PM me your email.

Only if you bring your D/AC1600. You can listen to mine which may have a mod or two done.

Similar from what I can see.

Hard to say as Grado quality varies so much. To be more specific the engraving (new style) is fair at best. One cup is passable but the other has some discoloration as if the cup was spun while lettering, and the spin marks were left behind. The cable had a twist + kink half way up to one of the cups which I've managed to coax out (I think). The old Grado cable wasn't great and the new one is not an improvement, at least in the look/feel department. But you put them on and all is forgotten. Detailed and smooth and IMO better bass than the HF-1, with better control. Edit: Now that I look closer there is also a kink on the other side but no twist. Edit2: Maybe I'm being picky but... I ordered very early when they came to our attention, likely in the first 20. The first 25 were given out at CanJam yet my serial is >50 wtf.

My HF2 is in the house. Build quality/QC is abysmal as usual. Good thing they sound fantastic, otherwise I would be pissed.

Getting thirsty too. Don't you owe me one?

No pickup until after 1:30pm tomorrow, at the local postal outlet. Swinging by there after work.

To pay for the extra traffic of disgruntled posters.

Mine are out for delivery. May have them later today, since I'm not home. Guess it will be a Formula 1 version. Maybe I can get it anodized Ferrari red. Shame I couldn't make it to CanJam, as I was easily in the top 20.

Happy Birthday!

Haha... priceless.

I smell a transformer coupled headphone amp in your future.

Yes indeed. I'm enjoying it so far. I'm going to come over and steal PCM63P-K's.

I would of sent them to you if you asked. But ya their customer service is indeed insanely awesome.

Possibly... any recommendations?

I doubt it. It was bought locally. Thanks. I always wanted an R 2R Dac.

What's being done to your BBQ22?

Parasound has amazing Customer Service. After a google search I was unable to find a schematic for my Parasound DAC. Failing that, this past Saturday, I sent an email to their service department. Within minutes Richard replied that he would look when he got into the office on Monday. I was surprised at the quick response, and on a Saturday at that. Today, Sunday, I received an email from Tony with the schematic attached. How's that for customer service?

Happy Birthday!

Happy Birthday!

Production board looks great. Is that a fully discrete output stage? Nice!
