What were the plug-in card thingies that Larry used to talk about (name and purpose )? I don't see anything about that in the sale page description.

CCX modules. Looks like those will be unique to the IGG campaign units.
Oh right, CCX modules. I wonder if they scrapped those all together because they aren't mentioned in the "IGG Only" descriptions. Example: http://marketplace-lhlabs.com/igg-only-vi-dac-tube-infinity-signature-edition/
I don't think so, click the link I posted above, it suggests otherwise.
Well... well... for those of you still awaiting a ViDac SS/-Tube the wait should be over by March 28th.
At least that's my understanding based on the availabilities of the so called "ViDac Pro" (http://marketplace-lhlabs.com/vi-dac-pro/) and "ViDac Tube Pro" (http://marketplace-lhlabs.com/vi-dac-tube-pro/)
Since the page I linked includes a long description of the Tube Vi (IGG Only model) specs and says nothing of CXX, who knows which page to trust? Of course, I hope you are right. I wonder why there aren't photos of CXX modules yet. Especially with the implied intent to ship all IGG Vi's in March. LOL. I can't imagine how many hours/days Larry will need to spend to build each Signature Vi alone. And that's IF he has the milled aluminum cases on hand which there is no evidence of. And that's on top of all the other projects...etc. Fingers crossed but admittedly haven't found much hope this past year.
And with all that state of the art technology
Dual 2015 ESS SABRE9018AQ2M DAC Chips
Vi's DAC's design has always been to utilize ESS' Sabre 9018 DAC microchip for its digital to analog conversion. [COLOR=FF0000]New for 2015, ESS has released the 9018AQ2M, which boasts even better harmonic distortion characteristics than its predecessor, as well as a lower noise floor and greater dynamic range. You have the option to utilize this new chip if you so choose[/color]
Yes definitely still not entirely clear, but the existence of the CCX modules on their new web shop and the fact they were both promised to and paid for by the IGG backers, makes it difficult to believe the CCXs wouldn't be included.
Indeed very irritating everything. Why are even "IGG" thingies mentioned (not only the CCX modules but also the DACs)?
Will they be sold (at a reduced price?) although the new "Pro" series is mentioned?
