We're looking to arrange two mini tours, one in Europe and one in North America. We would like four volunteers in each territory to try the Heaven VII, write a review and then send it on to the next reviewer.
 
To apply, simply copy, paste and complete the info below in a reply in this thread. We’ll close applications in seven days time and then choose and contact the selected reviewers. Final Europe will co-ordinate these tours and will be your point of contact for any questions.

It goes without saying but I have read and agree to the terms and conditions. I'm more than honored for the opportunity to demo and review your product. If selected you'll receive the same devotion I'm showing the Oppo PM-3 loaner program. Best of luck to all who apply!!

I promise to be a bit less wordy in my review if I'm blessed (see what I did there?) with the chance to hear this IEM.
