Regarding the heatsink, are you guys running in High Gain, Class A, NuTubes, and over 50% volume or something like that? For most of my IEMs in Low Gain, Class AB, and Tubes it could get warm after extended listening session, but nowhere near where it needs a heatsink :D Unless people are doing this as part of accessory decoration?

Alex, Class A and Korg Tubes

Regardless of gain or volume, you will feel the heat

I use heatsink to protect the other components in the unit and increase longevity.

Edit: I'm selling my Founders Odin for $2400 if anyone's interested PM me.

Did you check out the Blue Orbtronic yet ? It is button too, so you need to have some strong fingers, but it also sound wonderful.

The battery you asked, I have not tried it, so I can’t tell. I know orbtronic uses Panasonic for the red one as they disclosed it, which exact cell is it ? I have no clues

I see that the supplied batteries for the C9 are Sony 3000mAh 3.7v 15A High Discharge versions.
What would happen if I placed batteries in with a 35A discharge?

When using this amp in a desktop setting, can I take a balanced output from an amplifier (such as a violectric v281) and feed into the c9?

Its a pure amp. It will take any analogue balanced input, but why would you want to double amp?
