Has it ever been determined if the 207 and 307 use the same driver?

Yeah, that tells you what the plate should be made of, but Justin is still correct when he says there's no HV specs for the plate.

it's a blank plate and then the holes are added.  i would guess that behind it are pins mounted onto a circuit board, and the plate is just a cover.  could work fine but it's mystery plastic from China and the high voltage specifications for it are not published.

 
 
Thanks a lot for the help guys! Guess I'll be sticking with teflon and do some creative milling on the front plate.

I just love the idea of using just any plastic for a high voltage connector.  Almost as stupid as using anything died black for high voltage.

Not applicable. Those are actual connectors, whereas the specs that matter are for the material that is being used as a cover. Neutrik doesn't provide that since it's not designed as a HV interface material.

I guess it makes as much sense as having a headphone amp where the headphone connectors are on the back

What's wrong with that? They are not the only manufacturer to do this. But it's most likely due to so many things cramped into such a small enclosure with no headroom at the front.

What other amps do that? To me it doesn't seem ergonomic.at all.

Wow.  That site doesn't translate well.  So Kuboten is just the auction site right?  Who did you actually purchase from?

imvho it's extremely annoying and inconvenient unless you only use upto 2 pairs of headphones and leave them plugged in

@singh: Considering my experience with Craig/kuboten, he'd usually answer my emails very quickly, frequently within the hour. BUT there were times when he was busy. Overall I found him reliable (i.e. didnt run away with my goods and money)
 
@coredump: if you google you'd discover kuboten acts as a proxy for buying items on yahoo auctions japan
