I just saw that the final features and specs have been released for the new ISA Diablo amp.
I think it's going to be shipping pretty soon. Here is a link to the spec sheet.

Looks pretty nice

I almost forgot about this amp! A real AE-1, SMacro-IV, Hornet(-M) competitor... I wonder how much this will cost?

Wow. that looks like one hell of an amp. Looks like plainsong may be eating her words.

 

[steaxauce]

I want this amp! I hope it becomes available soon. If you have information, please post!

afaik, the first batch will be released soon.
almost all have been already reserved and the price of first batch is around $500.
and if they release a second batch later, the price may go up a little.

So this amp is not priced to compete with a Hornet then? I thought it was going to be in the 300 price range. I guess its ahornet for me?

Looks op-amp based. Is it using the AD8610/20?

That much I know: $500

 

[trose49]

Are these amps even in the same catagory?

 

[steaxauce]

Ah, you beat me to it! I'm getting one!

It sort've worries me that they don't have one to photograph so close to when it's supposed to be released.

I see volume, bass, and I guess that's the power switch. Where's gain and panorama?

Edit: What was I thinking? That price is right!

Don't know?! They're aimed at the same high-end users, but I think the $500 price tag of the Diablo will really make them super high-end.
