No.

I don't think it needed it. The amp was spot on anyway. My meter reads to three decimal places and it was always about 0.1 +/-. Initial readings were a little off but after an hour of running it settled right down. Very easy to do. Not entirely sure how often I should do it though. I assume 200 - 500 hours of run time perhaps?

Nice to see the new batch rolling out to owners.  Anxiously awaiting mine!

Someone in Germany on Ebay is selling an SRM T2 for $24K USD. This makes the BHSE look like such a good value.

That would be the infamous (and banned) flipper known as "Wiktor". Lol.

  I ordered mine on 02/27/2012 but that was simply the deposit payment. I picked the features and ultimately the colour at a later date. 05/12/2014 is when the final payment was made.
 
The sound is wonderfully transparent yet totally relaxed and natural. It sounds quite realistic to me in that every instrument sounds as it should. Every detail on the recording comes out clearly and it effortlessly reproduces the music. It apparently has limitless power with incredible bass response without being overpowering or overblown. This is quite clearly an amp I could live with forever. It's simply beautifully executed and the sound is truly remarkable.

Congratulations again, Point... And imagine that, according to seasoned BHSE owners, using NOS EL34 tubes instead of standard Mullards greatly improve the SQ!

Much better value and better quality as well.  The original T2 is excellent but has problems with PSU design and will burnt out according to Birgir & KG.  For that price, you might can get two (2) DIY T2 if you can find a builder.

What's the wait time these days for an amp? I sent a query to place an order to Justin but no reply yet.

You're kidding right?

Patience is a virtue, and you need to be a saint when waiting for these. They can take over 2 years to be completed, but the lower bound is much less certain. Just relax, gettgin worked up won't get you anywhere.
 
Edit - I put in an order last night, I've got a vested interest in the the amp as well.

No, are you? I'm new to Stax so don't know what the wait time for the amp is. I came across the circuit and design back when it was first posted on the internet, now I'm an all headphone guy and am looking to get one.

I don't know why you think I'm getting worked up. Actually as I said in my email I'm happy with a long wait. I don't want it soon, just want to put an order in and am wondering what to expect.

If you want people to take you seriously at least read four or five pages of this 5 years long thread before randomly asking a question like that.

Sorry for taking up space in this 417 page thread. I've read many of the replies, but the present situation is unclear (to me at least) so thought to ask. If it bothers you, presumably you haven't helped your situation by needling me.

Don't worry, most of this thread is filled with inane posts. If you can't find the answer you are looking for in the last few pages I don't think anyone can help you. Trying to help you to help yourself.

Fair enough.
