Hey, what would you think of me using my Asgard 2 as the pre-amp into the Taboo?  Do I even need to?
 
Or did I ask that already? Geez getting old sucks...

Dude, you and I both.  I look forward to spending time with it everyday.  I have a new rectifier coming Tuesday.  I'm sending my headphone cable to have it re-terminated (balanced).  All for my baby 

 
I love it so much I'm considering getting back on the waiting list for a ZP3.

There's a ZP3 on eBay right now (along with a Mini Torii and a Torii Mk3).

I should note that the prices are relatively high for the Buy it Now, but there the option to make an offer.

Interesting.  Good luck to the seller.  I'll go for a  new model with the full warranty.

Drum roll. And a good excuse for me to press F5 (for the first time in 3 days!!!)
 
Later edit: GRATS!

I love my MK3 as well!!! I am finding myself using it with my crappy Polk Audio speakers a whole lot. This is sooooo soooo much more than just a great headphone amp. Makes me anxious to get some great speakers to pair with it. The HD800s seem to like the Taboo pretty well. I am glad also I have the CSP to give me even more options.

I really wish I had some more tube experience to know what to do there. I will probably just do a whole lot of experimenting at some point. It sounds so good as it is, I have a hard time believing it could be a whole lot better.

I haven't even thought of the Mad Dogs in a while, so they will probably not be on my purchase list for a while now. The speakers will have to come next.

I can't tell you guys how happy I am to be a part of this great forum and to be a Decware owner. It is a joy that very few people are able to experience. I tried to get on the AVS forum to discuss the Tekton Pendragons and promptly got run off by a bunch of audio snobs who have never even heard the speakers they are trashing. They even trash the reviewers that have talked nicely of the speakers. The people here seem to be way more constructive.

Shipped! Or at least they have billed me and I'm off the list.
 
Do they provide tracking information? I have not received any.
 
Edit: NM I jumped the gun, they just sent me tracking information.
