I also ordered one.  AFAIK, they haven't shipped yet, but are really close to. 
Oppo Ceasing production
Weird.  At this point, with as many years as I have in this sector, nothing surprises me anymore.I absolutely adore my Sonica DAC.  Was hoping for MQA to be added, but apparently that won't happen... 
Belles 350a or Mccormack DNA -1 Deluxe?
snagged a vt01 pre amp.. Both Very nice!! Agreed don't run poor sources. Awaiting delivery 350a SWEET combo!  The VT-01 with the 350A Ref should be killer.  I've owned both, but unfortunately never together.  What speaks?

Are Avalon still in Bussines
They are getting ready for the European premiere of the SAGA speaker in about 10 days.  I would bet they're kinda busy and might not even be here in the states. 
Bill Legall-MillerSound speaker driver repair
I think this is the first negative about Bill that I have ever read?  Sorry you had trouble.  I learned many years ago in this business, that there are always two sides to every story.  Just saying.You linked to your own website above.  Couldn't y... 
Timbernation Platform Problems
That is one beautiful rack, and it made me a bit jealous. +1  I've seen Chris's work first hand.  They are indeed very, very nice.  Too bad he has a little bit of quality control issues...
