Lovely.

Now back to my sick bed.

Now that's a serious head-fier! Hope you feel better soon.

I got my tracking number from MP4Nation and I also have one ordered from Head-Direct.

just finished charging my e5... doing a little "burn-in" before i do any real listening... will update with my amateur thoughts

edit: e5 #167
first impressions: after listening to the e5 through my es7's and my sr325i's, i can't say that does that much. soundstage and detail may be improved slightly. there is still hiss like with the e3. however, it is a linear progression (lower volume on the e5 yields less hiss). at the highest volume on the e5, the hiss is pretty much the same as the e3 imo.

bass boost reminds me of the e3. no bass boost feels more like a neutral amp that adds a little bit to the sound quality. i guess for $20ish it's okay.

i'll keep listening and try to see if it gets any better.

Mp4nation gave me a tracking number, but maybe i did not understand how to properly use it.

I try to insert the traking number in this web page,

Hongkong Post - Mail Tracking

but the site asks for another kind of code too, or tells me my number does not exist...

Can someone help me?

It takes a few days for HK Post to update their database. Maybe you should try the code later.

underneath the box where you type in your tracking number there is another box where you select your destination. the only problem is that i did not see italy on the list as a nation to be selected. it says above that second box "Online tracking information on the delivery status of registered mail/parcels sent overseas is available for selective countries. You can connect to the mail tracking website of the country below directly. For destinations not on the list, tracking information is only available up to departure from Hong Kong." not sure it can be tracked to italy. wish i could be more help.

I think you're right.
But i can't understand how useful can be... a mail tracking number that can't track the mail

What the.......are you serious? Well, I guess I can stop draining the h*ll
out of my Sansa Clip! I'm such a n00b, but I'll learn, thanks!

I got the newer Fiio because I was tired of changing batteries, glad Fiio addressed that with E5!

In that case, mine is #177. Also, the colour on the box said it was to be a white E5, but when I opened it up I found I had the more snazzy black model.

White as in the color of the plastic on the top and bottom. The main body is always in anodized aluminum black.

Anymore impressions from people that got there's? Alot of people have posted they got there and are charging it but have not returned to share their thoughts. Must be good as people are listing to it instead of posting here.
