Re: Time to go Planar!

Thanks, I saw that, but unfortunately £100 more. Maybe Monoprice will eventually get some more stock and at that lower price. Just have to keep checking now and then.

Re: Time to go Planar!

Emailed Monoprice yesterday. Unfortunately my suspicions were true. The headphones I ordered that were showing in stock were actually out of stock. It's taken them a few days to realise their system wasn't keeping up with orders. The reply I've got also says the 1070s are no longer available so I've...

Re: Time to go Planar!

Looks like the warehouse is in Holland and monoprice sorts all the customs. I will give it another day and then email them to see when it will be dispatched. It was odd as I had an email to say it was back in stock and they only had one pair left. I was busy and when I went back it was out of stock....

Re: Time to go Planar!

Still no email from monoprice to say my headphones have been dispatched. Ordered 1st December so would have thought they'd be on their way by now. Delivery is supposed to take 5-7 business days so should hopefully arrive by the end of the week.

Re: Time to go Planar!

Got the Sabaj A10h last week but still haven't tried it. Just ordered some Monolith M1070s. With a £10 subscription coupon they were £205.99, which seems like a good price. Some reviews mention the build quality isn't great, particularly the metal band, but hopefully they will be ok.

Re: Time to go Planar!

Ordered the Sabaj A10h. I went for a ‘used like new’ one for £66.33 from the same company that sells the new ones (via Amazon) so hopefully will be ok.

Thanks.

Oxymore? Didn't know about that, I will have a look.

Re: Time to go Planar!

Also a fan of Equinoxe. Magnetic Fields was also a favourite. Haven't played them in ages so will give them a listen tonight.

Re: Time to go Planar!

I nearly ordered the Sabaj PHA3 a few days ago. Had it in the basket, along with some cables, but changed my mind. I couldn't decide whether to go for the A10h instead. By the time I add the cost of replacement tubes the price was getting closer to the A10h as well. How do the two Sabaj amps compare...

Re: Time to go Planar!

That's great, I might try that if my planned separate system doesn't happen. I contacted Watford Valves and the tubes (or is it valves?) in the set are military spec and evidently better quality, hence the slightly higher price. Planning to order the amp and tubes/valves next week. Maybe some Monopr...
