I noticed on Headamps website that the new version of the Aristaeus includes numerous improvements in parts and build quality. Has anyone here heard a V1 and V2, as to make any comparison. What parts have been changed and such? Justin or maybe the denizen electrostatic gurus. Thanks, Gary.

Where did you hear that?  My unit is SN# 18 and likely the latest of them all.

The website Purk. Not sure how long it's been up but it's pretty specific about the timetable.

that is pretty ancient now. That said, no clue re two versions, just the current one.

the improvements were made after the first batch which was up to #11 i think

this included fixes to the circuit board - some parts that had to be added by hand in the first version, done underneath the board, a better panel ventilation pattern, multifilament sleeving on the cable, circuit boards cleaned by machine, gold plated tube sockets instead of nickel, and that's about it

It is more of a V 1.0 and V 1.10
