I can attest to the fact, that at 350 its still a good deal. Having it available at 295 is a steal. Happy Holidays to all.

Hi all. My Hornet (#6041)arrived yesterday (and yes I did have to sign for it, lucky for me I was home for today is a holiday). Everyone who said that the size looks bigger in the pics were right on. I simply cannot beleive that this thing is so small. Charged it up and I'm breaking it in now...

Please Ray, reserve one for me.

I am the lucky recepient of Lou's MS-1. I listen to the MS-1 more then my SR-60's. The sound is smoother and low's tighter. Lou's loss in my gain. (Sorry Lou)

Maha charger MH -C490F and one battery was something like 39.00. Look on thomas-distributing for prices. Enjoy

To answer your first question. Yes you can use a rechargable 9 volt in the Portaphile. In fact I am using one in mine right now as I type this. Cesar recommends the Maha on his website, and thats the one I went with. From what I gather most rechargables are only 8.4 volts (nominal) and the Maha...

When I ordered a Portaphile from Cesar, he suggested a gain of 5 for me. I currently have Grado's, but I explained to him that in the future who know what I will end up with. It is a very sweet amp and Cesar is great to work with.
