    This is super useful feedback.

    I'll be ordering a v2+ at some point soon so I can do some UX research on the interface, positioning of ports, etc.

    What exactly does the GO2A sound like, compared to the V2? No one who's ordered it has it yet.

    I would never consider the V2 "in your face". The Creative Sound Blaster G5x is "in your face". The 450 is less "in your face" but still kind of aggressive and up front. The V2 is way back and relaxed.

    The geek line has never been relaxed unless you're using the terrible, smoothed over TCM filter and that's still not that laid back.

    Does anyone know what the price will be like for GOV2A when it becomes available in this month?

    If Marv likes it, it'll be the only product this year outside of the Andromeda so far that all three of us (Christian, Marv and I) have all liked.

    Neither Christian nor I have heard it.

    I suspect this year's lineup based off what's happened so far:

    Andromeda
    Utopia
    ModiBit
    Other schiit
    MAYBE GO2A, but Marv is in love with zx2

    Odd. Well, we must have different experiences and definitions of "laid back" then. I feel the V2 is pretty mellow.

    The new look on GO2A really nice and can't wait to get one.. I ordered GO1000 to use it for the time being until GO2A becomes available to general public other than as GO2V upgrade.

    Christian didn't fancy the Elear. I might not either, I am a HD600/modded HD800 kind of guy. The HD650 isn't my favorite.

    Ah. So you're more of a 4 to 5 kinda guy. Thanks for the reply. Still would be great to have some impressions if you could get hold of a pair.
