Enclosed are a couple of pictures of the SR71 w/ the SR71A. I hope to compare them tomorrow w/ about 725 hours of burn-in on the SR71A.

Emmeline, SR-71A, the Black Bird...
To all the head-fiers & friends....
We have no longer Black color SR-71A.
We have ONLY around 80 SR-71As left. They are either clear/white or grey colors.
Sorry to say that we might not be able to make more SR-71As as we can't get any more of the parts required. Sadly the demand is still great on this amp. I am hopping that I can get some more chips but it does not look good as of now.

I too sent payment for a Grey SR-71A recently. Hopefully RSA isn't out of the grey ones...
I'm definitely excited about this purchase. My first experience with a RSA product was with a Tomahawk. I just loved the sound signature of that amplifier. Can't wait to try the SR-71A.

Due to unforeseen circumstances, I had to return the amp. The amp sounds nice.

I have placed an order for one and paypal'ed Ray, but unfortunately there were left only white/clear ones. Oh well, I guess the color won't affect the SQ that much

Hey the white ones are pretty nice too. I like the black lettering on them. Good contrast with the white exterior.
Just got my Dark Grey SR-71A yesterday!  Ray shipped out the very same day that I purchased the amp! Great doing business with him!

But I really wanted a black one to pair with my black iPod Classic. But I'm glad I'll be able to put my hands on a brand new BLACK BIRD!!!!!
