The bias is the same for them, ppl said one of the chip suppliers couldn't deliver the lower bias chips, or something.

Well, this amp, power supply, and DAC are definitely on my list...

So is it considered that to get the most out of the sound you should go with the additional power supply vs battery supply, which increases the cost by 300 dollars or so?

I haven't read any statements about improved SQ for those using the PSU but I don't think many people have one yet. As far as the standard and XP from what I understand the only difference is size and battery life, sq should be the same.

WindowsX - I agree, I think this amp could hold its own against several home amps in the sub $1k category... truly impressive!

With the size couldn't almost be considered a small home amp? With a discrete output it should do very well.

I believe they've labeled it a "transportable" but I suppose it depends on who's using it and how. For me it is a transportable desktop amp... I use it at work with an iPod and once I get a DAC I'll use it at home via desktop... double duty

The Power supply is in its Pre-production state and is shown in the Below link with the cover removed. This is the same version Windows X talked about. The production version adds a heaver Heat sink and thermal shut down not shown in the photo. No ETA on the Power supply's at this time however i would expect real soon. http://www.esnips.com/doc/4f275e94-7...ms-and-LLP-001

Are you the one who bought the silver standard during Brad's vacation in Thailand, but you prefer all black at first?

Yes. I exchanged it back for a guy who ordered black ones in Singapore. Actually, I ordered silver expodition at first but you can see my second P.S. for reason why I changed back.

Can I use the alkaline 9 volt batteries on the standard Lisa ?
How long would it last?
Is it possible to remove the batteries(easy?) and charge them with the external charger and put them in?

WindowsX - Did you put different knobs on your Lisa? Those look like SR-71 knobs..?
