No, Justin.

Sorry to disagree.

That shouldn't be good.

That's called Law of Supply and Demand, one of the basic laws of Economy.

It means that you're not supplying the market the quantity to match the demand, so demand is a lot higher than supply.

That's basically why an used BHSE costs the same or more than a new one.

Regards,

Erico

^ But your comments supports this...there is a BIG demand for Justin's products. If there wasn't, resale values would be much lower.

Yes but you manufacture demand by controlling supply. We can go back and forth on this all day.

In any case I have no stock whether bhse is delivered on time or not. So i think with that I will bow out till I have something to contribute to the discussion.

I was asking about the devices as i wanted to know if there is any merit in trying out a newer bhse. Assuming it uses the ixys devices. Hoping to see a response to that. If the new ones are using the 1968 devices then my interest in it would be infinitesimal.

but the latest batch has new screw-in feet, and the potential for blue faceplates!

Sweet. There is still hope then. Will look forward to listening to Mike lavigne's bhse then.
post #1541 of 1946

Stop giving yourself excuses and go ahead order one, NOW.

post #1542 of 1946
I see no reason to build one let alone order one based on my impressions of the 3 Bhse I have heard thus far. Its a fine amp but so far nothing to suggest it is my flavor. I hope to listen to Mike's amp for an extended period before I make a final decision on whether it is worth my while to consider building one.

It is not a BHSE if not built by Justin.

post #1544 of 1946
I have heard one built by Justin one by namaan. And the one I heard last weekend was built by spritzer

How many have you heard?

It is just not the BHSE if it's not by Justin. It doesn't matter how many you or I have heard.
