This collaboration with Nerd Knuckle Effects resulted in the creation of a headphone amp designed to provide a pedal sound in less than ideal conditions, such as trade shows. The circuit consists of three blocks: a JFET preamp that produces a tube-like sound, a speaker cabinet simulator based on the Runoffgroove Condor, and a headphone driver inspired by the MXR Headphone Amp. The headphone amp performs well with most headphones but may not be loud enough with low-impedance studio headphones. Future revisions may explore the use of an LM386 or a more advanced discrete output stage to address this issue.
