AHH okay thanks for the explanation. I have the xfi not infinity. I am mistaken and thought it was just a new chassis for all pulse dacs.

I thought it was a new chassis for all pulse dacs shipping now. Is this not true?

 

[RingingEars]

This makes me upset. They make all this new stuff before full filling their production. I'm gonna sell it as soon as it comes. I don't even want to hear it. Not to mention my standard pulse came scratched with the freaking volume jacked up. I wonder how isolated I am with these sentiments.

I feel the same way.
Mines already in the FS section and it just shipped out. I'm not even going to plug it in.
The waiting time has nothing to do with the frustration. I expected that, but we were promised these high end dacs for so little money. Between the pulse and LPS I'll probably get half of what I payed for them and they're brand new in the box.
I haven't even received it yet and there's a better version already? Oh well. Live and learn as they say. All a person can do is just scratch LHLabs off the "to do" list. 
I'll never buy another product from them...

That's true, but only for the Pulse X Infinity (for those that opted for it), and all other Pulse variants sold through the current retail channel (ie at retail price).

Well that sucks. I got the plain pulse. You wait a year for something and they couldn't at least provide the newer chassis.

It doesn't suck because you didn't have to hand over all that money for those perks, in fact I would just get the regular Pulse if I have to do this all over again - much better bang for buck.
 
I have zero regret not going for the infinity because that's an extra ~$300 (THD + naked resistors) on top of an Xfi - that's as much as a pair of Hifiman HE400S. No way Jose!

Hi, all

The current Geek Pulse Infinity ship out speed should be roughly 30 ~ 50 per week. So you won’t need to wait for too long.

 

[TopQuark]

30 ~ 50 per week?  I am like at 400 in the list so that will take it to mid-December!  I will be very happy if I get it before Christmas.  These shipment commits by LH Labs are a joke.  Shipping all by the end of September my arse...

 

[nicolo]

This situation reminds me of a Calvin & Hobbes strip. The one where Hobbes teaches Calvin imaginary numbers. Of course Hobbes being Hobbes he makes up numbers  like eleventeen, twelveteen etc. The shipping schedule is exactly like that. If the shipping date is September, think of it as Septemberteen, November as Novemberteen etc. That makes more sense than their shipping schedules anyway.

 

[eliwankenobi]

I am 100-something. I wasnt expecting mine being shipped this week, maybe neither next.. So I am right on schedule. Besides, i dont think there a 100 units between mine and #1

 

[Zenifyx]

Where do you guys get these list numbers!?
I don't think they have 400+ pulse infinities orders to ship tho... (at least I hope not)

 

[greenkiwi]

I'm guessing they got them from three counts of the perks. And or some mentions by lh labs. 400 seems about I the right range.

 

[germay0653]

I have no idea how people are coming up with these numbers. 
 
I perked for two Pulses back in November (4 and 29) of 2013.  I traded up one Pulse for a Vi in November of 2014 and there have been a slew of upgrade perks over time for the Pulse to go to X, Femto Clock, THD, Naked Resisters, $1M upgrade, upgraded Sabre DAC chip, 2.0 chassis etc. etc. so what criteria determines your numbered place in line????

 

[wingsounds13]

In the past they have said that your place in the queue is determined by the date of the initial backing. For Gery, that would be Nov. 4 and 29. Now, where that places him in the actual shipping queue, who knows??? Me? I backed my base Pulse Dec. 21 2013 so I should be some time after Gery. At 30~50 units a week, I think that puts me some time mid November. That's only about 23 months from backing to receiving for many of us...

J.P.

 

[FayeForever]

I will be really disappointed if mine is not delivered by the end of this month and I backed the pulse on 28 Nov. Still how can they be so far off from the original "deliver all of them by the end of Sep."? 

 

[kenshinhimura]

For the people that receive their Pulse already and updated to version firmware 2.29, what is the lowest volume setting? If I turn it all the way to the left it goes to about -127.5.
