Exactly!

I personally don't see how in the hell people carry around even a nano attatched to a TH with an interconnect in thier pocket. HOW BIG ARE YOUR POCKETS???? With the IC, it makes even the TH an nano cumbersome. The IC is what makes everything cumbersome, not the components.

I think it's crazy (I tried it) and honestly, even if you still want small, a bag on your belt is the best bet, even if all you do is adjust volume, so you don't have to fiddle with reaching into your pocket....unless it's a shirt pocket.

x2 here -- got mine yesterday.
Pictures simply do not prepare you for the actuality!

Incedible little jewel.

I think all of us that own the tomahawks were surprised by just how small it is when you first open the box.

heard that the supermicro IV has better sound then the tomahawk?, any comments there?, seriously need a good small amp NOW.!

I am trying to decide between the Hornet and Tom. - this was very helpful.

Thanks.

Great animation. Really gives a better perspective between the size differences of the RSA amps.

yeah, I was shocked when I bought wildcard30's TH

I thought he only sent a part of it!

but I did fit it and an iPod into my jeans this morning. the IC is the issue, as people stated.

yet since the cable connections are quite amazingly silent, it's not a huge issue either

Is that an amplifier in your pocket, or are you just...

 

[GAD]

Agreed on the ICs. In my review, that's why I state that I'd rather just use the Nano while exercising.

Great animation GAD!

Just thought I would like to share these pictures to give additional perspective for those planning to buy any one of these beauties.

The last picture shows their relative sizes when all their back right corners (viewed from the front) have all been lined up.

Nice pics Tbln!
