Owl,
I know what I forgot to ask regarding your first look at the 880. I know this is going to sound like a meaningless question. I am asking because Tecsun's early marketing data mentioned it. Tecsun talks about the new speaker but also talks about a new speaker cover suggesting that there is something special about that as well. The pictures make it look like a metal mesh of some kind but you really can't tell. Did the screen over the speaker look like metal mesh or plastic or something else? Maybe it is something else and the material the mesh is made from is what makes it special. Thanks and thanks again for your post as well...really appreciate it.

What a great first look at the new 880. Glad to hear the review comments and especially the price change comment. I am almost deciding to tempt fate and hope the usual early production run bugs do not plague this product release. At least at first blush it looks like a great deal of thought has gone into the design of this receiver.
I wonder if Tecsun is trying to beat the January release date or if they are pretty much settled on the January release date.
