Diva Headphone Amp

Recommended Posts

Very sorry to everyone that is expecting a follow-up on this thread, very busy in work as well as trying out some small tweaks on my setup recently. I have checked with dealer who in turn checked with the amp designer on the inner pic of the amp. They have agreed and had sent me some pic to my another email account which I have not got time to read.

 

Will let everyone see the 'undressed' amp...anyway it doesn't look nice in 'dress' either. tongue.gif

 

 

To: Abs0,

 

it's not a hp stand but a cup hanger actually. biggrin.gif And would like to know from you if you have ever tried the H650+Cardas combo before? Thanks!

Yup I know it's a cup hanger, but it serves as a hp stand pretty well too, I must say. wink.gif

 

I have not tried the HD650+Cardas, why? I actually sold the HD600+Cardas shortly after I received the HD650+Zu.

Reason is that I still don't quite adjust to the sonic of HD650+Zu, I am looking for an alternative cable for the HD650.

You might want to consider the Blue/Silver Dragon besides the Cardas. I haven't really heard the HD650 with any other cable (not even stock) so I can't really comment.

Charismatic,

do you mind showing porn of your PSU too..thanks happy.gif

You 'horny' wacko.gif people, everything also wants 'nake'. tongue.gif

 

Suggest you check with the shop Sky Audio at Bukit Timah Plaza, you can see the 'real' thing(demo set) rather than on the 'nude' photo. tongue.gif

The guy at Sky Audio wasn't willing to open it up the last time I was there with a couple of friends. Perhaps one day someone who's willing to undo a few screws and take a couple of pictures will buy one.

Hi everyone,

 

As requested by some 'horny' forumers, here's the nake, looks normal to me.

 

I think more importantly is the other aspect of amp design such as physical balancing of the eqpt(one of the design aspect advocated by Diva) as well as the sound tuning by the amp designer himself.

Neat! I like the look of the tubes. Too bad they aren't visible unless you open up the amp.
