Chord have described it as their biggest product launch ever, and are using words like «revolutionary».

So it must be something really big.

Getting back to DAVE's US pricing, I see that an authorized Chord dealer has just updated their site and now shows the price to be $13,300 without the optional stand and $16,000 with it. This now agrees with the $16,000 with stand price posted by the US distributor, Bluebird Music.

Hi Rob,
 
This may be a bit late or indeed nonsense as far as you are concerned, but would it be possible to add a discrete volume level or even 3 to the Dave, possibly settable? By this I mean a button that reduces volume instantly without muting the output. There are a couple of reasons, first I listen to a lot of radio (the original Arcam DAB tuner feeding my Chord Indigo - Chord's current best DAC and with a headphone out to boot :wink:  ) and I always have to turn the volume down when the DJ/announcer comes back on. Or if someone calls or knocks on the door and I don't want to completely mute the music, just reduce it. I assume it's easy to create a set point(s) as per the Hugo, maybe to even select a turn on volume regardless of the volume set when turned off - not aware of these features on other volume controlled devices.

OT

You made my day:joy:
Very small odds my friend, but hey!:
Hope is the last thing that leaves the human..

Rob: Can you manage to squeeze in a micro wave in the Dave would be a huge plus, because then we HeadFi:ers do not need to leave for lunch break, but that chance is less than 1 in a million.. :wink::wink:

Have a nice evening fellow Headfi:ers!
