Well its not easy or not available to find use the eng site.  However, if you go to the original link http://world.taobao.com/item/44240667193.htm?fromSite=main&pid=mm_1100641_2323434_884563&unid=d97fb4211ff8ec68196beb0c1e446df9 you'll notice if you google translate that the top right corner 2nd link is for language.  SO if you choose not to google translate and select this tab, you can click english as your language.  It doesn't seem to be much better than google translate though -- or it might even just be google translate.

Once you have used that connectors for a little bit. Please update us with your findings on how it performs if you wouldn't mind

2. Get Amazon jp Prime (optional, but free shipping) 
3. Open a Tenso forwarding account.
4. Add a USA credit card to your Amazon jp account
5. Add your USA (credit card) billing address to your Amazon account.
6. Use your Tenso provided address as the shipping ddress.
7. Use Google Chrome to shop Amazon jp. (set it to always translate japanese to english)
8. Use Google to check JPY to USD rates.
9. Pay in USD (Amazon will convert to USD for you at checkout)
 
When your Amazon packages arrive at Tenso, you get an email. If you have several orders coming, you can choose to wait and consolidate all orders (for one shipping rate). Choose EMS.

You are right.  It's not easy. I ended up clicking the buy button pretty much on faith but checking out and setting up shipping was in English--can't remember how I did that but that part was easier.  Paypal works so I used that.
 
I should also mention that it's a 2-step process. You pay for the item and Taobao orders it.  When they have it in hand, they notify you, you select shipping method, and you pay for shipping.  Then they send it to you.  It's awkward but the connector is worth it if it works.  i have a about 6 hours on it including an hour on exercise equipment and it has worked flawlessly.  But who knows what tomorrow may bring.

No, not at all. To me Hugo sounds much more airy and handles female vocals much better than Mojo. I am currently listening to Chvrches Every Open Eye in high res and Hugo wins hands down. FYI - Headphones are Audeze LCD-XC.


That must be good then. This was one of the albums that caught my attention with Mojo. It handles the taut, stop start electronic music with ease, but the vocals still sound great.

I don't believe there is an optical  out on the Onkyo DP-X1. It outputs digital via USB OTG like an Android phone.

Hey guys, I'm thinking about picking one of these up but have a Nexus 6p with USB C. Anyone know if there's a usb c otg to micro usb cable? I don't really want to have to get a standard usb c cable and plug it in the micro usb cable cos it'll end up being too long.

68500 to 72000 yen is only about $30 USD difference.

  Amazon jp has it for 68500 also, but it wont be in stock until Feb 9th. So I bought it prime shipping from the next best Amazon seller @ 72000 yen. I trust Amazon and Tenso.
