Well, if there's some kind of Swiss/Austrian meet-up, then we can exchange and find out.
It would be a great idea!

The BX2 Pro has landed by Johnny. The material for the power supply, too. Pictures of the chassis come tomorrow.

I expect a delivery of both devices within 2 weeks. Johnny is the man.

First pictures:

The BX2 Pro and the power supply are ready and will be delivered next week. Johnny is now proceeding to testing and burn-in.

Power supply: According to Johnny (Romi), the supply is Class A design with Vintage Denon caps, transistor regulator, ultra linear and low noise. OFC O type toroidal transformer.

As you can see below, the case for the power supply is not the shiny one I was expecting. It is not possible to get it at the moment. After a first moment of disappointment, I got over it, as the internal design and components quality have priority.

A few pictures sent by Johnny yesterday night:

BX2Pro in da house. Take everything you like from the BX2+ and add an improved built quality, a completely new take on how a perfect volume knob has to be (going from 0 to infinity without any noticeable increment), without any channel imbalance at very low volume. Romi has come a very long way… the BX2Pro is a real upgrade over the the BX2+ and worth the investment imo. More in-depth impressions over the upcoming weekend.

…still, the monster bespoke PSU is in disguise to elevate the audio performance to new heights, yet ruining the portability factor.

The case is generic. It’s not an USB DAC, the PSU has been built inside of it.

Very curious about impressions with the PSU equipped. I'm split between the BX-2 PRO + PSU and MASS-Kobo 475.

Hi everyone! I would to seek your advice regarding a great pair for this amp. I've had this for about 2 years now in which I pair it with my FIIO M11 via 3.5mm LO. While the sound with the stack is good, I am wondering what would be a good pair for a transportable stack with this amp. I have no plans in replacing this cause I find this to be transparent of source. I thought of pairing it with a FIIO M17 or M15S although the former might be redundant power wise. Maybe a warm sounding DAP since the M11 paired to this I find to be a bit bright. I greatly appreciate any suggestion or advice. Cheers.

The standalone BX2 Pro, without PSU, has a battery life of ca. 7-8 hours.

Impressive. The Susvara is driven adequately with ample headroom.

Nice, another BX2Pro owner, welcome to the club! What gain set to drive the Susvara? Mid or high?
