Then again I also like the way this thread updates regularly and dividing the threads might stifle creativity and spontaneous idea posting.

"That" seller is Lawrence... If you require the usb to optical converter, that is your best buy. Otherwise, get the vanilla version and upgrade the OPAMP's yourself.
EDIT: apparently he is not

It would seem to be so much more convenient to buy from this selller, who includes the USB to Optical converter and an upgraded opamp. I don't want to regret getting the less upgraded version in the future, though, so maybe I should go with Lawrence... Bah, I don't know what to do. Help?

Really? Because I asked the exact same thing within the last two pages and was specifically told that seller is not the famous Lawrence. Maybe Lawrence is part of that business but messages from that seller on eBay are signed 'wang shu zeng'

The above quoted info is accurate.
FWIW, the other guy wsz0304 has a good rep too, tho.

Yea I've got no problem just getting the basic opamp upgrade. You still have to pay additioanl for the volume pot and HDAMs...and getting them right off the bat means no fun tweaks later

Well I think I'll be ordering from wsz0304 tonight or tomorrow. How long does the shipping usually take for the Zero? I've heard that it's around 10 days.

HAHA! You should have seen (AND smelt!) my spare pre-amp the other night when a PS diode was put back the wrong way!
Oh I followed the instructions all, but the silkscreening was wrong for that particular diode and when you do something like that when you're tired ..... POOOFF! Heh heh.
So, the other thread is for the ****-ups, eh?
