HD800? Another rumor?

[postjack]

thanks for your reply, that's weird.

[tyrion]

That is a sweet looking amp.

[postjack]

I guess it had to have some kind of pre, I don't see any volume pots?

Do you really need a pot if all you want is "blow your damn fool head" loud sound?

[postjack]

When you put it that way, I think Pete might be on to something.

this time of the year, I just use seasonal allergies as an attenuator.

Senn USA took my order a month ago... should be here any day now, since the hd800 have shipped to Senn USA, verified by Senn.

Cool! I will give them a call next week about that.

Part number: 532758

[pabbi1]

Speaking of Part #532758, I received an invoice today for $163.28 paid, and shipped from Senn USA via UPS. Should see the cable on Wednesday, at the latest.

[n_maher]

Ouch, that's a $$$ stock cable.

Yup but for me it's probably the cheapest way I'm going to be able to balance them.

Immediately, yes you're probably right. I'm quite curious to see what the connectors end up being and if they're available to DIY and smaller MOTs.

[pabbi1]

Pretty sure they are the ODU - Alex has them on hand, and we'll know the same day I get the cable. Won't be long now. And, of course, he is making me an APS v3, so we'll see if the stock is really all that, or if aftermarket has a place in this phone.

[Dreadhead]

Look forward to hearing about the connector.

The stock cable is all I need. If I can get the connectors and a DIY cable cheaper then so be it.

Wooty woot woot woot!

Hi All,

I have confirmation that the HD800 is shipping out to the dealers today!!! We will be shipping them to you asap via Fed Ex 2nd Day delivery.

This is great news but the timing is difficult. I am leaving for CanJam on Thursday. My shipper will be doing everything to get them out to you in a very timely manner. We have set everything up so it should run smoothly.

We will be able to fill most of our orders. Only a few (5-10) will have to wait for the 2nd batch. I'll post more here soon -

Kind of funny if they start arriving at people's homes while we're all at CanJam.

Hmm interesting. Mine will definitely not make it until after CJ.

I'm now trying to decide if I want to wait until I hear them to bother with balancing or not. If I like them then I balance them and I can order the stock cable anytime to replace it and keep the resale value. Of course they could sell out but I'm patient.

[The Monkey]

Now I want these.

^ If I end up not liking it, you want to buy mine? $1200 shipped to another HC-er.

[Dreadhead]

Spoke to Headroom and they are getting theirs Friday/Monday and will ship them out next week.

Crap dude that's a good deal.

I hope you hate them.

[Asr]

Ok then, sounds like a plan.

[Hopstretch]

Looks like they sent over quite a few. I ordered pretty late (February) and HeadRoom says I'm well within the first batch. A nice welcome-home-from-CanJam-sorry-about-your-aching-head present.

[n_maher]

Oooh, now we'll really have to get cracking on plans for a mini-meet.

[Hopstretch]

I'm sure they'll be keen to drop by to meet the Menace.

[Dreadhead]

Yeah I am looking forward to Grawk and My mini meet post CanJam. BH, KGSS, O2, GS-X whatever else..
