Ladies and Gents. This is an amazing product and I feel its superior to my Hifiman 601. Looks like my former DAP will be going up for sale shortly :).

[size=medium]  Note[/size]
 
Due to some users need to pare the high sensitive IEMs with ROCOO P or STUDIO-V which may have some slightly hiss to some listener to tolerate, we will have two solution for them.
1, Add in a good quality impedance cable ( adaptor, 70 OHM is recommended),
 
2, Those who intend to pair only with their high sensitive IEMs can require the customized Studio-BA version. The price will be $ 30 dollar higher than the STUDIO—V. The Studio BA version will have relatively lower output power. But it is enough for all mini earphones but not enough for full size headphones
.
Please be aware, only few IEMs and only few portion of users has the hiss problem with ROCOO P or STUDIO-v with their high sensitive IEMs. So, for the new potential buyers, We recommend to consider the first solution. For if you really can’t stand the possible hiss, you can use the impedance cable to delete it.
 
Any Hisound’s players users can PM me with the name, address, phone number, zip, for buying the Golden impedance cable with the specially price of $ 59/2= 29.5 , included shipping fees)

Just to help them out a little...
 
They're VERY quick to respond to emails and private messages. From this thread, it would seem they don't check their threads for posts very often or something. For more information, here is their product page:
 
http://hisoundservice.diytrade.com/sdp/1631317/4/pd-6322669/9927936-0/Studio.html
 
Not sure why that wasn't included in this thread, but it gives more details and should answer your question.
 
I found out about HiSound when I was looking at getting a hifiman 601. I asked for more information and they directed me to this thread. Placed a bid on Thursday. Sent payment on Friday. Received a tracking number on Sunday evening (Monday in Hong Kong) and received the player Tuesday morning (US). Needless to say, I was surprised to get it that quickly for international shipping. I did opt for DHL shipping ($20) over Hong Kong Post ($10), but it was still a lot faster than expected.
 
I'm just now getting the chance to test it out a bit and I'm impressed so far. My previous player was a Cowon D2+ and I'm liking the Studio-V more than the Cowon paired with a Total BitHead amp. In terms of looks and form, I like the Studio-V more as well. It has a bit more weight to it and feels solid. While the look is minimalistic, it's a nice looking device. The pictures above do a pretty good job of showing you what to expect. The back has much more of a glossy appearance than the pictures show. The UI isn't the best, but it's not terrible. The English instructions in the back of the manual are brief, but get the job done. I'd say the Cowon is a little easier to use, but it's not a massive difference. The accessories are fairly standard. Charger, USB cord plus a pair of PAA-1 earbuds. I haven't tested the earbuds out and I'm not sure how much I'll use them. I'm pretty sure I'll prefer my Etymotic IEM over the included buds. Like I said, I'm just now getting to use it, so I can't really give a whole lot of detailed impressions beyond what I've listed already. As of now, I'm very satisfied with the customer service and the product.
 
If anyone's looking for a new DAP, I would definitely consider this as an option if it is in your price range. This is a good chance to get a nice player at a reduced price.

Was it not posted on the page in the link I posted? I could be wrong, but I thought I saw it the last time I skimmed it.
 
I can understand that you would want the vendors to read their own threads, but generally it's best if you contact  someone directly if you're really interested in finding something out. They seem to be very good at responding to PM or email, so you might want to give that a try.
