Thanks for posting the pictures.  
 
To whomever:
I look forward to detailed comparisons with the 4G and 4T.  
(Please list associated equipment and music resolution.)

[size=medium]To my setup, the C5 has more bass quantity than 4G, therefore it does not work well with XBA40 sub woofer. The 4G is clearly better than C5 in terms of music presentation, details and defined bass, and  C5 is darker when ABed with 4G, however I found C5 worked with RE262/272 better. [/size]
[size=medium]So it is quite depending on a person music setup. And the difference is also come with extra cost for 4G, however IMO is worth to pay extra  100 usd to have the 4G.[/size]

My experience of buying an arrow didn't go very well!
I decided to buy one last week, i was choosing between the arrow or jds labs C5, mainly for the bass boost.
Anyway, finally decided to go for the Arrow, so ordered one from the website, and chose to pay with Paypal, but unfortunately the link to Paypal messed up and it said i had been timed out.
 
This resulted in me having an order email with order number, but no way of paying for it!
No problem, so i emailed Robert to tell him what happened, and received nothing back.
 
I waited a few days, then i bought the C5!-A question i asked jds labs about the charger was answered within 10 minutes, and it was sent within 30 minutes.
 
I'm still waiting to hear from Robert!
 
Good customer service is so important. You need to know you will be looked after if anything goes wrong..

 
You can send money directly to Robert paypal account: [size=13.600000381469727px]mail@headstage.com[/size] then leave a note on your order id.

Like you would send money to someone who isn't responding to emails.

Thanks for that info,but yes, i would certainly be reluctant to send any money without hearing anything..
 
He did reply in the end,a week later, but i've already ordered the C5 now anyway.
 
I definitely don't want to say anything bad about Robert or the arrow amp because I'm sure he is totally trustworthy, and that the amp is great. He has always replied to my emails in the end, I just found the service a bit too slow for my liking. Like i said before, it's not so bad before ordering it, but if something were to go wrong with the amp, the slow replies/service may become more problematic for me.

The arrow 4g sounds amazing with my shure srh840

 
I agree ... when I had my 3G Arrow, the 840's were some of my favorite cans with them. Great drive and punchy bass ...

Got my 3G back from the guy I sold it to and so very happy. God I missed this thing.
 
Right now I have it paired with my old school iPod Video 5.5 Gen>Arrow 3G>Magnus1-IC>TH600
 
Heaven...
 
 
Thanks,

I literally just opened my srh840's like 3 hors ago lol

But I can tell they're already a good match.

What should I expect from burning in the shure's? Any changes/improvements?

 
I bought my pair used and so they already had a good amount of play time on them. So I can't really answer that...
