Danny,
Are you still planning on offering the One.2 with sonicaps? Just curious.

[Danny Richie]

45 units are being made that way from the factory. I shipped them the caps.

Will there be a price difference?

How well will this amp perform with the N2X?

Thanks!

[Danny Richie]

Will there be a price difference?

A little.

How well will this amp perform with the N2X?

It won't play it real loud, but it will sound great.

[roymail]

So the N3 would be a better match for the Virtue w/Sonic cap amp? 

[dvenardos]

Depends on how loud you listen. I had the Neo 2x demo unit here and had no issue using it with my Virtue Two, but I don't listen at high SPL.

I suspect room size and ceiling height also comes into play here.

[Danny Richie]

Room size and listening distance are certainly in play, but the higher sensitivity of the N3 will go a long way.

Danny,

Any status update on delivery & price for the 45 One.2 units you ordered w/ Sonicaps?  I assume we are talking about the wunderbar Platinums, or Gen II's? 

Also, in keeping w/ the small form set-up ... Seth now offers a 28v 5 amp & 7 amp (2) battery kit vs. the (4) battery kit you offer. I suppose they all originate from Gary Dodd, so any chance you will be getting those smaller footprint kits as well?  Edit:  Nevermind re: this question. Virtue Audio shows these 2 battery options are from GR Research; but they don't show up on your website...

Thanks for any info you can provide.  I'm very interested as I'm sure are others on here.

[Danny Richie]

Those new units coming have Gen.1 Sonicaps.

The new smaller battery kits will be up on the web site as soon as I can get to it. They actually drop ship from Dodd Audio as Gary is the one that makes all the wiring harness for it all.

Hang in there.

[brother love]

Those new units coming have Gen.1 Sonicaps.

Danny,  re: the Sonicap Gen I selections ...

Did you experiment w/ the Sonicap Platinums or any Sonicap bypass configurations ?  Or was the real estate too limited, you wanted to keep the cost down, or just simply law of diminishing returns ?

I'm auditioning a One.2 now as part of the AC tour (super nice little amp ! ).  If the 80 Hz jumper is used to incorporate a sub,  then only the (2) .1uF capacitors come into play. I was curious if the (2) 2.2 uF capacitors are removed & the added room allows for larger .1 uF capacitors, if the Platinums would be of added benefit for the $58 cost vs. say $11 cost for the Gen I ?


vvv  Thanks Danny !  vvv

[Danny Richie]

....you wanted to keep the cost down,

Yep, just keeping the cost down. The end user can upgrade them if they want.

They would bring the performance level up a notch in either the by-pass position or in replacing the main cap if used with a sub.
