Yesterday i confirmed the order by normal registered airmal, but still no infos from them; i really don't like their customer service.

I think the black hole one might be true.

Placed my order today to DX. I am in Italy. Let's see how long it will take. They ship to Italy (I have bought from them and Focalprice without problems in the past). About the story that people don't want to ship to Italy I too think that some stories are exaggerate. In the last ten years I received hundreds of packages from many countries, mostly from USA (vintage tube amps, books, clothings, etc) and I never lost one. Maybe I'm just lucky?

Mine has shipped from Hong Kong (through MP4Nation) today. Registered mail with tracking, not EMS. Can't wait

Don't worry about DX. My order took 2 days (once shipped) to the UK, and 4 days to get stock, process, package, and ship.

Me too!
Don't know if I may get it before christmas but it aren't important for me. They just need to hurry up if we even need to have a chance to get it in time.
I think I get the email confirmation tomorrow.

My order from MP4 is still "Processing" from 12/5/08. I got the Soundmagic P30 package. I figured for 20 bucks US I couldn't go wrong.

Just got my confirmation from DX after I started to read this thread! I am pretty excited, just got my UHP336 in today and burning them in as we speak! By the time the Fiio get's here, I should have the required 100hrs completed!

You do know that the UHP336 are Super.Fi 3 clones, and that they don't need burn-in, because they're armature drivers?

Just to confirm positive DX delivery times: I just received today a Dec. 4 order (not a FiiO E5; something similarly small). 6 days total, to the U.S. West Coast. I don't know if it makes any difference, but the item wasn't shipped via trackable mail, due to its low cost.

I just got my over the weekend while my stay in HK, I got to say it's awesome little amp, I have the B&O A8(I know), but I have to say, after proper break-in the A8 sounded really good without E5, and the E5 just made much better and the bass boost has help the lowend alot.
