Just got my Modi MB in the mail today (ordered last Saturday). Great service, as usual. Will plug it in this evening.

Wouldn't that be a 33% increase?

 
 

 

 
1.5 to 2 is a 33% increase (difference / initial value) = (0.5 / 1.5) = 0.33 = 33%

Too bad my order was cancelled as they thought it was flaudulent, can't blame them though, I was ordering with my Indonesian credit card and send it to my US Shipito address. Not sure to be sad or happy about it, as that made me rethinking of the purchase a bit (sort of impulse clicking that time). I guess I'll wait to read for some review before reordering again, this time straight to my address.

In situations like yours, I seem to recall Jason saying that if you use PayPal it reduces their risk, but I could be remembering wrong.

Yeah, they recommend using Paypal on my next order. The only thing with Paypal is I can't send it to my Shipito address, to which I could combine my other purchase to single package and save overall shipping cost with multiple items. Anyway, I think I'll order again later, holding off for now to read some more reviews.

OK.  Difference / initial value.  Got it.  Thanks!

It would be interesting to know (has anyone had the time to test yet?) if the new Modi Multibit needs a lot of warm up time to sound its best?

Because it is smaller and 16 bit, it is relatively quick. (24 hours is most of the way.)

Confession: ever since I got my Modi 2 uber 4490 last month, I haven't turned it off. I assume the electrical cost is negligible judging by how small and cool it runs but I actually haven't looked into it. It's nice not having to wait for it to warm up.

The weakest link is the supplied power supply i guess, anyone thinking of alternatives power? Ifi DC ipurifier or just a r-core or toroidal transformer LPS that have EMI filter suppressing RFI noise?
