bummer 0 Report post Posted June 28, 2003 Just tot I drop a note ... Was at SL today and popped by Alpha Audio, and asked the guy about the X-can V3. Told me that they should be in soon. Music Fidelity has already circulated pamphlets on it. It's no longer the sleek sexy looking round rube; it's now a rectangular block. The list price is 250 pounds! Just tot I let u guys know Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bummer 0 Report post Posted June 28, 2003 Oh ya ... damm it ... maybe I'll just have to settle for an old V2 if someone is selling one ... Oh, by the way, the new V3 has a large volume control, if I remember the pic correctly. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mackie, you can strike me off the possible seller list cause I do have some emotions attached to it. I hope I can handle having 2 'mistresses' around demanding for attention.

Northern Oak 0 Report post Posted June 29, 2003 Quote: "August sees the launch of the incredible new X-Can V3 tube headphone amp. It has less distortion , wider bandwidth, lower noise and better stereo separation. It also provides better load driving ability, due to the lower output impedance. All of this means that is quite a step up from the outgoing V2 model. The casework has also been seriously upgraded with a fantastic front panel and dial, which is machined from solid aluminium."
