"at the RMAF, the PRO13, were wired in a balanced configuration & driven by the Apache balanced headphone amp"

That setup was in my top 3 systems at RMAF this year. WOW what great sound.

The first prototype chassis has arrived, it fits like a glove to the PC brd. Look at the face plate, note how well it is designed with absolute porfection specially around the balanced connector. Also for the first time you are looking at the production pc brd. Enjoy the pictures.

Happy New Year to all.

looking good ray.
sooo how long till we see a prototype with an intergrated DAC

So Ray, looking at the prototype pics, it seems that unlike the Shadow, both the input and the headphone balanced output are on the same side of the amp, am I correct in this assumption?

Nice, BTW.

Very impressive! Also, the size of the Protector will be the same as the Predator chassis, correct? That is an EXCELLENT portable solution.
Also a very neat and balanced board design. I like that!

Hey Buddy...
Happy New Year to you & yours, first.
The Input is in the back of the amp, see the pictures on the first post.
The other connector on the front panel is 3.5mm for single ended headphones.

Very cool. It's about time someone finally did it. Congrats, Ray! Will you be bringing one to the Orange County meet on the 30th of this month? We'd really love to hear it, if you can bring an adapter for dual 3-pin XLR to whatever connector you are using.

Also, does this amp have dual power supplies?

 

[jc9394]

Ray, are you intend to sell the amp with balanced cable for JH13?

There will be one at the meet. But don't have the adaptor for other headphones, so it will be used with the IEMs cable that I have to drive all the custom IEMs that will be there.

I really don't want to get into that kind of business yet as I am bussy with my own stuff. As mentioned before that Whiplash Audio will be making the cables for this amp as I have 1000 connectors on their way, NOW, so I will make them available to who ever want to make the wire. I have talked personally with both Jerry Harvey, JH Audio, & Doug, from Westorn, both seemed to be willing to be making the cable with this connector that I will supply. Did not have the time to talk to Ultimate ears but had the chance to mention it to one of their workers.
Cheers.

Really nice Ray !

 

[Kon-Masti]

Why might someone buy/wait for this as opposed to the Shadow? or vice versa as the case may be.
