When you give a cable company $1500 you will lose all my respect.

Well....looks like we finally got the answer to our questions. On paper it looks pretty good and the price is up there but not outrageous if it actually delivers all that and a bag of chips sound wise.
 
Congrats estreeter and kiteki you both nailed the pricing
 

 

[milford30]

well it's crossed of my list, 829 retail with 7 hours quoted battery life... prob less in reality... i rather get the studio V at half the price

 

[thisismyname]

anyone would have a try?

 

[alphaphoenix]

Interested to know what the baseline is for 7 hours of playback - 128kb, FLAC, hi-res?  Also, 1 year warranty with 10 year free labor, is that a sentence typo?  Price is definitely in the HM-801 territory.

 

[drmind]

Well, I guess that it's gonna be my first review!
