I'm down :) I can bring a super crack, a sex, and a smash.

Just placed an order for $200 caps the day before this was announced :( I'm sure I'll find a reason to place another before the month is up

Thanks Skylar, I appreciate your info and clearing this up. Someone on our side will be getting an earfull today. I knew this sounded shady from the start, figure Id ask here.

I was told online retailers like crutchfield and Amazon got the bulk of it. That's why Id like to hear what skylar says.

I've been in custom AV for a long time, this doesn't happen often, if ever, especially not without notice. If a vendor told my firm that they would have to wait 6+ months for a production run, they would get kicked to the curb real quick like. It would make more sense for them to not release the...

I'm a dealer for audioquest, I called my rep to get a pair and was told that the nighthawks are sold out and the next production run won't be until December. What is that about? Go on sale for two days, now we can't get a pair for another 6 months? That's insanity. I've already waited a year...

I know that I'm late to the party, and haven't read through all of the replies but I may have something to add. Dr Sean Olive and his associates at Harman international have done some extensive research and came up with the Olive Welti curve. It's not based on DF. They find that more people...

I purchased a black Lyr and Bifrost, too damn sexy to pass up. I wasn't even in the market for the pieces either. Too bad they can't stick a Valhalla 2 in the black Valhalla 1 chassis. I tried to purchase it and got shot down :( would've been nice. I guess I'll have to wait until the next...

I definitely will. I appreciate all the info.

I don't have my 500s yet, waiting to be shipped. I bought the Lyr specifically for them. Or maybe I bought them specifically for the Lyr. Either way, the 500s will be the first cans in the Lyr. I haven't even fired the amp up yet.

Lyr, Q's, Nails, He500's!! Now I know I'm in the right spot! My gear, my flavor of music. I'm home! :P

Perfect! Thank you very much

Sorry to change the topic but if someone can tell me where to purchase socket savers (not sure if that's what they're technically called) or let me know what they are specifically called so I can search for them, it would be much appreciated?

I will give a good listen to my stock tubes for now. I'm building a short list of recommended tubes then I will purchase 3-4 sets about 3-4 weeks apart from each other. I think I will do a good, better, best setup. Probably with a budget of $500-600 for 3-4 matched pairs for the Lyr an a few...

Yeah I kinda think I'm the same way. I don't want to get all caught up in technicalities and spend less time enjoying the music. A few sets of recommended tubes is cool. I'm not going to micro analyze them. Either they will sound good or they won't.
