It's funny because people are really excited about the swappable amp...seems that you are forgetting that if RSA or a similar company builds an amp for this device, you should expect to pay a few hundred bucks for that. I am guessing that a fully decked out system, ie full sized media card and aftermarket amp, will cost around $900.

Actually I prefer a DAC only version of the Hifiman better. Lot's of headfiers have already got high quality portable amps.
One of the leading edges I find in this product is that it can play 24/96 files directly through a good DAC. Hence HiFiMan DAC only + favorable amp is really nice combo to me.
Of course I am not objecting the 3 in 1 concept provided the amp is really good. In this case I will buy it in a second.
Anyway, it's always good to have more than one GOOD options.
