    No, this is a totally new block, I'm sure Eddy will pop in later/tomorrow and A) give us some internal shots (Doesn't matter if it's a render) B) the range of tops, Copper, Acrylic, Delrin ETC.

    I'm really looking forward to test results and testing this myself, looks great, and looks like it will perform just as good.

    Also on a side note, one etailer not to be named has already got them listed.

    The old logo was more artistic.

    Agreed. The last logo (bug actually) was fantastic. This is more generically techy so I can understand the decision from a marketing perspective.
    I was hoping with the update they would change the typeface used on the blocks. The oblique semi-handwriting just doesn't really suit them. It makes them feel human, that is flawed and imperfect. They also have a terrible relationship with the bug. I think a good Swiss style design would be fantastic.

    Glad I'm not the only one who prefers the old logo.

    Definitely not...I prefer the old logo too...new logo requires sharp lines on everything if you want to match it, which is okay, except EK does not do sharp lines on their products. Everything is smooth and curvy, flow lines and that does not match the new logo.

    Would fit better with MIPS design or something...very sharp lines.

    Hi!
    I am here.
    To answer most of your questions (do not take it personally if I forget any)
    - Internals little later also the designs of the jet plates versions, but you can imagine how it looks like as the concept is based on EK-Supreme.
    - tops will be for a start only Acrylic and Acetal little later also Copper version
    - we are thinking of different color of mounting plates, which ones would you prefer to see?

    Availability ~10 days.
