Unlikely. But I assume you read Larry's excellent review?

Just wanted to also say thanks. This thread and Larry's thread you just noted are the two I check on the most regularly in the last few weeks. Thanks to both of you!

Also sorry about that bad transaction I saw in another thread but can't find now. It really stinks period, but especially when you were trying to do someone a favor. I wonder if there shouldn't be a blacklist thread?

Hey Skylab,

Just to echo everyone else, cheers mate fantastic review you've done an imense labour, I think valued by all. You helped me, one of the fairly newbies, get a handle on a number of the best amps out there & your review was hugely influential in my plumping (Damn! poor wallet ) for the fantastic RSA P-51

X2! - I ordered red-ended gold-knobbed black P-51 today! Even spoke with Ray himself. W3s will be very happy

Rob, don't forget you should get the iBasso D3, D2 Boa and Nuforce Icon Mobile sometime between Saturday and Tuesday. You don't have to ship them out till the following week - the D2 and Nuforce go back to me and the D3 goes to Casey at Nuforce. I know you only plan to review the D3, but feel free to listen to them all with jvlgato and maybe add the others to the review too?

Skylab,

Your review of the P-51 was the tipping point for me. While my wallet hurts, my ears are in Heaven! Thanks for all your effort in your reviews.

Kudos!

Oh, I haven't forgotten! Thanks so much for giving me the opportunity to listen to these. How much gets reviewed here all depends on time. The D3 will happen for sure, but I like to follow my procedures identically for all amps, and the amps you send haven't arrived yet

The D3 doesn't have to get to Casey till the 13th or 14th, and there is no time limit to return the D2 and Nuforce. They shipped priority mail on Tuesday.

I completely agree. Skylab's review was the key influencer in me purchasing the P-51 [all gold, #009] for my first portable and serious headphone amp. Thanks Skylab!

You sure did. Impressive review list. I'd have a request/recommendation tough. On the final ranking could you post the price (even approx) ? Or maybe add also rankings based on budgets (say under 100, under 300).
Kudos to you.
