Amazon.com has it for 120 dollars.
I got it today, listening now and damn, haha even if there is a bit of shiny gadget syndrome,
I really abused and underfed my hd 600,s all those years,
Even from my note 3 usb to E17k and then to the A5 and into the sennies i am blown away.
I just started to tweak the e17k with a 6 gain and a 2dot bass and that went better,
Those settings don't come out of the line out so i am fiddling with gain and boost a bit but
Now i am listening to crime of the century by supertramp. Low gain and no bass boost, 48k-16bit and i cant wait to get into bed with the lights off to drift off on some shpongle. Clear and quiet but power like i never heard from the 600's. I am a noob on audio but here it is, my testemony on this setup.
I got them from Ebay, avshop_uk
From uk to netherlands in 4 days. 2nd item i got from them. Smooth sailings so far,

Which one is better in terms of detail retrieval. The A5 or E17K?
Wow, wonderful! Thank you for your support to our A5.
When is it going to be available in the United States. It's not on Amazon and a quick on-line check shows it is available in Hong Kong and England.
I'm a bit torn between the A5 and Cayin c5. for my Hifiman 400i and Ibasso Dx90. Any thoughts? I've been kicking this around for days and others have recommended the Cayin until I found this thread.
The C5 is "brighter" vs the Muses when playing through the 400i.
