December 7, 200718 yr My Rockhopper Audio β22 has arrived! I have to re-arrange and adjust my rack shelves since I didn't leave quite enough vertical space when I last adjusted the shelves. Well, I'm going to go set it up now!

Well, I'm going to go set it up now! so the single ended guys got theirs before the balanced people? ... i dont recall you saying you got the balanced one anyway. Pics and enjoy!
December 7, 200718 yr Author so the single ended guys got theirs before the balanced people? ... i dont recall you saying you got the balanced one anyway. Pics and enjoy! I ordered mine before Stephen setup either of the group-buys. No pics yet since I can't find my camera. It is a single-ended version, though the chassis is large enough to accommodate 4-ch balanced configuration.
December 7, 200718 yr Ok I realized if we have the NE meet there's a chance we'd have 3 B22's in attendance if Nate finishes his balanced one
December 7, 200718 yr Author ah so you have the big tank of a case pictured on his site? Not that one - mine's same size as the one pictured for the balanced group-buy (I measured the cases and they have the same dimension as mentioned there). I guess I'll go look for my camera before I set it up.
December 8, 200718 yr With baited breath I await your every word (and pics would be nice too ) I'm saving for a Rockhopper balanced B22
December 8, 200718 yr Author As usual, the lighting sucks and my camera skills are lacking, but here are some pics.

December 8, 200718 yr Author I forgot to add that 4-pin XLR jack isn't actually connected right now - it's there for the possible future plans (i.e., balanced). I may just get it wired to the 2nd headphone out at some point, though.

December 8, 200718 yr that looks hot even the wires are orange! and not just orange..... CREAMY ORANGE SWIRL! The front panel reminds me of Century Gothic font. It's like the amp came from metropolis or something.. I love it
December 8, 200718 yr Nice amp, but ridiculously large enclosures for a single ended headphone amp. penguins have trouble with precision layouts
December 8, 200718 yr Author Nice amp, but ridiculously large enclosures for a single ended headphone amp. Well, I asked for it so that I may be tempted in the future to go back to the balanced game - just not now.
December 8, 200718 yr I really like the orange wiring, great colour balance with the green and blue of the board. It's nice to see some electronics that are actually bright inside
