Very few portable players have digital out.

That's all I can think of.

According to Brittany: It will not be until 2 to 3 weeks before the first one's ship.
Aaron its early and my coffee has not taken full effect but we do not share similar expectations. I do not think that failure to "share" they lost a member of the design team as not being truthful. There are countless things that occur during a products R & D cycle and I do not expect a blow by blow account of them particularly when the product is not late as of yet. I think we were told September and I would not expect a notice of delay until they know they will not come to market this month. Additionally while this rumor may be true it also may be false and I do not expect Jerry and company to explain this to me as a customer. I simply expect a product equal to or greater than what I heard in Chicago. If they are a month off the target I'm not going to sweat that as life is to short but others mileage may vary.
Sennheiser and JH audio are vastly different as companies and I would expect them to have different capitalization needs. Not unike the difference between BMW and Tesla they are both top flight but are very different companies.
I do not think your points are not valid I just think that JH does not owe anyone an explanation about anything on Sept 1st.
With regard to the "all about the money" feeling. it is your feeling so no one can validate or invalidate it but just 5 minutes in conversation with Jerry informs you otherwise. I think you know that Jerry is the creative side and Britt is the financial side. I would expect when talking with Jerry you'd walk away giddy high on his creative enthusiam and with Britt you'll walk away with a clear understanding of your transaction. They play different roles in the company, I am happy Britt stated the "no refund" up front as it creates clear understanding. If you had a "bad feeling" about your purchase you maybe should not have made it, perhaps you can sell your place in line
So we probably agree more than we disagree on this, heck I still have to oder my spidf cable for digital input on the DSP/Amp.
I was told "mid-August", just for the record. I'm not sure where september came from.
The understanding I left CanJam with was that the end of August was a very optimistic target. Which basically meant to me, "prolly september."
I'm not too worked up. 'Long as they deliver the product I expect in September, I'm happy.
The whole "No refunds" thing is just weird... But like immtbiker, I knew what I was doing anyway.
well, i just called my audiologist. He has experience with IEM molds and was very confident and trustworthy. he was also great to talk to.
he said he cant do cotton tips (dams as they call them) like JH asks because its too risky. he wants to use foam which JH says can tear, but he says the impressions he will make will be so deep that he could remove the foam and it wouldnt matter.

anyone else have any experiences like this?
I emailed JH to ask if foam would be ok even though they dont recommend it. if i get the go ahead, its time to sell my rig.. the excitement is mounting!!!
I was only able to get the foam tips and was worried too. However I asked Jerry and he said it was ok. When I got the customs they fitted great.
You'll be fine if he goes deep.
Getting married, is a tough decision. Ordering a great pair of headphones, is not.
well, when you have no income and have spent months selling all your possesions to save up for this one nice thing, and then decide you might sell the entire rig for another rig that may very well be impossible to resell, having never heard it, and when its not even released yet... yes, it is a tough decision.

I didn't mean to minimize your situation, just add a little levity to it.
Most of us "old timers" knows what it's like to eat Kraft Macaroni and Cheese, and Cup of Noodles, three times a day, but rest assured, as a person gets older and has a solid living it gets better. Even with all of the bills and responsibilities of getting through your mid-20's to your mid '30's, eventually, you will be able to be a little less frugal with your purchases. You have to earn your licks.
Heck, I had to leave my first wife to really start to enjoy my "thrill of the chases".
