Yes they did. It arrives here Friday according to the email I just got tonight. Did not realize my purchase caused them to be sold out.
Eating my words I posted in this thread very early on, where I said I was out, and would not be buying the N30LE.
But I became really intrigued after reading several posters comments on this thread who I not only respect but I've enjoyed reading their impressions here and on other fourms I follow, and have traded comments with several of them on a range of topics.
What caught my attention is normally these writters do NOT get giddy over a new acquisition. They did for the N30LE.
To read their comments, how this is to them the best sounding device they've listened to, and how many are going back through their entire collection of IEM's, headphones, and even cables and find the N30LE is breathing new life into equipment they were not listening to anymore, I started getting curious, even despite the early "teething pains" they/all of you have been through with the N30LE.
As ALWAYS kudos to Andy Kong. He has been influential in my decision with the way he's handled all the comments and concerns, and has given me confidence to go ahead and take the plunge..
CanJam So CA ended up being more expensive for me than I thought it would be.
Thought I'd be buying new IEM's and maybe a new cable for those IEM's.
Musicteck's tables was one stop of many, with the intent of listening to the N30LE to prove there wasn't enough difference over my N8ii or PAW6K. Wrong move. There was a difference, enough that it just kept gnawing away at the back of my brain, saying "BUY ME".
I had a great quarter at work and came into some incentive $'s for exceeding some goals, so this allowed me look at new HW, I otherwise would NOT be able to justify.
I was trying to stay off of Musicteck/Andrew's site but once I saw people posting here they had purchased the AP version without the IEM's it was all over, figuring IF I was going to be in I might as well jump in all the way. I'm talking about you bigbeans...see what you have done?
- actually thanks for shove to get me to just do it.
Looking forward to getting through burn in, and then the fun begins of trying the device out. Impressions once I've had some time with the device.
Andrew did warn me at CanJam, my N8ii that I really enjoy may end up in the classifieds for sale. We shall see.
Major dent in the wallet, but its done. Happy but broke
The old adage of Head-fi is alive and well.
Welcome to Head-Fi, sorry about your wallet.
