They shipped my loaner set to the US, so I can’t image that Canada would be a problem.
It’s a bit of a process though. The direct funds-transfer for the loaner period was the fiddliest part, but otherwise it was smooth if drawn-out. I wound up doing the transfer via Xoom.
There’s a thread for them here.
Thanks for the link and transfer info. I figured there would a thread for them here but hadn’t gotten around to looking for it yet.
The specialty amplifier I mentioned shipped yesterday and, UPS (etc.) willing, will be in my hands on Tuesday.
This is one bit of kit I’m really looking forward to putting through its paces.
Expectations are very high.
I’ve a very good idea of what that might be but let’s keep the “suspense” train going…highly anticipating your impressions and eventually a review on that amp (if my hunch ends up being correct)!
I also think it’s a Darkvoice 336SE but in Chrome
I think I have an idea as well… but could be wrong, I’ll update once it comes in with what I thought it would be =)
Not how it works. Lay down some guesses!
Let’s not spoil the suspense train from rolling…
I agree. Throw down your guesses.
Everything I read this thread I get David Gray’s - Sail Away song in my head. Has a deep bass thump, good headphone song.
I think it will be something to do with my favorite non-headphone, headphone? But, that is just a guess…
@BuffaloWing I used to love David Gray! now I’m off to listen to my favorite David Gray albums lol
Same here…an amp to drive a headphone with near-field speaker like presentation…
This thread actually reminded me of a classic Sailing by Christopher Cross.
How good!
Sail Away thump is addictive on the Verite.

David Gray Sail Away + LCD-4 + the Pendent ( High Z) + Qutest = pure joy
Also enjoy Dave Matthews Band - Crash into Me.
Gets messy toward the end, really good!
I remember seeing Dave Matthews at Red Rocks Love Crash into Me
LOL, that narrows it down.
Are y’all suggesting that you’re speculating that the “specialty amp” I’ve mentioned is for the RAAL-requisite SR1a?
Maybe.
We’ll see … as whatever it is, it’s still on track to arrive on Tuesday (04/07).
In the mean time, the Chord 2go/Hugo 2 is proving to be MOST capable (in a Darth Vader … “Impressive … MOST impressive!” vein).
No, it’s not on the same level as the Hugo TT2 or DAVE, let alone when they are fed from an M-Scaler, but even so it is quite remarkable. And the 2go/Hugo 2 combination is about the same size as JUST the PSUs for the HMS/Hugo TT2 …
Her/His Majesty’s Ship?
