Congrats... on the 671. Let us know how you like it.
+T for making your own power cable.
I ran mine Friday night for the first time. Worked GREAT, was super easy to use, level meters are really nice, and not having to wait for realtime playback when doing transfer to PC is AWESOME! I'm excited.

I've got a dinosaur PC with only USB 1.0. My transfer time for 4 GB (4 hours of 24 bit, 48 kHz) is right around an hour. Though not great, it sure beats transfering DATs in real time.
I use a card reader, rather than plugging into the 671 for transfers.
