I was, but there's a bit more to it than meets the eye. In my native language, if you say "What's the XY?" in this context, it may also mean "Who cares about the XY (now)?". I'm not sure whether this overtone translates to English though.
Anyway, looking back on how enthusiastically the
AMP3 thread had started off and how it has died down lately, most folks having given up hope for a usable firmware and some using it solely as an amp, I'm really wondering whether Hisoundaudio will be able to pull off something like that for a second time?
Just look at their
website, the download link for the AMP3, you get a manual that's all. No firmware history, release notes or files, nothing. Go to the ROCOO or Studio downloads and you get ... the same AMP3 manual, again.
Now, I'm not a person who gets a kick out of complaining about this and that, but IMO these are fundamental things in customer support you have to get right. They do not even take much time, just a bit of effort and basic organizing skills. I appreciate how Craig is constantly surpassing himself to make up for it, but he himself depends on the manufacturer in the end.
I honestly hope that these shiny new toys will not turn out to be groundhog day all over again, but as it stands I wouldn't bet my shirt on it.
