Click the "make an offer" button on jasmine's page and negotiate a price.

Jasmine is great to work with, excellent customer service.

It is worth noting that she always gets good recs here while other sellers are rarely mentioned, that is why I bought from her

Ya..I used the same "make an offer" method and my unit is getting ready and will be ship out early Next week..

You should be getting some new tubes by mid-week...

And, LittleDot II++ = Toyota MR2
while DV 332 = Porsche 911 to Ferrari Testa Rossa, depending on tubes of course.

Thanks guys. I made an offer of $400USD including shipping.

 

[leng jai]

Jasmine made me a counter offer of $410 via Paypal. Seems good to me.

EDIT: Just pulled the trigger

I think one of the reasons I was so impressed with the PF XCAN v3 "in it's final days" were the effects of the OPA2134 in my modded CD25 1+, as well as the X10 v3 Tube Buffer, and the XPSU v3 PSU - they synergies between all of those units with my Senns.

I just didn't notice it previously, because I hadn't used that combination of components much, since I swapped to the OPA2134s in the CDP - they made a huge improvement over the dual OPA627s, or the OPA2227s.

I just tried the X10 v3 with my DV332, and it does add much of the same qualities that my PF XCAN v3 reflected in its final days, when driven by my moddifed CD25 1+... but... with more power, drive, weight, etc.

Now... I'm wondering if the Yaqin Tube Buffer would improve the DV332 even more. I realize Godkin uses these together, which is one reason he is so impressed with the DV332, compared to the XCAN v3. And... I realize from prior posts, he prefers the Yaqin Tube Buffer to the X10 v3.

But... if I were going to try the Yaqin Tube Buffer with my DV332... which one should I try - the version with the single 6DJ8 / 6922 tube, or the version with the two 6J1 / 6AK5 tubes???

One vendor says the single tube is the newer and better unit, and another says the dual tube version is the newer and better version.

So which is better???

I was browing through their chinese forum of the darkvoice

then make a shocking discovery

the dv 332 go for 2400RMB

which is 320 USD inclusive shipping(not sure whether it is international shipping)

and they sell for that price according to the thread

http://www.diybuy.net/thread-51309-1-1.html

then i look for the shipping invoice for my darkvoice which i brought from the net for 400 USD

exactly the same place and person

so i guess the middleman earned 80 USD

 

[squall343]

if anyone is interested

you can contact the maker directly from his email which is on the link below

i got mine from
http://forum.lowyat.net/topic/342802?hl=darkvoice

410 USD inclusive shipping..

but he can only do money order, western union

so need to incur some admin fees etc

the cheapest i find is buy directly from the factory from the link i provided a few posts above

320USD

 

[tomjtx]

I suspect that 320 does not include US shipping which would add about 80.00 ,
so buying from Jasmine only adds 10.00

maybe..but from what i read

he uses express shipping(international? maybe)

someone should contact him and ask.

really cheap deal cause he is the maker

and you dun go through any middleman

cause he is the one(from the shipping invoice) that do the shipping

although i ordered from the middleman

 

[minivan]

2400rmb before shipping dude.
the thing is heavy , with shipping it go up to 400 usd
the profit of 80 usd go to the post man
i think the middle man earn something like less then 10 usd
i know because i talk to one of the reseller of dv in china before
