  Oh gawd, I'm ashamed to admit I've yet to hear the Alpha Dog, and now the Prime is out >.> 
 
here's to hoping Dan does a Tour with the Prime xD

 
We spent a lot of time in the DT880 thread I know you moved to the orthos and so have I. You need to check them out at a Head-fi meet near you :]

We've decided to do a trial run of 30 upgrades.  The page will be live later today.  
 
A short detail of why we're doing a trial run is here.

Hmm good idea, it's great to see that your willing to reach out and collect data like that!

Wow, 6:30 AM PST, and there is only one upgrade left!

Too late (for me). Seems someone has got the last one .

You know we are waiting... ....
 

I am preparing something but I do not want to rush this. Time is required to adjust to and understand what I am hearing...also to let them run-in a bit.

A audiophile feeding frenzy it was, like piranhas stripping the flesh to the bone lol.

They went fast! I allocated 16 to Alpha and 14 to Mad Dog, but as the Mad Dogs are going much slower I took 10 from the Mad Dogs and added 10 more to the Alpha queue.

The Alphas were sure going fast!  At 6 AM PST, there were 2 left.  by the time I sorted my paypal at about 6:20 AM, I got the second to last one.  Looks like 10 left as of this post.  I'm willing to jump in without hearing them.  I have enough experience with Dan's preferred sound signature and perfectionist tendencies that I know I will like them.
 
Dan - Do we just mail ours in, or wait for contact from Mr. Speakers?

Wow there is much interest in the Primes! The web states:
 
Once you have ordered, please await a notification that we are ready to receive your headphone. It will include shipping directions. We will process Alpha Dog to Alpha Prime upgrades first, as these are going to be faster and easier, and shouldn’t impact Prime delivery commitments.
 
The thing working with Dan Clark is that he has more or less has a focused approach on what his headphones should sound. Not a different type of sound like but higher quality as you go up.

Dan,
Are these 30 upgrades going to slow you down on fulfilling the AP orders already in the queue?

No, that is why I am asking people to not ship until I send directions.

I'm thinking that these should come with some sort of "Certificate of Authenticity", especially the upgrades.  It would have been nice with the first round of Alpha Dogs, but with the upgrades to Primes, it might be a good protective measure...

Thanks for the suggestion, let me look into it. I do suspect that'll be harder to make copy proof than the risers, but perhaps there is something...

Great! Thanks Dan.... you are the man!
