This is not the only choice so one's MMV.

I personally think this is a great colour combination and is a nice change from all the black and silver units we see day in and day out.

This is great -- the ever-evolving art and craft of our providers keeps steadily advancing the level of SQ and personal enjoyment of our obsession -- I mean hobby.

And the speed with which this thread is growing is a pretty good indication of the interest and support for this new entry.

What are all the case and LED color options?

 

[calcajun]

I think i might go buy a brown Zune just so they match!
Maybe take a picture then return it.
Cause i already have an iriver H120.

By the way, the AE-2 would look very tiny next to a Zune but then it is quite small anyway.

" confirm that the RCA jacks act as a loop out for the mini jack and vice versa? "

Ummm, tell me how it is suppose to work and i will try it later when i get home again.

Ah, well if you put rca cables from your source into the rca jacks of your AE-2, those AE-2 jacks serve as an input and bingo you get sound out of your headphone out. But if instead you take an rca to mini cable from your source and feed it into the mini input jack of your AE-2, the rca jacks of the AE-2 are now loop outputs. to test this, put any source into the mini input jacks of your AE2, then thread a cable from your AE2 rca jacks to an amp/receiver and see what happens. if you get sound, BINGO the loop out works!

there was a preorder??

OP, congrats on the amp. I love Headamp's build quality.

 

[calcajun]

I think there were 4 choices but don't recall so don't take this as official.
I THINK there is
Black, gold, silver and copper. I could be wrong on one. certainly not the copper.
Led was red, green or yellow.

This is not official info, i think these were my color options.

 

[Kees]

Any comments on the sound....?

Please???

 

[calcajun]

Yes, both front and rear inputs work.

 

[calcajun]

Here is my Iriver H120 optical out to optical in Headroom Micro Dac analog out to AE-2.

 

[Romanee]

Nice pics! Even though the initial post pics are great, these seem to show the beautiful coppery finish much better. A very rich look.

Hey! It matches my Il Laboratorio del Gelato chocolate gelato avatar (…when I use it, of course…).

As I understand it, Justin's been taking orders for the AE-2 ever since he stopped production on the AE-1 - all you had to do was order an AE-1 from him and then he'd ship out the AE-2 instead, when it was done.

Glad to see it's finally here. Looks very nice!

 

[GreatDane]

I like the choco look. What about that blue anodized one pictured in a thread not long ago(can't find it). I think Justin commented in that thread about maybe producing those custom jobs.
