I've been out of the headphone audio loop for awhile now and I am curious how the classic Gilmore Lite stacks up nowadays. It was considered one of the best "budget" amps back a few years ago when I bought it. I'm sure it still holds its own to the competition. I tried looking up some comparisons and such, but even though it was amongst the most popular amps back in its day, it rarely gets brought up these days.
