Just got the confirmation from a trustworthy source that the amp is only for beginners.
@Giraku not sure about the filters, I haven't actually played with a retail version yet. The pre production unit that I used had all of the filters working correctly. I am at CES with our team. Let me ask them for more info and get back to you.OK. I got mine yesterday!!
Currently testing with various HPs and IEMs comparing against SP1000Cu and Hugo 2.
As for the HP driving power, I tested it with my friend's Beyerdynamic T1.2 and had to turn the volume up to ~90%.
Also it seems like the filters are not working (bass boost and high gain mode). Maybe it requires a firmware update.
@JasonNYC, do you have any info about the filters and firmware update?

Yes, I heard the red ones. Actually, I have been a fan of TH900 for a while but did not buy because of the color. The green one fits me very well.At minimum it really is a great looking amp.
Going off topic for a sec...I notice you have the new green Fostex 900's. Assuming you've heard the red ones, have you noticed any differences in the sound?
