REVIEW: Unique Melody Merlin - hybrid dynamic/balanced armature custom IEM
Yep, I think they've been getting smashed with orders. No email replies received as yet, but I did just receive a cable via express post, so I presume they're focusing on a backlog of operations/backend work at the moment. I think Matt's the only one running the shop at the moment...- yobs

Post Your Photography Here #2
Back on this forum after a long time in hiatus :). The cost of camera-fi encouraged a curvature in head-fi spending... I have too many that I want to post heh. Can see more here or here if you like :).- yobs

AUS import tax - alessandro
For alessandros, you could always try headphones.com.au. The ms-1s are about $150aud which is roughly the same when compared to most import shipping fees. I think they even have a shop front in perth so you can audition if you like.- yobs

Dynamic -> Armature IEMs. Where'd you go punchiness?

Looking for Small, Portable IEM Amp
Not too sure how much that LD goes for. But I'd say you couldn't go too far wrong with the Meier Headsix. Sounds like it'll be a mighty fine IEM amp. Good luck with it .- yobs

Good alternative to ipod stock earbuds that's NOT in-ear?
Someones eventually going to say this, so Koss KSC-75s. They're clip-ons and sound rather nice (and are very cheap). Other options are the Amadana Bamboo earphones, which also sound fairly nice. I can't get a decent fit however, so I personally get no bass. YMMV. I haven't heard the Yuins...- yobs
