Loaner IC: AustinAudioWorks Black Amp

I have no preference , first or last or in between...looking forward to it either way, tracks ready...come to think
of it, maybe later is better, break in and all that...

 

If @rhythmdevils is included it's best to put us next to each other so it's a hand off instead of shipping. I'm fine to be bumped lower to make that happen.

 

Aaaand, we're off! Amp scheduled to arrive Monday and it will be broken in so no worries on that score.Will I be selling everything but the ZDS? I don't know but the Bakoon current based amps generally have rave reviews..

 

@dematted

 

Shouldn’t impressions go in a different thread so they are more easily found? Perhaps an admin can move the current ones. Great write up @bilboda.

 

Welcome Barry

 

dang... I tried to ignore this, but now I want to try it. Any chance I could get added on the list anywhere?

Hi Barry! Any shot you can share some info on the blackdac?

 

If we wind up with a Canadian leg of the loaner tour, I'd be interested (and there's at least one other forumite here local to me, so we'd get two sets of ears on it).

edit: I can't be first though, because Canada customs hates me

 

Loaner unit received yesterday from @dematted. Will open up and hook up this evening.

 

I would like to talk to you about my Black AMP if you are comfortable with such. My number is 512.912.6820 . If you like I can call you if you give me a number and a time. Off this record you can answer me at [email protected]. Thank you, Barry

 

You probably want to remove your email and phone since this is a public forum and anyone can see them. You can send those via a PM.

You can edit your post to remove them.

 

I'd be interested in being added to the loaner, if there's still room.

 

Thank you very much.

You are of course precisely correct and I appreciate your's and the forum's concern and follow through. The risks you responding to are absolutely real!

Although you had no way of knowing I do represent a 'corner case". In that I have mitigated the risk, this number is my business phone and found on my website and on an answering machine.

I truly do appreciate you concern and attention, you folks moderate this creation of yous with obvious affection and exactitude. Permit me to say that collectively, you do one hell of a good job in this method of tribal communications you birthed. Please pass my compliments on to the rest of the crew.

My regards and thanks, Barry

 

If there is any room at all for this loaner, please add me. Nashville, TN

 

Shipped out to @crenca via FedEx on Saturday. I noticed there wasn't any info re: required shipping carriers or insurance value in the original post like we usually have in loaner threads. Given that we didn't use forum funds to buy this, I insured for the full $1,500 replacement value. We typically require shipping via FedEx or UPS and require a signature.

 

Barry told me to insure for $500.00 and signature required. So, how did you like it?

 

I would think we should have an impressions thread in the amp forum. Any impressions will get lost is they are posted in the loaner forum.

I will ask a mod to move the posts over
