The basshead thread will be stuffed with owners of this black beauty. Most of us already have the iDSD micro. Any graph on the change in bass boost? @iFi audio
iFi/AMR ‘OV’ series stands for ‘Operationsverstärker’ (German for Operational Amplifier). iFi/AMR’s ‘OV’ range IC's use HCOFC copper lead-frames and 4N Gold bond-wire which is streets ahead of mainstream commercial chips that use inexpensive aluminum bond-wire and low-grade and low-cost copper in the lead-frames.
It is seldom found because it requires custom packaging of chips from wafers and has a very high MOQ (30,000 pcs per part and purchase) to do. Therefore, the parts used in the micro iDSD BL are ‘above and beyond.’
Specifically the iFi OV2028 is a BJT input Dual OV with extremely low-noise, wide bandwidth and high slew rate.
The iFi OV2627 is an FET input Dual OV with low noise, extremely wide bandwidth and very high slew rate.
Sign ups for the tour will end 11/30. After that, the team will need some time to organize the list of reviewers for each region. We'll be sure to get things cracking as soon as we can as we're just as excited for you all to hear the new Micro iDSD Black Label as you guys are!

Ah ok I must have missed that part. Yes i'm just excited, hoping to be chosen because I am "sans" portable amps right now, so i need this in my life, lol
X4 Please answer this question - Thank you. Beyer 250 Ohm headphones need to be run in Turbo mode to sound good
Can I assume that USB jack position has not been changed- Currently the Jack is at corner, but most mobile phones the micro USB is in the middle - If we stack the mobile device on iDSD micro, the otg cable becomes unusable after 2 months
Not sure how to answer that question but 11 is a good # so..
Depends on what you like.
The iDSD has a wider presentation IMO.
Some folks say the Mojo has more detail retrieval which is something probably related to the drivers being used.
I am very stoked to see the improvements as it was pretty close to perfect in the original form (iDSD micro) so an improved version should be kinda epic.

To my knowledge, the low level channel imbalance is a trade off of using an anolog volume control. Im not sure if it is possible to reduce the trade off but I'm quite certain that it can't be eliminated without going digital. Then again, this is to my knowledge.
I thought of the USB in the middle before but I would rather have my RCA ports together imo. But it definitely will work better if the USB port is in the middle for portability. Have you tried 90 degree angled USB?

Not very familiar of the amp/DAC you mentioned but it could be using a digital potentiometer. Here's a link you can read up to about analog potentiometer if you are interested: http://www.head-fi.org/t/528261/channel-imbalance-in-your-volume-pot-some-thoughts [not my post. Found it just now to confirm my post]
