Thank you for sharing this with us all. Gino and the whole family are amazing people, with incredible audio products.

Thanks for sharing this... I have their new J2 with AKM4499EX set running balanced with 2 SparkosLabs SS2590 dual Pro opamps. I literal said, the only thing that could top this DAC is a dual AKM4499EX and AKM4191EQ with separate power supplies and SparkosLabs SS2590's and here you go! Thanks Geno! I gather "This" is what you were hinting at.... Cool beans!

The sound from the DACs and headphone amps are sublime. Much better than higher priced (usually more forward) equipment at shows.

For sure. Legit some of the best stuff and it’s actually realistic for most people.

Mad man you got same name as me even surname

I’m looking forward to learning more about the integrated.

I’m really impressed with the looks of these. I can’t wait to hear how they sound in person

They were superb. I may even be tempted to go as far as to say that they might be all you need for most systems.

Love it. King live spectrum analyzers. I want one

Product looks fantastic very excited about the dac and amp! What kind of speakers were used in the demo?

Very nice!

Yeah buddy! I have no doubt it could drive both of our systems really well too.

We enjoyed these as well, and are in talks to partner with them for future shows.

Heck yeah! A perfect partnership if you ask me!

Looks like really nice stuff. And not to get all ethnocentric, its nice to see some natively built gear besides Schiit. Also, random suggestion interject more random B roll into the video during static interviews like this. It would keep the video interesting from a purely visual aspect help hold the viewers attention.

but what's the price?

Ballpark $2k.

Would have been nice to see a Hypex or ICEpower D class amp instead an AB amp.

I somewhat agree but AB ain’t dead yet. Knowing Geshelli this should test well.

@lukerestlessstudios I agree AB is not dead yet but to go up against Schiit & Emotiva and others in the already large AB class world I don't think they will succeed but if they offered a good Hypex or ICEpower they would have a great offering. I owned many great AB amps but none are as good as my VTV Hypex at $700.

@@991carreras3 I feel you. That said I think this thing claps Emotiva, who personally I’ve never been that impressed by to tell you the truth. Also there are some out there who just want AB whatever their reasoning or lack thereof.

No, class d still sucks. However plenty of fools think it's the new thing so must be great

@@991carreras3 I am going to take your advice and try the VTV Hypex and find out by myself. Do you get the CAJONES on the bass like the old Adcom 555 ???

Fancy metal work on the top but cheapo name stenciling on the front. Design question. I hate the painted label on front.

Nice that the zoofa is class ab

Agreed. As much as I like the new GaN based stuff and how accurate they are, there is still something to be said about a classic design for those of us looking for it. Plus the Zoofa was clean as heck anyway as far as I could tell.
