I will wait for a demo unit for other countries first. Curious about this one, it's been getting rave reviews everywhere.

Hmmm this is interesting, I'd sign up for this but I don't really have anything to compared it to

Would you like to try it anyway? What headphones are you using at the moment?

I wouldn't mind experiencing the whole tube magic thing, currently on my first pair of decent headphones (Ultrasone Pro550/DJ1 Pro), they probably won't improve much with an amp but I suppose I can check out what kind of so called magical coloration a tube can add to my headphones

Ooh, I wanna try these with some vintage orthos and DT48, along with the rest of my headphones. I'll probably have a new one--probably the Sony Z1000--by the time I get the loaner too. (Plus I want to write a Headfonics article on it) I'm in Illinois, USA
 
Mochan's in the Philippines.

Now, some suggestions...
1. You can keep it for up to a week, but if you're done with it do pass it on to the next guy =)
2. We may require a deposit, it's not a cheap thing afterall
3. We'd love to know what you think! Either privately or on the forums, up to you!
 



Ugh.. I hope the deposit isn't to much! As a college student I rarely have much money....I hope the deposit doesn't force less-financially endowed ones away from the loaning program....

I agree, I can see why they would want to do it though. Maybe they will do this depending on how long the user has been on headfi,post counts etc? I've had a loaner unit before, just recently the HIFIMAN RE 272 I hope that's good enough to let me test out this amp without a deposit, I too am a poor student. So at the very least I hope its not a full price deposit.

Of course, I do realize their concern, that someone might just disappear from head-fi after receiving their loaner unit. Afterall it is an expensive unit. I think your idea is very usable. Check the amount of time the user has been on head-fi.  Or maybe even seller-feedback, although the latter, again, may exclude those less wealthy ones...
