I just got my brand new Micro w/DM from Headroom! I was SOOOO happy!
The packaging and care taken in shipping alone really appealed to me. It has the new 2006 module and I'm excited. I have burned it in (supposedly) for the day while I was out and am enjoying it now.
Impressions:
Well, I have a SMacro v3 (buf634p and AD8397; I like the buffers w/ AD8397 because it add a little bass bloat at expense of clarity, but as a portable unit, I prefer that sound.) as reference. These are only impressions and I will not give a full review until much later (Need to sharpen my ears a little more before passing judgment.) So far I think it sounds a cleaner and more spacious than my Macro (even w/o Buf634p). The bass is definately allot cleaner. I have also beleive that Micro has better timbre and presents instrument a bit nicer. The crossfeed is much better, granted that it is headroom's bread and butter feature. The build quality is simply out of this world. The Macro does low bass tracks (synthesised basses) better and like the bass boost that it offers. These are just (unorganised) impressions; I am going to have to experience the amp for a bit longer and wear off my "new toy excitment" before passing judgement.
I also got my Sony V6 today and will comment on those after some time.
The headroom product is very profesionally built and souds amazing.
