Re: TL-404 autoformers

Yes, Gary did build a headphone amp with TL-404s and active loads after he heard my original prototype for this project a couple years ago. My prototype was a practical construction of the Kugelis dream/thought problem/very rough sketch I published a few years ago.

I think the TL-404s are among the best inductors Mikey has ever made. They could end up in a kit someday. That project would be out in the future a ways. Needless to say it would be a high end kit.

I should also tout the virtues of the Jupiter beeswax parafeed caps here. They were specially made for me and Chris Young has been patiently waiting to hear from me about them. So far they seem excellent - very neutral and revealing with great bass coming thru - just as the smaller ones I installed in the Seduction I built for VSAC have.

I have several different headphones here right now - AKG 240, Sennheiser HD 540 reference II, HD 600 with cable mod, Etymotic ER-4S, and a pair of Koss Sporta-pros that I use for jogging. The HD 600s seem to be pleasing me the most right now as things continue to break in.
