That is exactly what Ray told me in a phone call a little while ago.

sounds fantastic... hope there is a pre-order discount.

 

[Decel]

Hope I don't miss the pre-order period!

 

[ManAtWork]

My cupidity asks if there is a bundle discount to order both Shadow and P-51 together.

Oh Ray,
I keep waiting for the sale of the shadow.
However, I am tired to the waited thing recently.
The way things are going, "Karoushi" will be done.
Please put the shadow on the market early.
Thank you very much.

Death by overwork. Very good.

 

[enlight]

wow, that looks cool.

the power direct from USB ?

 

[fengtard]

Hi Ray,
since it charges through USB, how long would it take to fully charge the Shadow?

thanks!

The Shadow comes with universal adaptor charger with USB plug at it's end. You can also charge it from PC USB if you happened to have forgoten the Charger. As to the charging time, the new Shadow has a charging circuitry built on the Shadow's PC brd. Once fully charged the RED LED will turn off indicating that the battery is charged.
With the Adaptor, the charging time is around 2.5 hours, due to 1 amp current output of the adaptor.
With the computer's USB, charging time is around 3 hours.
The Play back time is 6-7 days at 8 hours per day from a single charge.

Excellent and promising info. Thanks Ray.

Yep - I told myself that when I bought my ES3x, that was my last audio purchase for a year. HA - right.
I am definitely getting in on the first order of these guys.

Ray - looks awesome, please keep up the good work (and please release the shadow quickly and at an affordable price!

)

offtopic - its amazing how much my perception of "affordable" has changed since joining head-fi.
"Sorry about your wallet" rings true, but "sorry about your credit score" might be more accurate....

x2. Well put!

Ray,

Hi. Could I ask you to clarify when you say that the soundstage is more "focused" on the Shadow than the P51. Did you mean clearer imaging, less width dispersion, or both? Thanks.

Wonder if by August we could have the for sale ad, sure looks nice and promising.
