I don't think you will regret it. Only that if you need more power then get the Liquid Crimson or Gold. Even the Ragnarok will be great to own.

screw it, just bought one
A phrase often muttered here at head-fi......
I think we have another confirmed vendor on board too. @zach915m care to comment? I would like to know how your Blackwoods sound with this amp...

Mine is a recliner, feet up chillin'...
Wish I was chillin'. Dropped $4500 on a new AC unit that won't get installed until Friday!
I'm on an airbed, floating down an air stream as I await my new companion on it.
I've got Zach's old NFB-28 and we both have Theta's as well. I think I made the right choice on the LC if he's getting one too... we seem to have similar taste in gear. lol
One of these days I need to hear one of his headphones...

Well, I have heard the Carbon a few times already and love it. Think it will be the perfect work sized amp.. now I just need to find a balanced DAC for it..
Lol funny you should mention that... there's a whole other club just for that: http://www.head-fi.org/t/763905/finding-a-dac-for-the-cavalli-liquid-carbon-only-four-months-to-go/

I'm expecting it to be a great home rig amp as well.
A main reason I'm looking for a balanced DAC is so I can connect connect my Liquid Fire to the RCA and a Liquid Carbon to the XLR. I like DACs that have multiple analog outputs. I'll have a Geek Pulse Xfi soon. Thinking about a Yggy... A big advantage for the Yggy is that it has two RCA outputs and an XLR so I'll have and excuse to connect three amps to it, among other reasons.

That would make the Yggdrasil only $766 an amp, which seems like a bargain...

I'd say my comment is more of a reference to the little mental justifications I go through to spend the kind of money that I've spent on this gear. The escalation from the time when I was trying to mentally justify buying a set of TF10's on Amazon and was shocked to see what the Ak100 cost (let alone the Ak120) to now when I recently got an Ak120ii and blind purchased the Liquid Carbon is amazing.
Like we say, "I'm sorry for your wallet"
