Rockhopper M^3 - The Review

Thumbs up for AD843 combo with Grado RS1.. the previous choice of OPA227 was a little too harsh in the highs but the 843's tame them quite well.

Quite a powerfull little combo this thing.. I'm liking it.

YBM and MisterX may still make them. Beats me why nobody is trying harder to sell these to people, it's a great design.

I can personally speak for MisterX's work. He's done a facinating job on my M^3 + S11 combo.

Heh, the problem is I live in Asia. I wonder if either of MisterX or YBM will be willing to ship it internationally? Also, what's the average lead time for orders to be built, 1 month?

M^3 + S11 is really tempting but availability is a b****, perhaps researching alternative options would make sense. I wonder how it stacks against the Audio-gd C2C Mk II?

@teNtiOn:
I just sold my tube amp and waiting for another so I can't compare it to any other amps but I think it still sounds great. Many people complain that AD2000s lack bass but M^3 gives plenty of bass that does justice to trance and what not.

@K3cT:
Why not try sending him an email asking about shipping to overseas and estimated costs? Marshall is very pleasant to talk to and he'll answer whatever questions you might have.

I know about what it'd cost to ship something like that internationally, if it were me...about $40. Not so bad. I'm sure he'd do it, I mean why the hell not.

YBM has posted internationally in the past. I know the guy from New Zealand who bought one of the B22's featured in YBM's gallery.
