Hmmmmmm I totally forgot this existed lol. I recall hearing it briefly a few years ago and it having a fair bit of control over what was plugged into it, it was good but didn’t blow me away at first listen. Honestly kinda tempted to pick one up and get more time with one, because it was good for the short time I had demoed it, so thanks for reminding me of it lol.
If I had to pull some thoughts (which are based off a short amount of time and limited headphone selection), it would potentially be in between a rnhp and g111 in terms of signature, it was very studio neutral (not neutral smooth like the g111 nor neutral-natural like the rnhp), it’s stage was accurate but not overstated (wasn’t as deep and sharp placement wise as the neve, but nor as wide and spacious as the g111 can be, but the neve can sound somewhat more intimate and the g111 more artificially wide and lack placement accuracy), it’s timbre was solid but not stand out (neve was more timbrally and tonally accurate, g111 is prob more an equal here), detail wise most likely on par with the rnhp and lake people imo, for tonal density it was a slight bit dry but not an issue. It does sound better extended in the bass than the neve and better extended in the treble than the g111 (both of which though can be compensated with the proper dac pairing, same goes for other qualms mentioned with the rnhp and g111).
To me the more stand out thing about it was the control and impact it had, while still having very good microdynamics, it really did punch fairly hard and made dynamics pretty easy to judge. It felt very fast and tight especially in the bass, the g111 has more raw impact but the little labs more likely had more control
But I can’t say all too much, I had only tried it with things like an hd600, 880 600 ohm, and a focal clear. And some closed monitoring can that I can’t recall. Would have liked to try a power hungry planar of some sort. Dac wise I think it had been hooked up to a burl b2 and a crane song dac that I can’t recall the name of, but I would really want to better feel out dac synergy as it seemed to respond well but wasn’t overly dependent on the dac for it’s sound (like the rnhp can be, as that can get really picky on what dac you use) but also wasn’t super source forgiving like the g111 can be
Edit: ah and the little labs was a fairly forward amp, pretty in your face about things in comparison to like a lake people or g111, borderline analytical but not in a bad way
