Seems to me that wouldn't be a fair comparison unless you had a mono recording....because of the different information in the two channels. Either way, I'm content.wink.gif

Ok,  i bought my Fire Phoenix.. for now no optical cable, i will used the USB functionality first. so i will give impressions in a few weeks.

Since it goes for $90+$15.00 shipping, its cheaper than a Fiio DAC. Also  i am not using my Fiio E11 that much, so as soon i get my  Firewhatever Dac  i am  selling the Fiio E11, i am keeping the E6 for portable use.

 

Like i said in another thread, since i bought the S500 and FXD80 i am not needing more iems o Hp, so i will start spending on "hardware" and music, to enjoy my phones.

 
Just waiting for the S400 to hit the states to buy a pair for my wife and waiting for a 50mm NCT Heaphone.

 

Come on JVC.. BRING IT ON!  50mm HEADPHONE!!!  You guys got my money!!

 

the S400s are on Amazon right now for 35 with free Prime shipping!

They list the drivers as being Neodymium too. One to three months? You got that right. So I payed a bit more for shipping. not a thang. Expect my white ones by next week.

The 1-3 months really just means Amazon doesn't know exactly when they're getting them from JVC. I doubt it will be nearly that long.

Iv'e had the s400's on order from amazon for about 2 weeks now.  

 

In my order information, it says they expected to be delivered anywhere from november 1st to december 26th. 

So yeah, sounds like they don't know and hopefully it'll be sooner :).

Did you call them to see when it ships? Note that they don't list a shipping date, but say to call.
