The new Head-Code simply amplifies your music and does nothing else; it drives whatever headphones I plug into it to their - I believe - fullest extent. Here are a few observations I've made over the past several days:
The amp never runs hot, and just by touching it you might not have known it was on, except for the two faint blue LEDs in the front panel. The power switch is the back next to the AC input, suggesting it wasn't meant to be flipped at each listening session. I asked Phil about this, and he recommended I just leave it on all the time.
The amp is deadly quiet, substantially more quiet than the old Head-Code. The AH-5000's, at 25 Ohms, are normally finicky about amps that even have the slightest amount of noise. With the new Head-Code, everything just emerges from utter blackness.
Everything that I listen to has a real visceral and almost 'etched out' sound to it. You feel the depth and fullness of every guitar string plucked and every piano key struck.
Exhibits a level of bass control and dynamic impact that is just mind boggling. The effect is ultra-pronounced on the HD-650's, a set of headphones which I've always believed needed serious solid-state power to sound their best.
The attack and speed are incredible.
This will be available in both the Dual Mono as well as the Optional Triad Version just like the previous Head-code. However while the case is the same, these new Head-codes will contain the Newest Head-code Modules, a refined version of what was used in LeChucks amp. a cosmetically similar Amp will hopefully be made at about the same time this amp is finished. Things are happening fast with the Head-code.
Dimensions are about 16 Inches square and the Chassis is about 2.5 Inches in Height.
