November 5, 200718 yr 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. http://www.hagtech.com/castanet.html
November 5, 200718 yr 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.
November 5, 200718 yr Author How many times you you type 'Oh snap' in one day? Is there a problem with "oh snap" that I am not aware of? Hey you thief. I posted that punkface. What has been with your attitude recently?
November 5, 200718 yr What has been with your attitude recently? ? Total jokes. Me thinks you have the attitude if you are taking me seriously.
November 5, 200718 yr Author Total jokes. Me thinks you have the attitude if you are taking me seriously. =_= Haha, I was mainly referring to your pwning of noobs recently. It's been no mercy style.
November 5, 200718 yr =_= Haha, I was mainly referring to your pwning of noobs recently. It's been no mercy style. Ah. Well if they werent idiots, then I wouldnt be so harsh. I had a good invite this morning!
November 5, 200718 yr Jay hasn't gotten his weekly dose of warmth, and his dormies are always present- so no self service for him. Tense times.

November 5, 200718 yr 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.
November 5, 200718 yr Author 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.
November 5, 200718 yr Is there a problem with "oh snap" that I am not aware of?No, you just say it a lot.
November 5, 200718 yr Is there a problem with "oh snap" that I am not aware of? Not when used by Joy, but maybe when used by you?
November 5, 200718 yr Not when used by Joy, but maybe when used by you? Amen, to the Joy part that is.
November 5, 200718 yr Author 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.
