I just read a very favourable review of it (in Dutch, on hifi.nl ).
Seems like a very stylish and good sounding amp.
7 kg, so it's solidly build.

I imagine this gives it a bit of heft!

If I am not mistaken, the above picture is of the Atom with regular amp.

This one is of the Headphone Edition innards...spot the differences [emoji3]

The top board is basically the same...it is the bottom board (not visible in the picture) that holds the new headphone amp.

It has been a long time since I lusted after a piece of kit for which I have no use...got to resist

I am now in the stage of thinking what to sell so as to create a new use case.
