In case anyone is interested, removed the pads over the weekend to put on some Brainwavz 100mm round pads. I was planning on mounting them with the bracket I removed from the original pads at first, but the new pads actually just slipped over the top pretty easily. They're loose enough to spin...

The guy I bought my initial pair of L3's from did say they scratched his inner ear a little (in a video review he'd done), but I can't feel them at all myself with the same set of L3's or a different set of L3's I bought after selling the first set to a friend. (I haven't heard him complain...

A note on ordering from Linsoul. I ordered some stuff a week before I ordered my custom L3's, but with free shipping, the order shipped quickly from Linsoul but has been sitting in Customs now for three weeks. Initially when I ordered my custom L3's I also used free shipping, but they didn't...

Got my custom shelled L3's in the mail yesterday. It looks like the packaging and carry case for them is different than what I've seen from at least the Clockwork version, and the pins are internal instead of QDC.

Got my new toy yesterday, enjoying it so far, although I am having the Wifi connection issues some other have also had. I like it more than my Fiio X3ii, as it seems to give me a bit more low end without having to mess with the EQ (sold my AP200 a bit too long ago for a good comparison from...

Much appreciated for the alert, snagged one. They only had the black in stock, but I don't mind too much in this case since the back is glass. (if the back was metal I would have waited to find a grey version)

@Joe Bloggs I don't suppose there is any info on when the R3 might be available for people who missed on the Kickstarter? (aka when it's available online)

Hoping to get my pair soon, even though they still show as sitting in China. Glad to get an impression of them beforehand though, been starving for some insight into how they sound.

Hiby R3 REVIEW (of the company) He says at the end he'll let other places talk about sound quality, and there already have been reviews of the sound from other sites.

New graphic from Kinera.

Could be worse I guess. I backed a Kickstarter back in 2012 and I (and others) still haven't gotten all of the rewards I should have from my pledge level, and the company went silent years ago about the issue. As is, while I would also be annoyed if delivery of my R3 was delayed for something...

Well, I guess I'll be getting to hear how the Kinera Idun's sound personally, as I managed to snag one of the 20 Limited Edition Idun's when they were put up for sale on AliExpress this morning.

Glad to hear it. I sold my AP200 a few weeks ago and have been itching to get a new DAP. So far the R3 seems like the best option for me, so I'm chomping at the bit for one.
