Rockhopper Audio β22 is here!

[Salt Peanuts]

My Rockhopper Audio β22 has arrived!

I have to re-arrange and adjust my rack shelves since I didn't leave quite enough vertical space when I last adjusted the shelves.

Well, I'm going to go set it up now!

I ordered mine before Stephen setup either of the group-buys. No pics yet since I can't find my camera. It is a single-ended version, though the chassis is large enough to accommodate 4-ch balanced configuration.

Congrats Haj! x2 on pics (insides too)

[Salt Peanuts]

pics now or you're banned.

I'll do my best - have you seen may camera?

[deepak]

Ok I realized if we have the NE meet there's a chance we'd have 3 B22's in attendance if Nate finishes his balanced one

[Grand Enigma]

ah so you have the big tank of a case pictured on his site?

Not that one - mine's same size as the one pictured for the balanced group-buy (I measured the cases and they have the same dimension as mentioned there).

I guess I'll go look for my camera before I set it up.

[Spiug31]

With baited breath I await your every word (and pics would be nice too )

I'm saving for a Rockhopper balanced B22

As usual, the lighting sucks and my camera skills are lacking, but here are some pics.

I forgot to add that 4-pin XLR jack isn't actually connected right now - it's there for the possible future plans (i.e., balanced). I may just get it wired to the 2nd headphone out at some point, though.

FAKER!!!

[hYdrociTy]

that looks hot

even the wires are orange! and not just orange..... CREAMY ORANGE SWIRL!

The front panel reminds me of Century Gothic font. It's like the amp came from metropolis or something.. I love it

[ojnihs]

looks great Haj, congratz

[jinp6301]

man that looks great, and orange wires FTW!!!

[DigiPete]

Nice amp, but ridiculously large enclosures for a single ended headphone amp.

Well, I asked for it so that I may be tempted in the future to go back to the balanced game - just not now.

[deepak]

Looks good, digging the ARC imitation case

[Spiug31]

I really like the orange wiring, great colour balance with the green and blue of the board. It's nice to see some electronics that are actually bright inside
