Jan, so you're balancing your life instead of balancing your amps. That could be the most balanced decision of all. 

 
Still loving the Stepdance. I look forward to seeing what is coming down the pipe.

Wish you all the best in your future endeavours. I truly enjoyed your Concerto and Stagedac combo.

 

[chowyeung]

wow... New portable amp is coming!
 

 

[Armaegis]

Hmm, and here I was hoping he'd call it the Quickstep!

Good suggestion.
 
Maybe for the next amp!!

Can I claim royalties?

It looks like Jan has successfully shaved several milimetres off the 2Stepdance which, combined with flat surfaces, will make it quite a bit more portable in a stack. The front gain switch is really nice. I wonder if anything else has changed?

Hi Jan - whatever products you make, we buy them. 
Take your time and enjoy life. You certainly contribute to our life's enjoyment! 

 

[beaner]

Jan, I have several of your products and to have something personally designed and manufactured that I use every day in today's society is amazing.
 
Whatever you decide to do, I'm sure you'll have the support of everyone here. (Both financial and moral hah!)

I look forward to seeing what you come up with! I really like the design of your amps and even the newer ones with very simple cases for maximum performance for the money have a look that I think works. They all feel like quality products.

My first desktop amp was a Corda Opera.  It was a great amp and really took me from a portable system to a nice home system.  While I had it I really enjoyed it.  Jan was also extremely kind, and not really knowing me other than being a member of the Head-Fi community allowed me to make payments on the amp even after shipping it out.  Meier products do provide an excellent value for dollar and were really at the forefront of headphone amplification.  Without Jan, this niche market wouldn't have gotten the boost it needed until probably much later.
 
Best wishes!

I've got some kind of portable made by Meier that I have had for 3-4 years.  Works great (I think), with my computer at work.   I have been assuming the USB input is digital. Correct?  

 

[Armaegis]

Yes, usb is a digital interface, sending data to the portable's dac.

Thanks for all the hard job Jan, we really appreciate your efforts to make our ears listen real music thru your amps.
