Just don't mention such heavy models, someone might send them to Amir

@amirm could easily lift them after eating all those beautiful vegetables he's been growing. :)

@witwald has heard them I believe, and I am planning a listening audition this week or next work permitting.

They are on my shortlist, as are the F208's and perhaps the F226Be. Need something to use while the Labo's get some TLC.

I'll be very interested if someone have any experience with its little brother NS-3000, which is a lot cheaper but uses the same driver tech
