I am using an iMP 550 SlimX player for years now and I could not be more pleased. It has everything I wish, it's a very versatile player with lots of formats playback, remote control, optical out and it's slim Never had any problems with this player. Highly recommended.

I am very pleased with the Stello HP100/DA100 amp/dac combination for both my K701s and HD650s.

Didn't know the X5 remote was so wanted. I have one lying in the drawer, hardly used (I needed the HP out of my X5 to connect to my amp). Shoot me a PM if you're interested.

Recently I got my hands on a Stello HP100 to complement my DA100 and I love every minute listening to this setup both with HD650s and K701s. Coming from a Darkvoice 336i this is a major step up. Highly recommended.

According to the email I just got from iBasso I will have the last one: Quote: Hello, Ben, Thank you for your payment. We only reserve several D1 for future replacement. We are not going to sell the D1 again. Your D1 is the last one we sell. We will send your D1 tonight...

Got it coming! Is there a consensus on which opamps (both amp and dac) work best with H120 and ER4p? Also, are there short toslink cables to interconnect H120 and D1? Thanks, Ben
