I received a pre-production portable Tube Headphone from Elekit for evaluation.
TU-HP01 is working very well on IPad 4PS Prior to the release of the product we unveiled it at a headphone amplifier show held in Tokyo on last Saturday.
Headphone festival 2013 Spring in Tokyo 春のヘッドホン祭
There were a lot of visitors and one of them has already talked about TU-HP01 in their blogs.

人ごみの中、各社のヘッドホンを試聴しながらちょっと眺めていると、面白いものを見つけました。イーケイジャパンのエレキット真空管ヘッドホンアンプTU-HP01。試聴してびっくり。これを装着すると今まで普通に聴いていたヘッドホンの音が大きく変わります。響きが増して心地よく感じられるのです。何でも真空管アンプ独特の「偶数倍音」が人間の耳に心地よく音楽を感じさせるのだそうです。そして驚くべきはそのサイズです。スマホと重ねてハンドキャリーできるサイズです。真空管なのに熱を持たないから、バッグに忍ばせて持ち歩いても全く問題ありません。出力段に使っているオペアンプは2種類ついていて、交換可能。気分にあわせて音色の変化を楽しむことができます。そして価格はなんと19,950円!これは安い。
Here is the translation.

He was surprised to hear its sound. The sound from the headphone that he has been listening to has changed a lot. The sound is very comfortable. Tubes can yield overtones, which make the music so sweet. The size is amazingly small too. There's no problem carrying it with a smart phone. It can be put in a bag, as it does not generate heat. You even have two options for OP-amp, and the price is only JPY19,950-! What a reasonable price!

Just for your information.
