Requested an order for HMS with Drew Baird at Moon Audio, in Cary, NC, USA. Was told "We will add you to a folder and email you when Preorders can be made." Drew is a straight shooter, so, at least with this vendor in the USA, Pre-orders are not yet being taken. I expect that this means that BlueBird isn't taking Preorders yet. I've already waited > 1 y for this device, reading with great interest about the Blu2, but not wanting the CD player. Will enjoy listening to Innuos Zenith SE -> IsoRegen -> Dave -> Moon Audio Black Dragon cabled Focal Utopia while waiting. Sound quality already far surpasses anything I thought I'd be hearing short of live performance. Will buy this version knowing that 2 million FPGA taps will probably exceed this in the future. What an amazing time for digital audio!
