I ordered mine on Monday. Maybe you'll have it at least by the weekend. Enjoy, it is a lot smaller then expected. Nice.

it would have been loaded on a truck and 3 to 4 days later at your doorsteps. It's why if I order from newegg.com and see they are shipping all my stuff out of their California wharehouse, I go for supersaver UPS, since it will just be trucked to the airport and then flown to Hawaii. But if I see they are shipping out of their Jersey wharehouse, I go for the 2 day air, otherwise they will truck it to California and then fly it over. But 2 or 3 times, I ordered it supersaver UPS and it did ship out of California, but UPS sat on it and took the whole 5 days to get it to me, three of those days being my stuff taking up residence in their California distribution point.

Also, they sent my ibasso from China, to Alaska, to California and now its in Hawaii at the Honolulu airport getting ready to be trucked to me today. Hopefully my Denon D2000 makes it here today as well

nice nice yeah I can't wait I just wish ibasso would improve their website and customer service a tad so when you buy they send an invoice along with tracking info after it is sent. But as long as it gets here I don't mind

Just wanted to check in with everyone. I've been listening to all types of music with my new boa and wooded 225's. Can't see how it could get any better, I bought the boa mainly for listening on my laptop. My Grado's have never felt soooo comfortable. I think it's been almost 3 hours now, my wife just stares over from time to time with a smile. I guess you can call it a eargasm. For those who don't have an amp yet, believe me when I say it's time to open that wallet and pull the trigger. $175 is a bargain. Cheers.

Nice review, you think its possible to get pics of your boa and SR-225 together? Also how has the SQ improved on the Grados?
BTW I loveeee The Three Stooges they are classic.

UPS has delivered my ibasso D2 Boa, to someone...not me. So someone out there around where I live has my ibasso. I order tons of stuff online. I have only had problems with delivery 3 times (counting this) and all 3 times it was with UPS screwing up. The other 2 times it was resolved, AFTER 1 and 2 days of waiting. Pay extra for 2 day air only to have them screw it up and take way longer and all I get is an apology for their screw up, no reimbursement for them not making good on the 2 day delivery. Well, I just hope this doesn't turn into me filing out claim forms now.

Nah, I have my ibasso now. Seems they have to handwrite the shipping info from anything outside of the USA and the UPS guy was telling me he thought the "U" was an "A"...I looked at it, looks like a "U" to me, but whatever, I have it now. Why it has to be handwritten, I don't know and looks like the guy that got my ibasso delivered to his door opened it as well, which I think is pretty messed up to do. If I got a shipment from UPS to my front door that I was not expecting and it doesn't have my name on it, I would not open it, because I know damn well it's not mine.

On the bright side, everything is there, looks great and sounds even better. I only have a really crappy headphone right now till either the Denon D2000 or Grado SR80 comes in, but running it off the ibasso with USB has improved the sound on the crap headset tremendously compared to using my X-fi soundcard. I am liking it.
