Salt Peanuts Posted December 7, 2007 Report Posted December 7, 2007 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! Quote
Grand Enigma Posted December 7, 2007 Report Posted December 7, 2007 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! so the single ended guys got theirs before the balanced people? ... i dont recall you saying you got the balanced one anyway. Pics and enjoy! Quote
Salt Peanuts Posted December 7, 2007 Author Report Posted December 7, 2007 so the single ended guys got theirs before the balanced people? ... i dont recall you saying you got the balanced one anyway. Pics and enjoy! 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. Quote
deepak Posted December 7, 2007 Report Posted December 7, 2007 Congrats Haj! x2 on pics (insides too) Quote
Salt Peanuts Posted December 7, 2007 Author Report Posted December 7, 2007 pics now or you're banned. I'll do my best - have you seen may camera? Quote
deepak Posted December 7, 2007 Report Posted December 7, 2007 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 Quote
Grand Enigma Posted December 7, 2007 Report Posted December 7, 2007 ah so you have the big tank of a case pictured on his site? Quote
Salt Peanuts Posted December 7, 2007 Author Report Posted December 7, 2007 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. Quote
tkam Posted December 7, 2007 Report Posted December 7, 2007 congrats the β22 is one hell of a good amp Quote
en480c4 Posted December 7, 2007 Report Posted December 7, 2007 if Nate finishes his balanced one Hahahahaha! J/K Nate! Quote
Spiug31 Posted December 8, 2007 Report Posted December 8, 2007 With baited breath I await your every word (and pics would be nice too ) I'm saving for a Rockhopper balanced B22 Quote
Dusty Chalk Posted December 8, 2007 Report Posted December 8, 2007 congrats the β22 is one hell of a good ampx2 Quote
Salt Peanuts Posted December 8, 2007 Author Report Posted December 8, 2007 As usual, the lighting sucks and my camera skills are lacking, but here are some pics.

Salt Peanuts Posted December 8, 2007 Author Report Posted December 8, 2007 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. Quote

hYdrociTy Posted December 8, 2007 Report Posted December 8, 2007 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 Quote
jinp6301 Posted December 8, 2007 Report Posted December 8, 2007 man that looks great, and orange wires FTW!!! Quote
DigiPete Posted December 8, 2007 Report Posted December 8, 2007 Nice amp, but ridiculously large enclosures for a single ended headphone amp. Quote
grawk Posted December 8, 2007 Report Posted December 8, 2007 Nice amp, but ridiculously large enclosures for a single ended headphone amp. penguins have trouble with precision layouts Quote
Salt Peanuts Posted December 8, 2007 Author Report Posted December 8, 2007 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. Quote
deepak Posted December 8, 2007 Report Posted December 8, 2007 Looks good, digging the ARC imitation case Quote
Spiug31 Posted December 8, 2007 Report Posted December 8, 2007 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 Quote
