Sorry if this is out of place, but I didn't know where to ask.   Do you think it would be possible to run this card externally?  As in, independant of the computers PCI slot?   I only use the 2 channel analog outputs, but would like to free up my single pci-e port (mini-ITX motherboard...

Quote: My theory is that they will release the 2.2 firmware with the North American debut.  In the UK, they get their phones for free.  Here, we are more picky when we are shelling out a few hundred for a phone on a three year contract.

I odered my s:flo2 on March 8th, it was "shipped" on the 2nd of June, and actually shipped on June 14th. I just checked my tracking number with Canadapost, and it hit Missasaga at 8:30pm. I should get it tomorrow if it clears customs alright. So exciting. I hope it lives up to what I've built it...

Quote: Cool, thanks for the heads up.  Any chance you could supply a link?  I have not yet read any reviews regarding sound quality. Thanks!

Quote:   Wow, I'm getting a MoFi case that was already included in my purchase, instead of the FM transmitter that I was looking forward to? Thats special.

Im just learning about android now, as I am an iPhone user, currently, but somebody has 'rooted' the streak.   I am guessing that that is akin to 'jailbreaking' and iPhone.   I'm sure after that, you can do anything to it, and customize it as you please.   Heres the link to the article. 

I just hope that we get the same treatment over here that they got in the UK from O2.  Free on contract. I kind of doubt it.

Quote: Well, I don't intend to use it as a primary audio device, as I have an S:flo2 in the mail.  But this would be great for watching videos while on the bus or train, and if I didn't want to carry around an S:flo2, microamp, HD-650's and a streak at a particular moment.

I am excited for the North American debut of the Dell Streak sometime next month.  So far it was just released yesterday in the UK on O2. I really wonder how this thing will sound paired up with an amp. There is a dock available with line out and HDMI, through the proprietary docking...

Quote: If anyone is looking for incredible battery life in a portable amp, I bought the Headroom Portable Micro Amp a few months ago and this ling lasts forever. One the website, it says 14hours, i believe, but that is not what I have experienced.  I listen for 2.5 hours or more per day...

Quote: Thanks.  It was a birthday present from my wife, way back in early march (8th).  It has been a long wait.   Quote: So Young Spade, give us your impressions then.  We have all been waiting so long for this player, and have been reading this thread to help the time...

Free shipping. Also I did not bundle with the M1/M2's. Raz said that the EMS will take longer to ship out for EMS, as he has to hand write the labels. Also, if the M1's or M2's are bundled, then you also have to wait a day or two. Thats what I understood anyways.

My status changed to 'MAILED OUT" !!!!

Anyones' status change to "shipped" yet? Mine....Not so much... I just hope I receive it before I move out of my place.

I bought the Headroom Portable (latest model) Micro Amp to pair with my Sennheiser HD-650's.  I am waiting for my S:flo2, and I am assuming it will be sufficient for this DAP, as it has 3 gain settings, and was $400.00. Any input would be appreciated. Thanks guys.

Oh no! Has Raz shut down this thread too?!?! ;)

Arg... I am tired of reading descriptions of how it sounds! I want to experience the S:flo2!!! Damn you Nationite and your 'Delays'

Hey, I am sure you'll have no problem driving the HD800's with the Desktop Amp. I wish I remember where, but somewhere on this forum, I read an opinion about the HD-650's sounding better than the HD-800's. Now I am sure that is just someones opinion, and I don't know who that is, but perhaps...

So is this version of the Micro, new? For the record, I am getting incredible battery life out of this thing, running my Senn HD-650's on high gain. I had it running for about 3 hours a day for 7 days, then decided to charge it so it didnt die on me during my travels. Anyways, total must have...

Yea, same here. I only use the amp for portable use (no digital out) or on my HTPC, where I am satisfied with my Asus Xonar STX Essence, out to the Micro. I was just asking to see what you thought of it. I figured it was too expensive also.

Thanks guys. I was half expecting someone to jump down my throat. I dont think I would spend big money on it. I might be able to get the cardas HD650 connectors for a decent price, but I don't know if the cable I have would make much of a difference. I have a bunch of Mogami quad cable that...

@3602 Did you take the DAC option on yours?

Can we please get back on topic? I am actually interested in doing this, if it does anything. If you want to argue, just PM each other. So, the general populous on this thread say that re-cabling is not worth the money?
