Just bite the bullet as well, should be delivered in the next few days along with the rubber base. Man, it better be made out of gold for 149€...

Care to elaborate?Yes go balanced
More power should control the large planar driver of the LCD-2 better: 980mW@32Ω (normal headphone jack) vs 3920mW@32Ω (balanced headphone jack)

+1 Balanced does improve significantly in my experience
Anyone knows where to order the transparent top cover from? The local seller here refuses to sell it as it's only intended for demo purposes..

Myeah, but the regular jack seems to handle the power perfectly fine on high gain. I never need to go beyond 11 o'clock, but I'll give it a shot considering other people recommend it. Sorry about the double post, didn't mean to!

Has anyone got the chance to compare the chord Hugo 2 with CM400i although Hugo 2 cost 3 times.

Hugo 2 is portable and that justifies a big part of the price difference, even if they performed equally.
The Hugo 2 compares better to the CMA600i than the 400i from the listening I did earlier this year.

I am not sure if the clear tops for the 400i are in stock from Questyle. We have been waiting for our clear tops for the 600i to come in for quite some time now (waiting for them to make more at Questyle factory).
still waiting for our 400i's to come in as well. those should be super soon though we were told a few days ago from Bruce.

Really? That's great news! Are you guys in the US? Does that mean units destined for the US will be coming in soon? I hope so it would be nice to get it before Christmas.

Yes to all those questions! We are in the USA- Pittsburgh PA to be exact, and we expect to get our 400i’s in before Christmas. We (MTME) are an authorized dealer for a ton of big name brands including Questlye.
Check out my signature to see our website if you would like. You (and everyone else) are always free to PM me to see what we have in stock or coming in, ect. Our stuff changes so frequently that we don’t always put what we have on the website. I am also here to help with any questions you have.

Hi Craig,
Just saw your review of Clear and it is spot on, I got the chance to compare all 3 at a audio show 2 weeks ago and Utopia is just another level to both very fast and I found the bass on Utopia to be more enjoyable to Clear, Clear indeed have more separation than Elear but not very far off and bass on Elear is better. I have Elear and wanted to check if Clear is a good upgrade and in the end decided to stay with Elear and may be upgrade by LH Labs Geek Pulse Xfi to a better DAC/headphone amp what are your recomendations for a nice headphone amp/dac combo. Thanks

Thanks Craig! I've got my preorder in with my local dealer already. Just waiting on the units to arrive which I'm guessing they will around the same time as you guys.
