I emailed Phil(who replied in about 10 minutes!) and he said they expect to take more orders in about 2-3 weeks from now.

I did my ears impressions during lunch :
 

 
 
I'll send it to Phil tomorrow.

I'm hoping someone here hears the newer BA4F version to give us an idea of how it sounds compared the the old version. I'm in a tough debate between the BA4F and the HY3

Haven't heard from Phil for 2 weeks :[
Not sure if he received my ear impressions~ 
Going to be ordering a BA4F!

 

[neozecat]

Same for me nokcha

Purchase activated but I'm waiting for him to explain to me the options

 

[Ultrainferno]

He has been quiet indeed. I'm sure he's working very hard

Got a response on Monday about my unique situation.
 
"It's been Epic" according to phil.  Apparantly my ears aren't particularly small but they are not the standard sort of size either (figures!).  He reckons the reason we have had all this trouble is that my ear muscle wall is a bit thicker (no jokes please!) than normal.
 
Cheers

Not sure many people have the original BA4 much less both. Maybe I can get my hands on the new version one of these days... if so I'll post impressions. In theory it sounds like an exceptional value, since the only complaint I have about the BA4 is the lightweight impact.

Actually on that point go read the face book page as they have decided again to rename it!
 
"BA4 and BA4R.

We are about to release the BA4 and would like to give some clarification. The BA4 was developed for the professional market being a true reference monitor, due to overwhelming response for a more everyday "fun" sound we have tweaked the BA4 to give some more low end and to be more powerful across the spectrum being easier to drive. We have decided to standardise this configuration to the BA4 and for those who want a pure reference monitor this will be available as a no cost option to the BA4 and will have the model designation of BA4R.

BA4 - fun, powerful and suitable for almost all genres.
BA4R - incredible neutral, a pure reference monitor."
 
Cheers

PS Nice to see swedish post is as reliable as the uk.  I imagine CE got the equivalent of our "tried to deliver" letter this morning even though they are a business

Awesome, I'd appreciate it if you do. BTW I see you mentioned that the HY3 were a significant upgrade to the TF10, would you say it's worth it to get the TF10 reshelled then?
 
Also, I'm curious to find out how the HY5 will sound, especially compared to something like the ES5

They have lost several items for me (but most of the time they just arrive several weeks late) I went to the post office today to send away ear impressions to Custom Art in Poland and they asked me if Poland is in Europe

Well, what did you tell them?

I told them that it is. Sometimes I even have to show them how you send away mail packages to foreign countries.
