That's really cool that he gave you a discount, nice to see companies that care about customers.

Pretty generous fellow. It's actually 4 guys with other jobs who make DAC's as a second 'labor of love,' type endeavor.

He actually shipped the DAC yesterday ... before I'd even payed him for it.

I've had to wait for some gay paypal credit card verification process to complete (took like three days) since the amount was over my non-verified limit.

He went ahead and shipped anyway.

I should have asked if I could get the Havana for the same price and then make payments to cover the remained; I'm sure he'd have done it. The Havana is an OPAMPless, reference DAC from the same company ... goes for 900+ rather than the Paradisea's 600 bucks.

Oh well ... maybe he'll mail me one to demo a bit later.

I have had my HD 280 Pro headphones now for almost 3 years, and they are still going strong.
