My first impressions of the V8 OTL tube headphone amp. 0:28... Detail and specs. 8:44... Equipment used. 13:14... How does it sound. 25:26... Conclusion.
Awesome video! I have an Atrium Closed and have been searching for an amp around $1500. This looks like to be the one! Pictures don't do it justice, it looks small. When you held it up, I was surprised at the size of it. It is a big boy!
Hello William, great to see you in good spirits! Please also mention it vs. your audio-gd amp... have one as well and think about adding a tube amp some time in the future. thank you!
Thanks very much for the initial impressions. Sounds like a very interesting amp. I'm looking for an upgrade for my Sennheiser HD800S, which apparently love OTLs, so I'll be eagerly awaiting your full review. Will be great to compare against the Feliks Audio OTLs. Have you approached Woo Audio? They have the WA2 OTL and WA6-SE TC which are similarly priced. A comparison with those would also be great if possible.
Thanks for this nice review. I hope this will be an endgame upgrade over my Feliks Euphoria AE. Since you always mention the Feliks Elise. Is this amp superior in resolution with more crisp transients ? It always sounds like they are fairly comparable.
Very Very interesting specially with planars wow !

Atrium on an OTL is absolutely fantastic.

I haven't had any offers yet from Woo Audio. I would love to review something from them.
Thank you!

I haven't yet compared it directly to the Elise. I plan to do so soon.
I wonder how this compares to the wells dragon for like level ?
I prefer the V8 to the Dragon Level 1 that I reviewed a couple of years ago.
