Should be getting mine in 1-2 days. =) No customs to worry about either, being in Hong Kong and all.

Im thinking about buying one too.
How much did it cost before? is there another recommended DAC around 200$?

Was 198$ during the promo.

At 250$ You might want to look into a O2+ODAC Combo. I read one reveiw that said Schiit stack sounded the same which is 80$ less.

I'll write my own review when i get it

Hong Kong is a free port. The only things taxed on import are booze, tobacco, petrol, and methyl alcohol.

I should get mine soon. Pending how long customs takes.

From Malaysia here, for the taxes, it will be 10% (if Seller stated it as a electronic devices) and 15% (If Seller said this is a amplifier). And it is always be better for you to tell seller to under stated the value of items.
 
Between, Audinst will send me a MX-2 for review. But I think this won't be in any soon.

From my experience it is not better to understate the value as the customs here want to see the invoice anyway. 
Btw, my MX2 is in the customs office now because there was no invoice outside the parcel. So I need to go to customs, wait maybe 2 hours, show them the invoice and payment.
So if anybody else is ordering to Germany I would ask Audinst for putting an invoice in an envelope at the outside as it goes faster trough customs here. Would have had the MX2 already in my hands if they did.
Lets see, if I find the time today to get it.

I have had my unit for the last couple of days and I have to warn you guys. I am 100% certain the unit has no burn in at all..The sound went from mid forward the fist night to the highs brought out the next and this morning the bass end has finally showed up. So.. One tip. .Leave your units playing for several days before you take a good listen. More to come later.
