Definitely created lots of hype in Head-Fi! Too bad I already got the Zero, as these certainly sounds very capable in giving the Zero a run of their money at least!

I know someone who has already ordered one.  Well, the Keces 151 seems to be good value for a USB option. |

But I think my mind is pretty set on this, I'm just waiting for audio-good to announce the finalized version and I'll order it immediately. I even have the funds ready in my account. |

It'll be cool to tide me over for a month, but that's about it. I'm joining orders with someone... from elsewhere. |
