evil-zen 0 Report post Posted June 22, 2003 i don't think you would want to build a v2SE. it has stepped attentuator as volume control and the price of it alone is enough to scare you away. anyway the original headwize article by kevin gilmore. http://headwize2.powerpill.org/projects/sh...ilmore3_prj.htm Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jasonhanjk 0 Report post Posted June 23, 2003 I know... Ah well the schemactic is really very easy to design and thus making the PCB is also very easy. Can be done with those proto board bought from SLT too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Blues 0 Report post Posted June 24, 2003 today went to evil's house (full of evil ) jk of course lol my impression is that the gilmore is very powerful SS amp and it's very smooth as well. Has 'legato' (courtersy of rameish ) , compared to the ha-1. The bass also goes deeper and the soundstage is wider and more enveloping/captures more ambience. Very nice amp. But I don't see myself upgrading to it soon, unfortunately. Upz to you folks out there who are considering the gilmore Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rameish 0 Report post Posted June 24, 2003 (edited) Hmm, I 'm curious Guy, Evil just sent me a PM saying that "Just now guyferd was here to test out his HA1 and both of us agreed that gilmore is better being more dynamic, controlled bass and soundstage. but only slightly. I also tested his beyer 880 with my setup and I found that it fits pretty well. doesn't have the sibilance it has with Mackie's MF cdp and X cans. on overall it has what i've been looking for so far with cans." However your impression seems to be more than slightly better - care to elaborate. Anyways, I'll be hearing it for myself this Saturday - with the Zotl. Amp shootout this Saturday - Corda HA-2 vs Gilmore V2 vs Zotl - I would like to invite Mackie, Oak and Tee as well but my place to too small - maybe just 2 more guys. Ablaze you're as always welcome.
