A number of us have been contacting Hagerman over the past year or so regarding a SET headphone amp design.

He said he'll do something about it independently.

Oh snap. It's coming. Ultra excited.

Hey you thief. I posted that punkface.

How many times you you type 'Oh snap' in one day?

Looking closer at it... kit for $99... uses 6H30. I have 4 6H30's that I'm not using. Could this circuit be balanced if you bought two kits?

Its a kit/2: meaning it only includes the parts that you cannot get readily off the shelf. With all those transformers, I bet this ends up totaling about $400ish for a stereo amp.

Is there a problem with "oh snap" that I am not aware of?

Jay hasn't gotten his weekly dose of warmth, and his dormies are always present- so no self service for him. Tense times.

ROFL. You jsut wait for my perfectly timed comeback.

I'm with JB, I can't imagine the half-kit containing much at $99, certainly none of the trafos. In fact it's sort of weird that he's referring to it as a half kit, I'm surprised he isn't making it a half-box like the Cornet. That'd actually be a decent deal at $99.

No, Hagerman's 1/2 kits aren't actually anything close to half of what you need. This amp is supposed to cost hundreds to build. I wouldn't be surprised if the kit only contains the boards, chassis, and manual. That is usually what his 1/2 kits entail.

You are correct, the half/kit nomenclature is somewhat of a misnomer since it's usually not much more than the pcb. And knowing that I'd have a hard time shelling out $99 for a pcb but when he includes a chassis he usually doesn't call it a half/kit, like I mentioned above. Only time will tell and it's definitely worth watching and not speculating further.

No, you just say it a lot.

Not when used by Joy, but maybe when used by you?

Joy who?

Amen, to the Joy part that is.

I still don't know who she is. I presume this is from some teevee show?

Ah, that Joy.

Haha I guess it's because I attended a school where "oh snap" and "oh shiiiii-" were the most common phrases for expressing realization, recognition, surprise, acknowledgment, and/or appreciation.

Fair enough.
