Interested to know how long it takes Schiit to sell this out.

Not only am I a sissy Scandinavian bad actually a sissy Swede :)

I know I'll end up with one anyway but it will take much longer and cost the double....


For once I actually didn't really care about the duties and shipping. It's cheap enough for it to not bankrupt me. It'll soon be in Skåneland :)

  Vali ordered, and I live one shipping day away.   If they ship today, I will receive it tomorrow.

I wonder if the first orders will ship today? I ordered one this morning and I am one day away too via FedEx Home.
 
The website says orders placed now will ship in 3-7 days even though they are "in-stock". 
 
Maybe Jason can let us know if anything will actually ship today...

Gonna be using the vali to power the hd600 and hd800. Somehow I think the vali might just be better than the balanced headphone out on the NFB-10es2, based on some impressions that i've read on the other side of the internet xD

Will the vali be able to drive the DT880 premium 600's, that's the answer I wanna know, as it looks interesting.

  Can't wait to read everyone's impressions! I'll probably pick one up next month.

 
If there are any left! I heard the hype train is gonna take most of these units

Anyway, seems as if I'm boarding as well. I ordered mine within the first 30 minutes, so hopefully mine arrives by this weekend for me to post some impressions. I have on hand Q701, K702 anniversary edition, HE500, SA5000, Mad Dogs and dare I say D7000. 
 
I'll compare against the M-stage and emotiva A-100.

  Well I got one as well. I've been pondering tubes for some time, but living in Europe the Bottlehead crack is like 4-5 times more expensive than the Schiit Vali. In the best of worlds I'll have by the end of the week.

 
I was thinking if I really like it, it will be my launching pad to something like Project Ember.

While Finland isn't technically a part of Scandinavia, us Nordic folk need to stick together! I feel a terrible need to order the Vali + Modi, someone please convince me not to. My fiance will kill me :D

I've ordered the Vali, as well.  My gear is in my sig.  I'm looking forward to comparing the Vali to my Speedballed Crack (it also has an upgraded Alps volume pot, a PS bypass cap & output cap (film) upgrades).

I saw the hype train coming down the tracks fast, so I jumped on board and ordered. Even if the Vali's not to my liking (also considering the new iFi Nano iCAN amp), the modest 15% restocking fee is a simple way to test the waters.
 
Having owned a Lyr with NOS Amperex tubes before and enjoyed the sound, the little Vali might be find a permanent home on the shelf however.
 
 
ALL ABOARD THE HYPE TRAIN!
