I liked the knob on the old one, but the smaller protrusion on the front panel of the new one will make it easier for those with flatter and larger iPods. The old one said dual mono, the new one just says dual... are either true dual mono separation from the power supply till the output?

Last night I placed an order for a black one, the check was mailed today Ray. But although I am very excited to get this amp I need to mention my experience talking to Ray last night.
We must have spent close to 30 minutes talking but they flew by so fast. It really is cool that Ray answers his own phone and will spend whatever time he needs to w/ a customer to answer all my silly questions.
All I have to say is that Ray is a gentleman and a pleasure to deal with. I hope you all's experience w/ Ray is as enjoyable as mine was. BTW, this is not the first but a typical pattern of my cumulative experiences.
Thanks Ray and best of luck. Yes, I am an RSA fan boy!

Ray,
Can I use MAHA POWEREX 9.6 Volt 230mAh NiMH rechargeable batteries? (I have many of these already)
Or are there other rechargable batteries that you recommend?

I just saw the pictures for the first time....a great look for an amp that has big shoes to fill.
I sent some money a couple of days ago for one....and was completely unconcerned over what it might look like. A Ray Samuels product is the only item I can think of that I would buy sight unseen.
