My pair from lendmeurears arrived today. Number 2145 - Only less than 2 thirds left!
Looking forward to having an extended listening session as soon as they're burnt in.

@rumlyne
when did you order yours? Mine haven't arrived as yet and it's been 3 weeks.


On 19th of january. The package went from Singapor to some country in South America and then straight to Austria. I was surprised with the relatively short delivery time myself!
I was just lucky, I think. With standart, cheap shipping it's always kind of a lottery.

Edit: Earlier in this thread a german member postet the tracing of his pair and it stopped in at least 10 countries before it finally arrived at his door step, just a few 100 kilometers away from me.

Thanks, everytime I check the tracking, all it says it it left Singapore the 16th January. Hopefully soon, this is the first order from LMUE i have placed. Man, are they slow.

@rumlyne when did you order yours? Mine haven't arrived as yet and it's been 3 weeks.

 
I ordered a package from LMUE at the beginning of January, and it only took nine days to get to Canada. But then it languished in customs for twelve days before arriving at my door.
 
Check out the package tracker at https://www.globalmail.dhl.com/web/portal-asia/traceit. When your earphones arrive at customs, it should say, "arrival at inward office of exchange" in the "Remarks" column. Shipping from LMUE seems to be fairly fast, but customs can take a long time.
 
And remember, LMUE says that, with free shipping, your package should arrive within fourteen working days. So if your package shipped on the 16th, you should get it by Friday.

Have fun unwrapping them! The packaging is quite nice!

I'm currently listenig to them with the long preinstalled buds on my DX90. They're fun! Little bit bright and warm sound I'd say. Very good seperation, with a soundstage wide and deep enough for me, but probably not for others. Bass is textured and quite present, but not annoying (and I'm easily annoyed by too much bass) or disturbing other frequencies. Find myself really enjoying drums, cymbals, percussion and voices! Also they are the first In-Ears NOT to fall out of my ears all the time, but that's definitely my ears' fault.

Our dollar has tanked man

Depressing as spoiled fudge...

The US dollar has gained quite some strength over the last few month and most retailers seem to be basing off their priced on it. So now everyone outside of USA is paying premium for everything. It's like for everything that cost me 100 usd 6 months ago now I have to pay like 20-25% more. For cheap stuff it's not such a big deal but when you put it in perspective, especially for people in countries with high customs fees and taxes something that used to cost 1000 bucks with the exchange costs like 1200 now. And $200 is a hell of an extra cost.
edit: not to mention that if you live ouside of US and sell stuff you bought last year you can literally bypass HF's rules and sell stuff to break even or even make a profit as technically you bought something at a certain usd price and with the exchange rate it costs more now.

I've got to say, using these more and more recently, and the more I use them, the more my opinion of them changes for the positive. Lovely coloring that feels really right once your brain adjusts, like the GR07. And Vsonic continue to really give their IEMs lovely texture and fast decay. Both this and the GR07 have that brittle accent to the treble that just sounds so damn awesome once you get used to it.
