SXPro is a great outfit, I bought mine from there.
Absolutely, they were so helpful and pleasant. Like they actually care about customer service. I ordered mine this morning and it will be here tomorrow morning. All for $170 less than retail here.
Mine came with a euro power plug. I didn't know there were different variations. Had to get an American plug from best buy.

Seem’s like that is the word that is going around.
This DAC/Amp seems to be a steal for the performance/$ ratio
Can’t wait to get it!

Eww, they raised the price of this by $100 at Sweetwater. Was gonna order one there and do interest free payments.
Looks like it's back ordered til August.

I've been talking to the Zen Audio Pro folks since I ordered it last month.
Last week he mentioned that RME raised the prices for all retailers, so it goes up $100 no matter where you order it.
Seems like guitar center is still the last holdout to get it for the previous $999 price. After a couple more through guitar center though, I imagine even they will adjust to the new price.

Zen Audio Pro was supposed to have received my order from Asia yesterday. Just called this morning and they haven't received it yet. GRRRRRRRRRRRRR.
Then again, Guitar Center has pushed back estimated delivery for back order to July 13th. So I guess the RME ADI-2 is very popular. It occurs to me that Chord generally bumps their products up by a couple of hundred dollars at regular intervals (guess for each production run), so maybe RME is doing the same.

I suppose $100 isn't a big deal, but I'm glad I got mine sooner than later. Still enjoying it a lot as an all in one. Glad this came along and canceled my never ending upgrade/sidegrade plans.

Agreed, especially considering the jumps the h2 made over the pas year, a $100 hike isn’t too bad.
Still, glad i made the $999 mark in time.
I missed the $1995 mark for the h2, but got the $2195 order in before the jump to $2395 and now it’s $2695. Yikes.

Why? What was unsatisfactory about it?
