My little room work in progress.
It's not done, I apologize for the mess. Health issues have put this on hold. It's a small room and I'm likely to sell off my KEF 104.2 loudspeakers and some other gear after surrendering the living room to my wife after her patience of 35 years. She deserved her own little sanctuary.

New addition to the stable.
I made the decision to take advantage of the $600. price on the HiFiMan Arya Stealth, here pictured with the Meze 109 Pro. I think 2025 is going to be a really uneventful year so far as new purchases. I've also upgraded my Fiio BTR7 to the newly released BTR17 and I purchased the Earmen stack which consists of Amplifier, Linear PS, DAC & Streamer.

Drop x Campfire Audio Darkstar Review
The Darkstar definitely has a a unique sound that has an audiophile sub-bass bias. It is a balanced sound with open sounding mids and well extended treble. There is no mid-bass bloat thanks to...

BMR2 discounts for BMR1 owners
How about providing a BMR2 discount for BMR1 owners? Most of the "improvements" in the next gen should really have been there in the first which was a pretty big disappointment for most of us. UPDATE: 40% discount offered. That's great, I'm in. Thank you DROP.

There is a bit of confusion in regards to to the batches. Basically there was a slight disconnect initially between our batch 1 and the vendors batch 1. This was in name only and these were shipped per Danny's updates.
Batch 1 only consists of 2 units while batch 2 is nearly 40 units. As you can see there is only a 4 business day difference between the two batches shipment. Also UE has said that they are making great progress and these might be shipped slightly earlier than expected!
Sorry for any possible miscommunication.

It also means that for the majority of the Massdrop first batch, they'll have spent 17 business days on them...
Here's a timeline of what was promised and then what actually transpired. ___________________________________________________________
1) The first batch will be sent on 12/16/2014.
2) Massdrop states UE has "an impressive turnaround time of less than a week."
3) Communication breakdown--the UE lab will be closed from 12/20/2014 to 1/4/2015.
4) Update after learning there will be a significant delay--UE has this drop as their highest priority. Hope to deliver finished product back to customers NO LATER than mid-January.
5) On 1/6/2015, Massdrop receives UERM's for the three customers who had their ear impressions taken at UE's Irvine office (let's call this batch #0), but delayed shipping them to customers until 1/12/2015 because they did not have adequate shipping boxes on hand.
6) What was originally sent by Massdrop to UE as the "first batch" from step (1) was somehow disconnected into 2 batches (noted by Hassan as Batch #1 and Batch #2, which is what I will use to refer to them going forward).
7) In reality, as confirmed by Hassan, Batch #1 only contains 2 units. Batch #2 contains 40 units.
8) UE will ship out Batch #1 to Massdrop by 1/21. Massdrop will ship to customers on the same day.
9) UE will ship out Batch #2 to Massdrop by 1/27. Massdrop will ship to customers on the same day. ___________________________________________________________
The following is what I have issues with:
A) Why was it not communicated between Massdrop and UE--and then to customers--from the start that UE would be closing shop between 12/20/14 and 1/4/15? Why was this only found out AFTER the drop had ended?
B) Why it took close to a week for Massdrop to acquire appropriate boxes to ship units from batch #0.
C) How "an impressive turnaround time of less than a week" turned into a turnaround time of approximately 20 days assuming UE received the first round of units sometime around 1/8/2015 (this is with regards to Batch #2 as the majority of units are included in this batch). What happened to getting the final products to customers NO LATER than mid-January?
D) Why countless customer inquiries were ignored by both Massdrop AND UE for over a week. Not until just a few hours ago did Massdrop finally open up and provide a meaningful update.
I've been throwing a lot of business at MD in the last several months. Disappointing.
