Yes I did!  Micca told me to give it a shot and see if it either went through or any got canceled.  Fingers crossed :wink:
 
EDIT:  Although this does not seem promising, lol.  Why am I ineligible!?

I don't have an amp yet, but I have been looking to get one. Would this make a good amp to start with, just as an introduction to others?
It was either this or I build my own CMOYBB, any opinions either way?

it really depends on what you want. What genre's you like and stuff and what headphones you have. If you want a great upgradable amp (as in allows ur heapdhones to upgrade) then....probably yes

Haha thanks! I'll definitely look into this then!


there are revies on here, headfonia and headfonics

this page takes about 20 seconds to load. most would like this better than the Cmoy from what i have heard from users. this is 3X it's price though but it's increased power, options, DAC should be something to look forward to. i don't have this yet, and i don't own the Cmoy, i just know this form what one user said about it compared to E17

anyone tried pairing this with high end custom iems like jh 16 pros, es5s, 1986 quads, heir 8As? Was wondering if it boosts these already high end iems up to a different level or you'll need a better amp like picos/RSAs to do it properly?
