I would like to add that I feel your loss - my father passed away Dec 2007 and I thought I was getting over it until his birthday on April 2nd.

Thanks Larry!, I tried to do a nice review again. I am glad that you liked it.

And sorry to hear about your loss. I know that it's quite hard. I get sad sometimes, but I try to avoid feeling like that. His birthday was going to be on April 11th...

Hi, my amp does come with that message in the cover. However, I heard that the latest models don't come with that. You should ask Fang about that matter.

Thanks, I am surely enjoying it. Altough I don't have much time for that right now, University tests are drawing near

Thanks to all of you guys for all the kind words regarding my father's death, it's greatly appreciated. I am also glad that you are liking the review

You can request for a plain perspex top cover (w/o the etched message) when you place your order with Head-direct.

No, it's a plain plexiglass cover since they updated it with the socketed OPAMP.

An excellent review - nice job!

Thanks for such a great review (so much that I'm thinking about buying one!) and my condolences on your loss.

I am glad that you liked the review.

I am happy that Head-Direct is carrying the amp for the lowered price right now, otherwise, I might have never been able to get one soon

Thanks for the congratulations Skylab; it makes me really happy to see that both you and HeadphoneAddict liked it, because I think that both of you are incredible reviewers

After some further testing with different headphones (Yuin PK1's), I could notice the slight channel imbalance at lower volumes (around 7-8 o' clock) that some people are talking about. After turning the volume up a bit, it becomes balanced. I could only notice this with the PK1's though

I still can't hear the noise from the active volume control nor from regulating the volume knob
