Are these still available?

Thanks for the info Scott. I'm just impatient and looking forward to hearing it!

Ordered an In Stock Pico DAC 1 week ago and it still hasn't shipped!

Hirsch, Recovery time is excellent for some major headphone listening. Best wishes for swift healing and outstanding results. -Tim

I have a rev 0.3 and had major hum with the CD3K, and none with HD600. I bought the unit used from a fellow head-fier who experienced no hum from the unit. However, after an e-mail to Perreaux directly, the unit is on its way to New Zealand to be "fixed". My fingers are crossed. Sounds...

I have not heard these components and mods, but have read some reviews and they are favorable: The Sony DVP-S7700 is a DVD player, but supposedly makes an excellent CD transport. According to empirical audio the stock player compared very closely to the Mark Levinson #37. They mod this for $500...

I have a simlar setup now. I enjoy the iPod/Ety combo. I have not heard the Shure E5s yet, but they also sound like a nice set of canalphones. I have fixup super mini, and a portable META. The META sounds superior to the super mini, but is at least twice the size. But the portable META will...

Interesting thread: I was actually thinking the other day that it was weird how I owned every U2 album up to Rattle and Hum, and not a single one since then. Feel that the peak was between Joshua Tree and Unforgettable Fire, but can also see how some might vote for War. How about: Billy...

This is not an uncommon first impression with Etys. You will read over and over again that it takes weeks to get used to the full sound of the Etys. There is a long learning curve with them, no matter how well you think you're using them in the beginning. A couple of suggestions: 1. Don't...

I've had my Etys for over a year and really like them, but felt them to be a bit lacking in bass impact and lower mid range - just as Tyson described with horn loading. So tried the foam mod, and wow!!! I never used to like the foamies, and have gotten used to the flange tips. However, after...

That limit was placed on European iPods (100 db limit), but it would affect any ipod that underwent the 1.2.6 updater - even in the US. My iPod was clearly missing the volume output it used to have. Reverting to 1.2.1 has made a tremendous difference. Apparently you can still update straight...

I just came across this tip to revert the iPod firmware to 1.2.1. This will remove the 100dB max that was placed on all iPods after 1.2.6 firmware update. The increase in volume is very noticeable. This tip is only for 1st gen iPod owners with a Mac only...

I have the iPod bag from Headroom Corp, which is designed to hold the iPod and their Airhead amp. However, the supermini fits well in there. It allows full access to the iPod, while the bag is closed and it has a belt clip and shoulder strap if needed. If you can spare the cash - this is the...

I don't think it's a waste of money. Just make sure that you're using a high quality encoder (ie. LAME) at a decent bit rate. A lot of people find the volume output of the iPod to be inadequate, so an amp will definitely bring out details as well as increase volume. I used to think my Grado...

Habib: I think you will love the CD-3000. I currently use them much more often than my Senn HD-600/Cardas. The detail is absolutely crystal clear - almost delicate. I had the chance to use them at Hirsch's meet recently with the Gimore V2 and the Emmeline HR-2. Both sounded very nice, but in...
