Here it goes... I shot them an e-mail asking about reseller opportunities. Let's hope they're interested...

You don't pay duty if you live in the U.S. or taxes. I think they mark them in a way that none is charged.

Well as far as I know, the US is very lax on import taxes, especially compared to Canada or some European countries that are quite strict.
I can declare US orders legally, knowing that generally they'll be safe from taxes. Others I sometimes need to underdeclare.
 
For headphone related equipment, at least in Canada, there is zero duty, only applicable taxes. I'm sure it's similar in the US.

I'm in the market for some new earphones,are these Earsonics better than the new Shure se535 that i was going to buy?....Thanks Alan


They are better (quite better) than the SE530, and since my understanding is that the sound sig hasn't really changed in the SE535, I would have to say yes they are better.

A poor man's take on high end audio...
 
Anyway, even a brief listening reveals that the Sflo2 has a clear HO out. I believe the bass extension on the Sflo2 is much better, and it also beats Ipod in terms of instrument placement. It doesn't sound as cramped as my Ipod Nano 5G. Pardon me, as my vocabulary on sound description is poor. After almost 2 months of waiting, it's time to see how the Sflo2 will handle the SM3.

nice @  koonhua. Very nice. By the way buddy, Fiio E7 has arrived in the city, I expect to see it sometime tomorrow as the mailman came earlier before the notice that the amp/DAC had landed.
