Some slight production delay, a limited number of silver Icon Mobile will be shipping to distributors on Nov 21.
We will have about 100 on sale on the online store starting Nov 25.
More will be available in December so just in time for holiday gifts.



Accessories include:
One very short 3.5mm stereo cable for connecting Icon Mobile to your iPod or other music players
One USB cable
One translucent silicone band for tying Icon Mobile to your player


Cool huh? We thought of everything.

For the iPod users, we are coming out with a cool and very unique Nuforce designed accessory kit.

Just got my shipping confirmation!  :hyper:

I will of course share my impressions. I am most interested to compare the headphone output with that of the Icon amp.

I just got my Icon Mobile tonight.  I plugged my Sansa Fuse into it and listened to my ATH-ESW10JPN before even charging it for a couple of minutes.  I am very impressed already.  I will listen more after a full charge. 

Nuforce has done another great job again with your new equipment for the proletariat.

Just placed my order for the Nuforce Icon Mobile after reading lots of praises for it.

Hey hey hey, by now you guys should just trust Nuforce  :wink:
Whatever we release, it is always good  :thumb:

Seriously, every product goes through this process:
1) Listening test by our Casey, with Jason as another lab test subject.
2) Listening test by a few golden ear audiophiles.
We bring the product into production when everyone give it a thumb's up

Wow

I just unboxed my Icon Mobile and am now using it with my Altec Lansing UHP336 as a DAC out of my computer w/o any burn-in........     I am extremely amazed by the improvement in the lower registers now.  The guitars sound so much more clear and real  :drool:

This amp is perfect.  But if somehow you guys do end up developing an Icon Mobile v2, I will be the first to buy   :thumb:

I'm using foobar 2K v9.
Is there a place to download the proper ASIO or KS drivers for Icon Mobile? Right now only DS works for me.

There is no specific driver for Icon Mobile. You can just update the ASIO driver on your PC from http://www.asio4all.com/
