I have been corresponding with Final Audio Japan and got some information about the new [COLOR=515151]FI-BA-SST:[/COLOR]

[COLOR=515151]1) It will be released in Japan in mid-December.[/COLOR]
[COLOR=515151]2) It has a somewhat different sound to the FI-BA-S (they didn't go into a lot of detail).[/COLOR]
[COLOR=515151]3) The retail price will be 130,000 Yen (1250 USD).[/COLOR]
[COLOR=515151]4) It will come with an OFC silver coated cable (I'm not sure what this is and I'm translating directly from the Japanese).[/COLOR]
5) For anybody who is in Japan, it will be available to demo shortly after the release date in the Final Audio shop.

[COLOR=515151]I am going to respond to Final Audio so if there's anything anybody would like me to ask at the same time, please go ahead.[/COLOR]

Please ask if it has a detachable cable? Also what is the difference in driver design? Is it still a single BA type driver?

You ordered a LabII!? Awesome! Let me know how they are. A bit spicy for me on such an esoteric purchase.

Hahah! I will do so in due course, Mike. Though I'm more anxious to get my hands on the Sony 1Z...

All in good time. Now more focused on my new LCD4... Above & Beyond's Acoustic album on a lazy Sunday morning.

Pair them together for a nice 7k portable rig

Reunited with the Heaven VI - the best of the series, IMO, after owning them(Heavens) all at one point.  Love it that it sounds spectacular out of my Sony Z3c phone, and without the need for a dac/amp.  Money well spent - again.
