1 more report of shipping on Xin's forum.
Looks like he is actually active building still.

I got shipping information from Dr.Xin.
I don't know the content of the package whether upgraded Macro4(send to Dr.Xin at Jun.2) or Reference(orderd at Sep.9) or both of them.


Maybe this means he cleared his back log up to June?
Either that, or he is drawing orders at random from a big hat.

I hope he is building. I can't remember if I sent my upgrades in June or July. I just know that I'm still waiting....

You wish...
No mail for me, I'm still waiting.
I'm glad I have a tomahawk, it helps a lot.

Yes, I meant when someone else who can build and ship an amp with similar SQ and size in a more reasonable time frame I'll buy from him... or if xin shortens his when he finds the time

In addition to providing Beta versions and pics with 22,000uf and 12,000uf, he has actually "Stated": 15,000uf

So, three options.

And NOBODY really knows what to expect to get.

The 15,000uf was a very early Reference. It is the 22 and 12 that have been used for the past 1/2 year or so. Either version sounds good with the 22 taking a little longer to burn in.

I got back my SuperMacro IV today after a long absence. I forgot what a great amp this really is. Is it now much better than before? It is better, but my memory isn't good enough to say how great the difference is. My current opamp setup is OPA128SM with HA5002 buffers, AD8599 in 3 and 2xBUF634 Hi-C in 4. With the Ultimate Ears UE-10 and an imod this is a killer portable rig.

I haven't listened much to my UE-10s in recent months, and I thought that I'd lost my taste for them. With the SMIV back, I'm going to spend a lot more time with the UE-10's.

Another thing I really like about the SMIV is that it's a tinkerer's joy. It's easy to swap opamps, and there is still a little bit of room in there for a couple of BlackGates. (Maybe I'll try to solder them back in there this weekend.)

In case anyone is interested, I got my micro and mini back today which I had sent in for repair and upgrades in early March.
