How does it work together with the MT32-pi?

Orderd one too. Mail with confirmation was send a minute later...

heh, the moment i read your message it struck me......

Hyperactive spam filter must've caught it, and yes there it was ofcourse.

Hello,
Is it sent from Europe ?

He's using correos mail to send out his stuff, so i believe Roberto is from Spain.

No VAT was added for shipping to Germany, so he must be ship from the EU.

Batch1 is now sold out. Hope you got one if you wanted

i ordered the second the shop offered them to (try and) make sure to get one.

I see only Batch1, no Batch2 announced yet. First Batch seems to be 150 Boards !

Well it would be nice to have the board asap, i thought i've read somewhere the batches would be 50 a round, but even better if they can handle 150 per batch?

got one.

The unique selling point for me was that with an itx form factor I can mount my hdd inside and have it all in one case.

Not having a better audio DAC tho is criminal and idiotic at this point.

Taken from their website:

"It sounds pretty good right?, but i know there are a lot of audiophiles out there who only want the best of the best, and that is why i built an interface on board to support an audio enhancement module; The IRONCLAD BLASTER FX.

Connecting this module adds an I2S DAC to your Ironclad Plus which improves the analog audio out quality of all connectors. It is plug and play, connect it, flip a switch on your DE10-Nano and you are set. having this module on board also enables the headphones amplified audio out for front panel connector on-board (the HDAUDIO header). The Ironclad Blaster FX is still being developed but will be offered with free shipping costs to buyers of the Ironclad Plus who bough the board before the release date of the Ironclad Blaster FX. The audio expansion connector on board can also be used to connect your I2S dac board of choice, also plug-and-play, no modification needs to be done to the Mini-ITX Ironclad, instructions about this will be provided in the online manual of the Ironclad Plus."

I knew that already but it's not an excuse why it shouldn't be there just with the base model

also true

Anyone that has actually received a board as of yet?
They started preorder for 2nd batch but have not started sending out 1st batch boards yet?

Website and twitter updates are scarce as well, in this tempo i wonder if people will receive their boards before the end of december?

first line in their last news update is :

"Hi everybody!, as you know production for the first batch keeps going, and all shipments from the first batch should go out during this month as it was planned, we are working hard to achieve that feat.""

That's nice and all but during this month, does that mean this week, next week, end of the month?

Holidays are here so i'm guessing he isn't going to get them out in time?

A few more updates in between would be nice.

Looks like people have been receiving them so he is shipping right now

that's why i'm asking here, but haven't seen anyone posting about them in here yet?

I will when I get mines

I sent Roberto an e-mail regarding delivery and he told me mine would be sent on the 23rd, so it should be in a little after the holidays i guess.

I've got a case awaiting the board and will update once built!

I have sent an email also. Cause of unknown shipping date it is better for me to change the adress for delivery. But no reaction / conformation yet

It can take two to three days as he's very busy at the moment, so i can appreciate him at least taking the time to answer.

Of course, I just want to make sure that he reads it and takes it into account. After all, it doesn't help if you send things through world history unnecessarily because there is no one there who can accept them.

Has anyone here already received such a board from Batch1? So far I have neither received a reply to my email from mid-December nor a shipping confirmation.

Mine is shipped on the 27th and should be in my country (the Netherlands) right now according to the spanish mail tracking code, once i receive the board i will update ofcourse!

Maybe you should try and contact Roberto again, he might've missed it or maybe a hyperactive spam mail filter like i had when i should've received the receipt of my purchase. (shipping mail came through fine though)

Thank you, I'd better do that again then.

Once i get my board in i'll take some shots to share, best of luck to you!

My IronClad Plus arrived yesterday. Here are some photos. I'm waiting on an adapter cable to convert my Case's USB3 cable to USB2. I still need to order a fan.

That red case is absolutely gorgeous.
