There is something terribly wrong here. Many here will have read amirm review of the jds labs headphone amp.
Have you read John Atkinson's review and measurement of Pass labs hpa-1?
Depending on the headphones used to a certain extent, both these perform positively on the outside of what many would say is audible. That is, the defects in both units will not be heard.
Anyone want to have a stab at justifying the price difference; one being roughly thirty five times the price of the other?
Why don't we read the same adoration of whoever is responsible for the design of the jds amp? I can't even find out who it is!
This isn't a one off. There are glowing reviews on the Internet from Hi Fi gurus on all sorts of equipment that once compared to a product of less perceived value by audiophiles and properly measured show that the differences in measured performance are so small that they are insignificant.
