Will it ever gonna end?

 

I mean, it seems difficult, now that is a "Forever Funding pilot program", with a new and improved product.

I just received a linear power supply. Hoping for something to use it with soon.

Wtf? No DAC?

[guzziguy]

Are you going to open it up to see what wall-wart they used?

[blessingx]

Well, it's something.

To be fair, although delayed multiple times (I think July was first ship date before things went crazy), the DAC has been slated to ship mid-December for a bit now. Different models, different times, so others may be getting them this week.

I guess I could always do this now [skip to 3:50].

Cool. Greater spatiality. These people suck.

You beat me to it, Al.

Some nice ideas with the enclosure, makes me wonder how much of the R&D budget is going towards case engineering

 

and by wonder I mean assume it's 100%

For those unfamiliar - their "Geek Soul" upgrade.

This.  So fucking this.

 

This shit better give free blowjobs to be worth all this.  So glad I got a refund.

Over time we've certainly got to know a great deal about Light Harmonic business practices, but we'll find out about SQ and/or BJs shortly.

Supposedly their shipping order is campaign waves (1st, 2nd, Purgatory/Current, etc.), sub-ordered by model (Pulse, Pulse X, Pulse S), further divided by order date, at a rate of about 20 units per day (though have my suspicions about this). Not sure anyone here ordered (and didn't cancel or upgrade) a base model early, so we're probably a few weeks away from receiving one, but the few of us still in included early orders and base models.

Have to admit I prefer the experience of waiting on new gear arriving from a company I respect.

I'm still waiting for my Pulse X to be delivered.  I was one one of the early adopter as it was a part of a group buy.  So it didn't cost me more than $375 for a balanced DAC/amp.  I don't really have high hope on sound quality though.

[blessingx]

Here's the funny thing - I still kinda do. Maybe naive, but all the campaign disasters aside (and I wouldn't suggest ignoring for any future purchases), I still think the Geek Out 720 sounds decent and hope this scales accordingly. Expectations wrapped in the price paid blanket of course.

Can anyone more knowledgable than I (everyone) tell anything from this?

I can tell that the guy on the computer is a huge dork, and has a very difficult time with women.
