March 22, 20188 yr the "GS-1 mk2" that has been requested, coming soon..it will look like a mini GS-X mk2. Evidence of how cheap PCBs are now..
March 22, 20188 yr For a second there I thought that was a fucking locking Neutrik jack and my heart sank into my boots.
March 22, 20188 yr i'm doing this amp from the outside and working my way in, which i have not tried before, but should be faster - i have the aluminum enclosures ready to go

March 23, 20188 yr Hi Justin, What are the dimensions for the amp (if the cases are finalized)? Thanks

I sold my GS-1 Dynalo+ a few years ago to ‘upgrade’ and have pretty much lived in disappointment ever since. Looking forward to any further info on GS-1 Mk2.
May 5, 20188 yr Got a loaner Gilmore Lite MKII from Justin for a local Atlanta meet and this is a great sounding little amp. I'm very impressed by its clean dynamic and sheer sense of power for such a very desktop friendly amplifier driving my HD800 (black dragon upgraded cable). I also got lucky that my old Headroom DPS (dedicated/dynamic power supply) happen to work perfectly with the Lite MKII. Justin also confirmed it and the background is blacker while the sense of depth is better with a dedicated power supply. Great amp!
May 7, 20188 yr I'm also impressed with the Gilmore Lite Mk2, got mine a few days ago. Clean, smooth, transparent, very nice with the HD650 and Focal Clear.

June 30, 20188 yr Sorry, though, liquid in amps is trademarked by Cavalli. Though if he made a Liquid GS, the "GS" would stand for Godawful Shit.
July 7, 20187 yr Been reading a lot around here and am trying to tie off loose ends with dynamic stuff before trying out stax. From what I've read, the gilmore lite mk2 seems likely to be close enough to "as fast and transparent as is currently possible" for the LCD3 and HD800S. Would there be any technical reasons for an existing amp such as the pure bipolar or gsx mk2 to perform significantly better with those headphones?

Would there be any technical reasons for an existing amp such as the pure bipolar or gsx mk2 to perform significantly better with those headphones? I just picked up a Gilmore Lite mk2 for use with HD600. This thing is ridiculous. Super smooth but with really snappy transients, while still retaining the clarity and resolution of my DAC. I would take it over Ragnarok, which I bought recently but returned due to QC issues. I previously heard HD600 and HD800 on GSX mk2 and it was very dynamic and lively sounding but it seemed to spotlight the 4khz and 6khz issues of these headphone specifically. In all honesty Gilmore could be endgame for dynamics for me but I’m also now intrigued to see what Justin can accomplish by revisiting the GS1...
