I received it extremely fast even using Economy International. I've ordered it on December 16th and it was shipped a few hours after that.

First impressions are very good. The build looks great for this Wyrd piece.

The most impressive part is the power plug. It looks like any ordinary plugs but it's actually a linear power supply.

You can notice it when you take the Wyrd plug in your hand, this is much heavier than your ordinary one. It is almost as heavy as the Wyrd.

I haven't had the chance to plug it in with Christmas coming but I will give my feedback as soon as possible. For the time being some pictures of this Schiit
They've got their Schiit goin' on! I think they are one of the most innovative companies in the audio industry. Reading Schiit Happened, it is clear that Jason Stoddard is one VERY sharp guy.

We already have too many companies with serious names

I know but I can't help myself ! This will be my next purchase

Just wander over to that headphone site, you can download a file that someone has put up with the book compiled into a PDF. Jason has been posting another chapter each week as a blog entry in the blogger's forum. It really is a great read, and very funny at times (like the time Alex flooded their warehouse when he hit a fire sprinkler with the forklift! LOL!)
