Great point Craig! However, no matter what you, Tyll, or I or anyone else says regarding how good elear sounds to those who truly enjoy the headphone, there will be a corresponding amount of those who don't. The most you can hope for when we participate in these forums and post a positive...

I am charging mine at this very minute via the computer and it is only very slightly warm. Never had a problem with it being hot even when in very low charge state. You might want to contact dealer about that.

Not sure if you ever got this tamed Doc, but couldn't you just use a card reader with your puter to just load the cards then insert them into the player? Just a suggestion. May be worth a try???

thumbs up Jason!! one hell of a nice thing to do considering you had no part in the sale. The Source is #1 in my book.

the last version I have and the current version from OPPO's site are the same. driver version 3.26.0 and revision version 1.33. Nothing was ever sent from Oppo support to me.

Good things happen to those who wait patiently (I keep telling myself :wink: ). Gonna start thru my Oppo HA-1 direct thru balanced stock cable from my Alpha dog, then change to stock dummer with HA-1 thru Violectric HPA 90, then to my Jot thru balanced output from Teac 301, then I'll jockey...

The HA-1 is tough to get centered. It's not just not that kind of amp/dac. It's not apologetic in the least. It is just such a clean, neutral, and dynamic amp/dac that it can be a bit too brilliant with certain headphones. Fortunately, the Alpha Dog, rp 50 mk3, and elear I have are suited...

two very good sources of moderately priced good quality cables I have found are Plussound and Impact Audio. The quality of work is excellent and they have both been right on time with completion and shipment estimates.

Delays happen, particularly when you are dealing with suppliers who for the most part are not under your control. Late decisions to create extra value for your product (and a service to your customer) such  as an included case is an excusable delay. Not being forthcoming and "transparent" on the...

6' "Dummer" single ended dual entry cable. 

the site says 58 currently in stock at 699.00. It's probably a website problem.

now that I have several dacs, amps and dac/amp combos I am finding the elear (much like its big brother per feedback in other threads)  to be super responsive to its upstream pairings. Now, I won't go so far as to say there is huge change, but pleasant noticeable change in soundstage, warmth...

  Specifically the 9th ....fantastic!
