MIKE:
Glad to know you have the Headphone Transducer. With all your many systems, you are the ideal person to put it to a comprehensive test. I think we may even see a smile on Warren's face when he gives the Transducer a listen.
Your photos do a good job of showing the transducer's size, and I am sure they are the first to be published on the internet (does Mike Mercer ever sleep?). Your equipment pictures remind me of how far our hobby-passion has come since my first CanJam at the LA airport hotel in 2009.
I got my HOT today, and I am testing it out! I have several DHC cables to use with it, as well as my LCD 2F and Alpha Dogs. I haven't formed any opinions yet as to the sound. I am using it with my LCD 2F and DHC Molecule Extreme at the moment. All of my DHC cables are SE, and I have seven of them, so it will take some time to decide if I really like what I am hearing. Seems like the sound resembles crossfeed, which I can turn off in my jRiver Media Center! My ears don't really know what to listen for with the HOT, such a new product!
I returned the HOT for refund. I use jPlay with jRiver Media Center, and I found that with jPlay 5.2.1 upgrade that jPlay exceeds the results that I was getting with the HOT. This new version of jPlay is quite an upgrade from the previous 5.2, I'm blown away, more open, more detailed, more refined, bigger soundstage!
