That is quite the beast now at 50 pounds.  I just sent the prototype back and it only weighed in at 25 pounds.  
 
I look forward to reading the reviews of this.

We apologize for the mistake. It should be 24lb, 11.75 kg

Thanks for the update.  It still is a beast at 24 lb as most headphone amplifiers don't seem near that weight.
