Head-Fi, isn't it time to separate the components in the "Sources" categories?
I've been a long time member of Head-Fi and I can understand why the "Sources" categories (e.g. Dedicated Source Components and Portable Source Gear) contained primarily DACs with a smattering of players/transports in the past.

Not your Mom's HF-2 (with Pictures)
Hey everybody, I just got in a pair of the new run of HF-2 and I noticed there's a bit of a difference that will set them apart from the original run.

P-51 Mustang Amp on the sales list at Ray's Site
I know he had a page for the amp, but it finally showed up on the purchasing page as well (@ $375) However, I don't know if he has released them for sale yet (maybe I caught the updated page too early...I only check it ten or twelve times a day). -HK sends- HK_sends
