We added 5 more KING pairs!

Check out the comments section for spec information (from Desktop Maraschino).

Please help us spread the word!  Thanks.

We're over 60% now, but with only 18 days left, we're trying for a push before the weekend. We want to get the number of backers way up for increased visibility.  Even the smallest contribution counts, plus we have super high performance amp PAIRS at only $750, power cords included....

Your page looked as though it were tired of the $11k level, so I pushed it into the $12k level. It seems much happier now.  :wink: I'm looking forward to an XLarge T-shirt. The kickstart pledge system did not allow for a size choice.

Best of luck!

With 15 days to go it's gonna be a close call if the donating slows down. For those seeking new amps, i can only recommend ordering these in-line amps.
Don't be put off by their small size, bigger don't go hand in hand with better, they come with a separate power supply. that's also why they can be so small.
I have the Maraschino Cherry's and not only professional reviewers but users like me are very happy with these, and the superb sound they produce!

Get this back on track people!

With only 13 days left and a little over 70% funded, we are calling for your help to give us that extra push. Timing is everything, so with the Labor Day weekend approaching in the states and back-to-school in full swing, we ask that social media and word of mouth be used to get those "hedging backers" to pull the trigger.  Once again, we thank you for your kind support.

One more thing.....  If there are lingering unanswered questions, we ask that you let us know. We would also like to start filling in the FAQ this week, so feel free to add questions there.  The project owner isn't allowed to add questions.

Have a great day :)

Oops.....  Looks like we CAN add FAQ on Kickstarter!  It seems to only work with the non-mobile version of the site.  Still, feel free to let us know if you'd like to add a question, or simply try posting it.  Thanks.

One obvious thing mentioned on the campaign page, but unaddressed, is the speaker cables.

Also, an option to upgrade the prototype 48V to a 60V supply?

Speaker cables: We decided to include two pairs of 4" Hanging Maraschino Dual Locking Banaba cables for $100 more (see Kickstarter comments section).

Upgrade to 60V supply: We plan to offer an upgrade path after the campaign.

Thanks for your kind post.

Just finished looking at your Kickstarter.
Looks great!
Good demo video.
Loved your kids being involved!
Glad to see that you have almost reached the goal.
What happens when you exceed it??!!
By the way, would have liked the picture to have expanded when I clicked on it (just to get a better view of those units).
Not far to go now.
Once again a great presentation.
And the incentives are good too!!
All the best.
Bruce

Bruce,

Thanks for the compliments and support.

We are considering "stretch goals" for our final week.  Being a first-timer on Kickstarter, we are not sure if the things we would like to add fit their policy, so we'll keep you posted in the comments section.  We plan to add several things there during the next few days.

Here are some In-Line Maraschino photos......






Best Regards,
Tommy O

Keep in mind the production units won't have those screws on top. Instead, the surface will be clean. Here's a photo of the desktop Maraschino with the new "screw less" case:

Well since I already have a pr of Maraschinos w/ a single 60V supply, I figured I'd at least pick up a T-shirt!

I do want a second 60V supply because..well...because I want one.

Good luck w/ the time left.

To be honest I hadn't looked at the KS campaign until a few days ago and I had no idea they Hangers were going for so little  :thumb:

T-  I've been talking to my dad and were gonna try my pair on his Revel Salon 2's one of these days - Should be interesting...

As we enter our last day of this campaign, we cannot say enough to express our gratitude to our backers!

For the last day only, we added a "procrastinator's special" 60V Desktop Maraschino reward at $2750 (regularly $3800).

I don't check AC that often, so I missed this, or I would've been sure to throw some cash your way. Glad you made it!
