Yep, I hope UPS doesn't ding me too much with their insane brokerage fees...

I'm probably one of the first 20, but not the first :P I had to order on an iPhone...

Even coming from the Merlins and Westone 3, these things are good. Not just "good for the price", but flat out good If they broke tomorrow I'd buy them again in a heartbeat, even if they cost twice as much. They come with a nice little semi-hard carrying case that has room for a Clip+ as well as the iems. Bass is deep as expected from the big dynamic driver, but also (at this price point) surprisingly tight. The rest of the spectrum is very nicely represented as well. Definitely keepers.They're not knocking my Merlins off their throne off course, but as a secondary set they're a no-brainer for sure. Heck, I might pick up a spare set just to keep as backup.



I have those, the Sony MDR-EX310. Yes very good and a nice all round, balanced performance with good bass just as you have described. Even though it lacks resolution and detail, overall it is an absolute bargain at the price point. My daughter uses them now for her school bus journey. You should also try the JVC HAFXC51, at the same price point, I liked them too but they were lost by my daughter along with her wallet after a week............frown.gif

I pretty much fell for it myself, I was really pissed and tried to think of something to cheer myself up. So I wondered what pudu would do if he was in my place, share it so that everyone else would fall for it too. Puuuuuuurfectly evil and brilliant I know.  Oh and you don’t have to thank me.  tongue_smile.gif

I always knew you were the mom type. I had my doubts at first with you being a guy and all. But I knew it all along. Hope you had a wonderful and fantastic mother’s day pudu lol. tongue_smile.gif

 

p.s. my fiancé could care less when his dx100 will ship. And I’m kind of frustrated with ibasso and their lack of communication regarding my device and my fiancé device. I decided to take it out here lol.

I asked in a email if they could Blog or post on forums to pass info to people that ordered and got this responce.

 

Hi,

Blog would be a great idea. But Chinese government blocked twitter and facebook.

Anyway, I promise yours will be picked up tomorrow. The UPS tracking number will available on the day after tomorrow.

Drat and blast, I've been found out. mad.gif

What gave it away? My inability to contemplate that I may be incorrect about anything, my excellent taste in shoes, or my general overriding yet strangely charismatic evilness?

LOL, I just saw this one. biggrin.gif

Nice.

Incidentally there is a sale on some countries that no one seems to be putting to good use. I think I'm going to pick up Bhutan for a hiking trip this summer. Don't know how long these prices will last, so my advice is buy asap.
