That's the old version. It wasn't good enough, so Nik commissioned a new one.

A dash of madness is always needed to push the envelope further on anything.

Otherwise, we'll stay stagnant.
Now, whether they sound good to everyone is another story.

My laynutria's conjecture, Kuma, is that you might have taken my tone a wee curtsey more seriously than is recommended by your dermatologist. (Horn-mad = cuckolded = what in the Seventh Circle of Oink has that to do with a costly headphone amp?)

[Christ's bedpan, Hirsch. I'm afraid to see that amp in the black metal flesh. It's the kind of thing that ought to exist only in the Platonic realm.]

I still don't get what dermatologist has to do with anything or your equation above.
horn-mad=cuckolded=seventh circle.
I know oink means pig, no?

You didn't read all of the conversation then, Nik was just letting us know that there would be an R10 for sale on eBay soon (put there by Audiocubes I believe) - Nik certainly was not selling his R10's.

Thanks Hirsch for answering to those do not read precedents thread...

But the first Angstrom model was even incredible. I had (as I wrote) a problem with the headpohne socket and I did not listened the amp full performance. Than I ordered the Manley and I sold the Angstrom just for pay the Manley.

Best!

He never said anything about audiocubes at least up to the post I had read, and the way it was written, at least the very first one, was very confusing then, if this was what he meant, I agree that reading again the whole thread last night, he stated (after I unsubscribed from it) that it was not his, but I do not had read that part, as I unsubscribed from the post before he stated that, after about 12 other posts, sorry about that....

Nik,
Yeah you 're right I'm little hard against you sometime...sorry...but you know that's because I'm a passionate guy. But in any case I don't want to offend you.

So how does it sound, you should post a picture of all your system (you know there's a thread about that).

Good listening.

Best!
