i thought i would 'sample' the waters and try out a headphone amp that is O.T.L.-driven. - my intro or entry into this type of tube amp . . .
wondering if -
- it would this give me a *representation* of the O.T.L. sound (presuming tubes used to be 'standard' ones or the same as in a regular amp if compared side by side).
- heat: i'm afraid of heat issues and figure this would be a released in a minor way in a headphone amp.
lastly, does heat released ever interfere with the sound, somehow 'get in the way' of what one hears? (this would be more of a general question on the matter, i realize)
no brands yet, considering one made in Russia? (Hartung? price reasonable at $400 U.S.)
thanks for interest.
your board seems cool (!)
