If you think it sounds great now give it about 200 hours of burn in , that's when everything really "comes together" so to speak. Speaking of the H5.

I'm beginning to understand this treble roll-off. It's nothing serious though and doesn't take away any of my enjoyment

Does it go away with burn-in?

The bass get's tighter in my opinion after burn in (less colored) alot of the "colorig" goes away actually. Hence the highs clear a bit , more balanced.

As an alternative you could watch the Amplification For Sale / Trade forum for a used one to turn up.
Although at this point I expect they will become:
a) less frequent to appear
b) more highly in demand
c) slightly higher priced

Hi there Newbie here!

Is it still possible to order these?

I've had a good read though the thread and it would appear this is just the baby to park between my mac and hd25's?

Please call me a goon if need be!

Regards

Rob

Hey you ordered one, sweet. Guess this means my New Brunswick headfive isn't as limited edition as it used to be.

 

[jplmk]

Got the amp, shipped on Monday, arrived on Wednesday - that's fast

First impressions - unit is larger than I thought, nice finish and details, light is indeed very bright - too early to say anything sensible about the sound, but quickly comparing with no-amp and the Pro-Ject Headbox (mkII) I had earlier, the improvement is obvious, and on the level I was hoping it to be. Dynamics are noticeably better and the amp (which clearly colors the sound) seems to add substance/body to the sound of MS-1s (which can get overly thin and sharp with certain material). Interesting to see how the sound evolves throughout the run-in.

Props to Jan for an excellent and affordable product, glad that I finally decided to get one.
