Notes:
I was fortunate enough to receive a prototype from Helix Lab, but I had been following the board already. I think the design is very refreshing compared to all the boards that have been coming out lately. It did sound pretty solid already without case foam, but as soon as I’ve put in some leftover poron sheet in (from my KFE CE), I was blown away by the sound. After building and using this prototype I’m tempted to go for the “Wildcard Squared“ option in GB.
