Hi, i got my hands on a used First One v1.3 about a month ago Thanks great amp Lazy Cat!
So far the most seductive, and addictive amp i have tried. I have been using class d amps like ta2014, ta2020, tpa3116, and mini watt n3 tube amp.
The sound is like tube and class d merged into a very lively and musical amp. It replaced The Wiener tap3116, also a very good amp maybe a little more detailed and clinical sounding.
But the thing is i have not had the urge to put The Wiener back into my system the last weeks because my feat is tapping all night long and i forget about it Maybe at some point i will do another comparison but for now it stays!
My sound system:Mac-air, systemwide DPSplugin from bongiovi acoustics, airplay, a little bear tube buffer with russian Golden Platinum grid Voshkod tubes, First One v1.3 and big classic 3 way DIY speakers 12"JBL bass, seas mids and tweeters

I was referring to LC's comment in post #2263.Happy New Year,
Did we really miss the first ordering ????
Hi,
Can someone confirm the price/module of the F.O. ver1.4 'S' type and also the bias requirement.
I believe the FO 'S' is sort of replacing the VSSA which had a bias of about 160mA at +/- 45Vdc.
Thanks and Happy New Year to all DIYer.
BR,
Eric
Too long to reply so I just purchased 2 x VSSA
