Agreed, waiting for the new GS-X myself along with the Pico Power.

I can see this. I found the same with the GS-1 as well. The B22 is just a more fun listen. However, the M^3 with the HD800s is funner not better technically but sounds fuller more akin to a tube amp - but not.. When I had the GS-1 everything was a tad bit clearer but not as fun to listen to. That said the GS-1 was one of the best technically sounding amps I've heard.
Can't wait to get the new GS-X.
Imagine the GS-1 with more even/smoother treble and even more transparency/dynamics (if you can believe it) and you'll have the glory that is the GS-X (and throw in a dash of better imaging).
