It does! Thanks.

Help me understand quickly, why do I want these? I'm sure I do, but I am not sure why.

Since most people are guessing, and a few have their strategy, I thought I would share mine.    Originally, I was going to collect everyone's guesses and make mine on the last day based off of averages, gaps, etc. So far, I have 730 guesses in about 18hrs, and no desire to keep collecting...

I picked up my pair 3 days after Christmas at a tjmaxx near me. I have checked back a few times and tdk products don't seem to be arriving anymore. I still haven't given up but I am not optimistic.

Thanks for the info. I am even more excited about this now. One thing I am concerned about though is the impedance. Do you know what I should expect without it?

Has anyone had a pair of BA200s reshelled? I was considering this with inearz. Any thoughts on what it would do to the sound. 

Making room for deals. 

I just realized I am following a forum that has people who have so many headphones they need excel to keep track... you people are bad influences.   On that note, time to shop for a set of custom IEMs... I hate you all. 

I choose the M80s when I was looking for an on ear option. Their build is great. I use them to travel and the hard case was great. Also, the boom mic option is great for gaming.

I didn't find the M80s to have that much improvement. The dac likely helped the most. The M80s were my first real pair of decent headphones but I agree that before the E18 really makes a difference you will need to update your headphones.

Thanks for the tip. I'll try that.

I just plugged mine in to check. So far I have only used it for a DAC from my phone. I can't even get this to work for my computer. The switch is on PC IN and the the amp is turned on. When the amp is turned on, I see SPDIF Interface FiiO USB DAC-E18 as options for the sound. I have tried...

The deal is in store only. You will need A frys near you to take advantage of this one.

I picked up the E18 about three weeks ago when it was still available through Amazon. So far I love it. I use it mainly as a portable DAC/AMP for my Note 2 although it works great with the PC too.    I have the V-Moda M-80s, TDK BA200s, and Sennheiser HD598. The E18 with bass boost really...

I just picked up a set at Frys. They are on clearance for $149.99 new. I got an "open box" which didn't look like it was ever removed from the packaging. Since it was on clearance, the open box discount was 15%. If you have a Frys in your area and are looking for a pair of these, now is the...
