It was a shocking moment for me as the amount of breadth, space, oomph, and realism was overwhelming. Although it was during a show, I would “steal” the seat in the room often to listen as much as I could. And then, also having built up a huge tube collection by that time, once I got one in the shop I had to try the Aegis with all the tubes I had, and all the ZMF and non-ZMF headphones that I could find. Even after all the tube amp collecting and gear that I have gone through, the Aegis continued to make me excited to figure out what I was going to listen to every time because everything sounded exciting again. MFR Info: Cathode Follower A unique circuit makes the Aegis sound unlike other amps on the market.

Each sector; Rectifier, Output, and Input tubes have a plethora of options.
