I would like to know the price breakdown of the system - obviously the HiFiman portable player and dock are available separately, then I think they will more than likely have to start taking headphone only orders because why the hell not - if you designed the thing to specifically be directly compatible with Stax products, you obviously expect maybe Stax amp owners to buy the headphone or Stax headphone owners to buy the amp. Then have they used $10k+ worth of interconnects and power cables and included that in the price? I mean, JPS Labs recent exhibit at RMAF included an Abyss with cable upgrades, Woo mono block amps, dac, aftermarket power cables and interconnects - which was a complete system costing about $50k too. But obviously you don't have to buy an Abyss in that configuration - you can have any of those components individually if they interest you. If HFM doesn't sell the components separately (especially when they are specifically made to be Stax compatible) then I don't know what they're thinking. A proper price breakdown of the individual components would be good.
