    Looks like you'd need two, but still cheaper than an Isobox.

    Marv will probably have an update when he gets back from his trip, let's all just chill until then. We don't want this thread to end up like the HF BHSE thread.

    Yes,
    I'd rather they take their time and get it right. Lot of preparation goes into this. Meanwhile I got lucky and scooped up a used liquid carbon to keep me occupied. Cheers

    I previously told others to be patient as they were looking for updates, but......any updates? Still on schedule? Is there a tentative delivery date?

    Internal debate over building amb m3 to to hold me over, or maybe I should just be patient and wait for the BW mk2

    They're receiving shipment? Or they're sending them out to customers?

    I already ordered mine last year but a few questions if I may Marv?

    - Any pics available yet?
    - Will it have line outputs like the Zana as well?
    - As far as I understand there will be no options? No balanced like you said in a previous post (since it still says so on the EC site) and no P&G pot either I heard since it doesn't fit.

    Just emailed Craig about schedule and he said it "should start shipping before the end of the month."

    The wait is almost over...

    1. Production house came by with proto-boards (they are 6 weeks late) to go through test procedures with us.
    2. All metal is made and painted.
    3. Silkscreen files have been sent to the silkscreen folks.
    Cross your fingers. Don't want PNP transistors going into NPN transistor holes.
