Watched the video yesterday. I really like the Verum 1s and was picking up the phone to call and get on a Verum 2 list when the video got to the point about the Kicstarter program so I went to Kickstarter and backed a Verum 2 kit.
At $369, the Verum 1 comes very close to the HiFi Man Arya V2 which sold for $1,600. From what Danny had to say, the Verum 2 surpasses the 1 by quite a bit. That would put thie performance above the Arya V2 but at 1/3 the price once they go into production. Through the Kickatrter program, the Verum 2 with just a single ended cable like the V1 shipped with is $349. However, the Kikstarter program ends May 31 so if you are interested, jump quickly.
