I think I may buy it at around $200. would be nice if Firestone sells them now instead.

I got mine off Massdrop for $180 something. This thing sounds more open than mojo. Awesome sound quality, definitely worth the price

how does the old version that has bass boost compare to the new HDB

The old one has bass boost? Is it balanced?

Zelda, is still worth getting in your opinion? Have you tried comparing with other amps recently? Anything better for price and/or performance?

what's the current price for the HDB?

 

[talan7]

$159 on Massdrop! Definitely worth it. Massdrop aint playing! They have xduoo xd05, fireye hdb and creative soundblaster e5 at the same time. I have all 3. Sound quality goes to fireye hdb, (only f you use balanced), power goes equally to xd-05 and soundblaster e5. Features definitely go to soundblaster, cool factor as well. I haven't used my soundblaster in almost a year. I'm going to listen to it and compare all 3 later today.

that's a crazy deal on the HDB! fully balanced and 4-pin plug (input and output)
i could get an extra one for me

 

[malachidjl]

Thank you both!!!
