haha.... I've bought a couple of IEMs from them that were delivered quickly. Not done a preorder though. Should i be worried?
If things aren't going to plan i will tell them to cancel and wait for a local supplier to get the E17 so not too worried.

I would wait for a few end users feedback before buying the E17. No doubt that there are some features and benefits added but the main point is how big a jump in SQ from the E7/E9 combo or even from the E7.
 
Why's the rush? Not like this is a limited edition .

Would it be a better option to wait for the E17 to be officially released? Assuming that this is when the first batch is sent out, I'm thinking, that should be around the time it hits other stores such as Amazon and we could just order there and get it sooner than mid Feb, no?

If you missed the first preorder that probably makes the most sense.

Hmm. At least that is earlier than mid February.

Ok, a dumb question...Can I hook this thing on my iMac and forget about battery going empty?...or does the 15h portable battery time apply whether it's connected to a usb port or not?

 

[tme110]

you probably shouldn't post the same question in multiple threads but the e17 is charged by usb so you wouldn't be using the battery if on usb,

can anyone tell me how it sounds when paired up with the E9?

Here, here!
 
I have my eye on picking up an e17 when they become available. Is there any news on it's release status?
