    Kind of hard to know what to do at this point. No word yet on Shannon Parks about what's in the pipeline.

    For all we know, he will have new products out relatively soon that'll blow his previous Budgie preamps out of the water. In such an event, one might regret buying any used Budgie when instead the money could go towards the newer (presumably) better ones.
     
  2. I wouldn’t hold my breath. Circuit design and product development always takes way longer than one thinks going in.

    Shannon’s new phono pre is available.

    Not sure how well this will go over. Seems like an odd direction from a company that was making something so well received.

    Glad I got mine when I did, I was going to wait till this October but I happened to have $ at the time. I will say it would be nice to be able to adjust the gain setting on the budgie hybrid, but it's really not a huge need with my current set up. I guess "technically" speaking I could stand to knock the gain down by 2 db, but whatever.
