That's a great price. Would anyone happen to know if the 3800 requires the $99 DIRAC Full Bandwidth add on, do you need the full $349 option?

There was a Focal_NA rep who commented in that thread, seems a little shady though.

It appears the account claiming to be a focal representative and making claims about the warranty was a fake. The account was seemingly deleted by the user.
Edit: We've been able to verify the account was in fact real, I can't say why they've decided to delete their account or what this means with regards to any claims about warranty.

You can decide between the limited bandwidth version for $259 and the full bandwidth version for $349. The $99 upgrade is for users of the limited bandwidth version who later decide to switch to the full bandwidth version. Feel free to read the original information provided by Dirac:

No word on DLBC though. Really the only reason to build this receiver with 4 independent subs and options for how you integrate them. Only reason I’ve been dragging my feet on purchasing but now that I’m running dual subs it’s probably a no brainer upgrade over my Marantz with Audessey XT and mono sub out.

I don’t think there’s an issue with Adorama unless it says no warranty and if it’s brand new I wouldn’t be skeptical since it’s not a HiFiman xD

Honestly was really considering it but had to push myself away as I am on a two month pause from purchasing anything audio related. Plus I don’t really listen to headphones all much, but it’s really hard to pass up a good deal like that in my books. I’m a sucker for that.

Also I thought it was the 2021 version or the one with out the red focal hole
 
TOPPING D10b (silver) Balanced Mini USB DAC $104 Used

I only use these since the cheap gold plated ones on Amazon (tried 3 different vendors) have a 40-50 percent failure rate.
Never had one of these fail (out of 30-40 purchased so far).
6.35mm 1/4 to 3.5mm 1/8 Adapter Cable, 3-Pack $5.99

Pyle 5.1 Channel Amplifier Speaker System - 300W Bluetooth Wireless Surround Sound Home Theater $69 with free shipping.
Maybe good for a garage or basement, the shipping on this is at least $40 so I might grab one.

S.M.S.L SP400 New $440 Or Apos with 1 year warranty used for $409. I've had a few of these, sound great but would use a 5 volt DAC with it.

@amirm If you still have these, would love a review! I have heard good things, but have no first hand experience.

I am pretty sure there are reviews of it online, and also if my memory serves me correct he did try to measure them but it’s difficult cause they are on ear headphones and not over ear.

I bought a pair just to see what the hype is about and honestly they are nice headphones. I bought two, one of them I was going to do the Zeos mod on because the clamp pressure is crazy and it gets annoying after an hour of use.

I would say it’s over hyped, but in my experience they are actually good vs anything coming out of the mainstream audio company’s.
 
Drop has the Topping L30 headphone amp for $85 here.
This is the original L30, not the L30 II, but still a good deal for a new item.
And I would guess these are gonna be the "fixed" model that won't kill your headphones.

Been busy this week with a lot of stuff, and finished my highly energy efficient gaming system to keep office temps down (works great). Summer can be slow finding deals with everyone on vacation, very few eBay listings compared to usual. Here's a bunch with enough of a discount to be worth checking.

Beyerdynamic T90 Open Back Headphones | eBay

Beyerdynamic T90 Open Back Headphones. This is the headphone only with no box or accessories. These have been excellent headphones for me, but I just don't listen to music as much any more so I need to sell them. They are used, but they are still in great condition as they have been sitting...

I've had a couple of these, that's the Jubilee edition that was $699 new on Amazon when they came out. It sounds like a more V shaped DT880, kind of in between it and the DT990. I think they only made like 500 of that chrome jubilee edition. The micro-velour beyerdynamic pads for those are $90, but the DT series fits them too.
