i contact you guys? thanks and sorry for all the newbie qns!

jasonhanjk 0 Report post Posted December 26, 2003 what's your budget? Hung Brothers at SLS does have some head amps to try out what's avail for 300 or less at Hung Bros? I think the creek amp is around $450. Remember someone says yuck.... maybe I add another ptui.... I don't recommend commercial amp below S$1000 (rough value) because some of the amp inside uses component of low quality and easily beaten by DIY amp at a cheaper value. Just my 2 cents...
