Nice review...I would love to see the Westone IEM's and the UE 3's and 5's included as well. Overall, though a 5 star effort and review, well done!

No import tax? You must be really lucky cause any item purchased oversea are taxable if over RM200 (like US$60). Now you really make me want to buy one myself What kind of shipping you used? Regular mail? Did your package received the custom stamp?

i can't recalled what courier roaddog online is using but it did stated its a gift.
maybe thats the reason they exempted the tax,and its a small packing 6"x6" only.
make them an offer price of $130 or less and the counter offer price is $142.95.

On the SA6, what does it mean by the case not being very functional? I assume that the case will hold the IEMs themselves (hopefully with the cables) as well as an extra bass and treble port, but what function does it lack? Carrying the tips, or just doesn't perform the functions it has very well?

As explained in my SA6 in-depth review:

The socket is too shallow to actually hold the speaker units in place and they will move around when I am trying to warp the cable around the base. Also, the headphone jack is larger than most normal jack (due to the chromed plastic cover) and doesn’t fit into the base too well (needs a slight bit of force). I love to see my SA6 in the included hard case on my desktop as a show piece, but I will definitely consider another case for portability. On the other hand, the small compartment that holds an extra set of ports is a good idea, just that the treble ports are too loose in the socket. Extra caution is needed to avoid losing ports accidentally
Statically pleasing but do not serve well as a portable solution. Taking out or putting in SA6 on the move is very frustrating. A regular Westone, Shure, or UE hardcase does the job in a much easier fashion.

Thanks, for some reason I couldn't find that using the search function (going through a couple of pages). EDIT: Oh wait, I just forgot to scroll down... I did actually look at that review
