Really? How many orders are there for A&E?
I ordered my Ori in early January, and soon after Zach sent me a link to his production spreadsheet for Ori. At the time I was one of 3 planar orders (think it was). I thought that might be a little low, historically, but attributed it to the new designs "stealing the spotlight" from the Ori--at least temporarily, due to pre-order buzz & discount, etc.
These designs are totally different: certainly the Ori (planar) is not very much like of the new dynamics, though its tonal signature is said to be similar to the Atticus'; and the Atticus & Eikon are voiced rather differently from each other. The Eikon seems to be emerging as a true high-end/endgame HP (Atticus not so much).
I love my Ori. Still not even close to figuring out everything it can do...haven't changed pads yet or really experimented much, beyond trying it on various SE amps. Have a couple balanced amps in house now & waiting for balanced cable to arrive so I can hear the Ori balanced.
Very likely an Atticus is in my future; also E-MU Teak, if they ever do another drop on Massdrop.
Looks like the planar list is at 12 while dynamic is sitting at 78 (i think it was 86 yesterday). So, more like 7:1.
I check it daily in anticipation.
