Easy mate, penknife along the join running along the top and bottom ends, being careful around the jack openings. Gently pry apart and just keep working, it will spread wider and wider then suddenly pop open. It's all good kabeer, you can even pop it back together when you've had a look around.
Ok I tried the penkife method and wasnt getting anywhere.
So I put a pliers nose in the battery compartment and yanked it, and it flew open lol (not reccomended method!).

Got my today also. I will let it burn for a while before I give any impressions. It doesn't look like it has any big caps that need to burn in though.
EDIT: Can't help myself, will leave some short impressions anyway.
The fiio is (at least before burn in, but I do not believe that burn in will change much) not completely neutral. As other have stated, it definitely gives the sound more body. I especially belive that it has a bumb in the lower midrange as well in the bass. This makes it add just a bit of warmth to the sound.
