In a world where headphone amps can cost anywhere from $99 to $1999 and some even $7000. It is hard to find honesty in what is a real true improvement in build quality or sound. How can you read through the online reviews to get a good idea of what to buy when it is clear that some reviews are paid for or that other reviews are not taking into account the full story, in personal experience or knowledge. What I can tell honestly, is that the HA540 is hand built in Salt Lake City, UT by people who have been in the industry for a few decades. We have seen it all, from companies selling the equivalent of snake oil and charging outrageously for it, to honest companies that have unfortunately fallen by the wayside.
