Didn't receive any tracking number until I was contacted by DHL to pay the import tax. The parcel seems to have been shipped directly from Hong Kong by a sender called AALIMITED

I live in France, and I just received mine today. Still early to conclude anything, yet : - I concur on the fact that the gray areas don't give a premium visual feel to the headphones - They do fit comfortably on my head/ears though I wear glasses - I'm honestly impressed by the level of...

I also backed the project, I'm not a frequent poster and I quite took my distances from head-fi to preserve my finances but I'll gladly share my feedback once I've received mine. :fingers_crossed: until then

Nothing special to report, everything went as expected, they replaced the failed transducer and even changed the cable. The process took 4 weeks for the headphones to come back and I'm happily enjoying my pair again !

Seems like i'll have the opportunity to experience Pioneer Support and RMA processes... Right channel isn't working anymore :'( and the cable is not the issue : i've inverted the channels and only left is working. Not even 200h.

Bought n°776 this week ! Happy to have jumped on this one and enjoying the experience so far.

Thanks to some reading here, and a good price found at amazon.co.uk (511£ shipped), I've a new pair of headphones at home ! Really impressed by the D7200, I have 2 pairs of TH-X00 (Purple & Ebony) and I have yet to A/B test three but I'll certainly sell one or the two Fostex. I'm currently...

HD600 would suit your tastes better.

I used to love MiniDiscs, I had 3 different Sharp models and i'd like to be able to compare them to my current gear.

I wear glasses allday long so with my headphones. Didn't do anything special with my ESW9 (Supra), or my A900(Circum) even if I change the pads by W5000's ones. Both are really comfy

I really liked 'The Sickness' it has really something new in the sound. But the others are great too.

+1 I put this one on my brother's rig and that's quite amazing. Best performance/bucks rating.

Damn, I shouldn't have read that topic... The amp seems as good as it looks !

I agree the Ibasso could be a good solution if you plan on buying a portable amp. If it's about desktop amp, this one could be a good alternative : Welcome to Audiophilechina you can also get it from a french website (dunno if it ships abroad you may email them) : Amplification : Musiland...

About players settings, here's my solution : disable volume control !!! (Preferences > Output > out_ds.dll or out_wave.dll settings) I use winamp and that's what i did so i can be sure sound is at is right volume before being amped through the soundcard.
