Just got Yulong Sabre D18 to replace my old DAC to pair the 339 with. Its a very musical combo, but for some it might be too slow. Though for me it sounds fantastic, have been listening for a few hours and still getting chills. 

I just found out the antelope zodiac would be the right pair with the 339/337..anyone tried one?

Oh good to hear - In what way do you mean slow? Didn't expect D18 to do this - expected a dynamic type of sound. What source did you come from?

Sorry haven't tried it, but the Yulong sabre d18 is a good match.

It was a tad to slow at first, but after burning it in for a few hours it became faster and now i'm happy with the speed of it. Maybe since beijing is pretty cold now when i listened to it at first it wasn't heated up yet. Now its simply sublime. Can't stop listening to it, very musical.

I am looking at getting the 339 for my He500.  I have one query though, does the 339 come with some sort of protection relay incase of power cuts?  
 
I live in Indonesia, where power cuts are common.  And would this damage the headphones?
 
Kind regards,

I don't think there are issues in that area. I am also an indonesian and the only thing you should worry about is the temperature. I once brought back my 339 home and didnt turn on the ac and left ky hd650 on top of it for 10-15 mins when i was back the headband melted. So just be careful as when i live in beijing it never gets hot and only occasionally warm.

Everytime i put my HD-650 on it just stares and reminds me not to put it on top of LF339. Although they are a heavenly pairing they should be left in contact for long periods under hot temperature. What a conflicted relaionship they have

Another query guys.  I have emailed Yiu about this but no reply.  Does the shipping come with a tracking number?  I am too scared to have it shipped to Indonesia and have it mysteriously disappear!

I'm in the same boat, I got a 339 on the way.  Liu sent an email to say my amp had shipped and was in transit but no tracking number.
Also I emailed them my phone number but Im sure they didn't give that to the courier.  I have live in a new construction development (Im the first and only resident!!)  that most UPS/Fedex guys haven't been able to find it but I always had a tracking so I could call them and pickup but not so in this case.
 
Does anyone know what courier (DHL, etc) Yuking09 uses when they ship to the United States?  
( I'm thinking of calling with my last name and maybe they get status that way.)

339 uses the cathode output.So no need to equip the power protection. Sudden electricity out can't damage the earphones. When the macine is on do to move or touch the tubes.
