After some time to listening, ...
AD797 - fine and fast but a little bit "behind a lightweight curtain"
OPA604 - better, more fresh, cleaner
And the OPA627 ist now on the way to me, we will hear 😉

Today the both OPA627 arrived, can't wait for listening and testing. ;-)
After two hours of listening (some genres of music) they will stay in the headamp!
Now listening to He Xun Tian - Paramita (XRCD), especially "Earth Drums" and "Moons upon a thousand Rivers". 😀 😀
@meldano,
thanks again!
@generg,
i think i will test them also, but i must think over my experience with the Berlin customs. :-|

Carsten, what kind of remote-controlled volume control are you using?
Is it a MUSES unit?
Where can I purchase one?
Thank you.
An externally hosted image should be here but it was not working when we last tested it.
Meldano has made both boards, control unit and the MUSES volume board.
I think he has no more boards left.
Too bad...I'll never understand why someone goes to all the trouble to design boards only to run out and never reorder more or just abandon the project altogether.
I would purchase this MUSES setup in a heartbeat, unless the price is outrageous.
Just completing the upgrade of the EVO Mundorf coupling caps, and the Philips Tin Foil 100pF in the feedback network. After living with the headphone amp for almost one week now I must say it may well be one of my best can amps, and I built a few 😉
One major criteria for me is listening fatigue, and I can listen to this amp during hours and hours without any fatigue, and I keep discovering details in my favorite music. This is a lovely amplifier.
Meldano is right when he said that it can compete with the best ones.
It is very easy to make in its basic form, just get a nice chassis, add some nice coupling caps, good resistors in the signal path and you'll have a killer amp.
Thanks Wayne from PassDIY and 6L6 for sharing this great design. Very recommended 😀

@Meldano,
good finding, thanks for the hint! Done.
@Wayne and Nelson,
many many thanks for sharing this great headphone amp, i enjoy listening with my headphones more and more. 🙂 😀

Please, Can you say me the C6A/B ~C11A/B values? I think that it´s not necesary if I don´t use the Muse volumen, right?

Same voltage, caps are here 100nF (MKP1837). Your other question can't answer because i'm on a business trip.
Is there any reason, why i should use only 100nF for C13?
I think thats a good part to play with it. Imho you can increase that value up to 1uF and listen.
