Wired Review   Here are some quotes:  "Regardless of their size, shape, or overall design, few of these DACs will do more for your music than the Antelope Zodiac Silver." "Every detail was crystal clear, magnified with ease, but not overblown. In some cases, I could even hear (or...

Very thorough review of the Zodiac and the technology behind it in DigitalTrends They had some very nice things to say about the headphone amp.  :-)

The reviewer's general tag line for the Zodiac Gold is " Clean, Neutral, Accurate & Desirable"   They talk about how the headphone amp is trying to present "just the facts", which I think is fair.  We're not hyping or adding to the audio.  Our products are designed and intended to present...

The dual-stage headphone amp should be able to drive these headphones.  Sorry for the delay, didn't notice your question until just now.

Quote: Depending on your budget, the new Eclipse does have the relay control on the headphone out and sounds quite amazing.  Shipping around mid-Dec.  It's marketed for studios, but we're already getting interest from audiophiles who want to record hi-rez, for example. Regards, Marcel

Just in case there are some clock customers at Head-Fi, fyi we're also offering our OCX at $300 off ($1095) during the holidays.   Supplies are limited on the special guys, so it's a great time to move if you've been considering a Zodiac. Let me know if you have any questions...

Quote: That's great to hear Todd.  Looking forward to your official review.    

  I've not had a chance to try out the Planar's, but with the Zodiac Noir's selectable impedances (120 and 0 ohms), you should have plenty of power for them. I'll have to ask our engineers if we have some THD numbers, etc for you.

Are you the guy who bought the Noir (black) Bundle?  I'm sorry about the delay on the Voltikus.  We just switched our logistics center and your Voltikus is boxed up and leaving tomorrow.  I'm sorry about the delay.  It wasn't the dealer's fault at all, just fyi.  

Thank you.  It was in the Headphone category.  I suppose people are still wrapping their heads around what a USB DAC with built-in pre-amp AND headphone pre-amp actually is.  But, we've never advertised with them, so you have to respect their unbiased choice.  :-)

Not bad for a newcomer.  The Zodiac Gold has been our biggest seller for Antelope in 2011 and we're extremely proud of all the new markets it's opened up for us.

Hi, there are several dealers that have access to the Gold and Sweetwater can indeed special order it.  Todd The Vinyl is another, you might try. Thanks,

Sorry for the late reply.  It was a fully broken in unit.  I hope a few of you got a chance to hear it.

Come stop by the Earo Speakers booth in Room 441 at RMAF to hear the Zodiac Gold in action.  The Earo guys said it's cool to bring your headphones with you and plug into the Gold.  Their speakers are pretty darn cool, as well.
