I thought this was insanity until I read Bascom King.
I think the crowd funding in this case is mostly a marketing move. Audeze is pushing out into more and varied products at a brisk pace. I am surprised that only 14 amps have been taken. A 25%+ discount is a pretty decent marker to entice with even if the trade off is not being able to hear it first. I would be worried about a $4k price point if I didn't see more sales @ 25% off. Bascom King's reputation is the driver on this deal. I wish it had balanced output too maybe if this the launch goes will there will be a balance option in the future. I am willing to try it up against Cavalli amps I own because I love their headphones so much. I wish we could get a little kickback on the LCD4. for owning 3 or more Audeze products..............
PS - What kind of wood are the rings on the LCD4 made from????
Still only 15 Kings sold............. That number should be higher
Nobody is stopping you from "contributing".

Seems like, given balanced circuits are useful for cancelling interference, unless your headphone cable is routed across a bunch of other active cables or components, balanced connection are not so necessary. Nobody seems too worried about connecting regular speakers via balanced connection.
Darn, I wished they offered a discount on the LCD-4. I would buy it as a package. I do like that they accept returns. Will they charge a re-stocking fee?
