Feliks Audio Bliss Balanced Electrostatic Headphone Amplifier

Feliks Audio Bliss Balanced Electrostatic Headphone Amplifier Fully balanced pure class-A powered by 300B tubes, designed to drive any electrostatic headphones. Handcrafted in Poland The Feliks Audio Bliss is the result of over four years of research, development, and extensive testing and listening. This fully balanced electrostatic tube headphone amplifier was built to drive any electrostatic headphone, no matter the required bias voltage.  The Bliss features four 6E5P tubes in a push-pull, pure class-A configuration, as well as four EL34 and four 300B power tubes, forming a cascoded differential amplifier. A manually adjustable bias voltage from 120 V to 720 V ensures great flexibility, and there are two headphone sockets, one dubbed PRO (5-pin) and the other NORMAL (6-pin).  The NOS 6E5P tubes in the driver stage work as triodes, providing exceptionally high voltage gain. The premium Stradi S300B tubes offer ultimate reliability and sonic performance. Other high-quality components are from brands such as Vishay, Dale, Nichicon, and Jantzen. The volume control uses a 24-level high-quality DACT stepped attenuator. The Bliss is of premium construction, hand-crafted in Poland, and comes in beautiful solid wood options.
