Does anyone know what batch Headroom currently has?
 
If I understand this right, the gold RCA connectors reduces the delay down to .1S?

When i bought mine, I asked the seller just to ensure that the offered units were tagged as "Olympus" (along with the golden connectors). This is the newest batch and I can confirm that there is no perceptible delay. Did you ask Headroom about this?.

I did ask Headroom about it. They told me that they has the latest batch. I'm not really sure which on the "latest" is. I was asking on here to see if anyone had bought one from them lately. 
 
Does anyone know if Windows Media Player will work well with the Fiio E10? Sound quality wise.

Windows media player will work just fine. As mentioned earlier by James @ FiiO, any E10 with the gold RCA connector shouldn't have the delay problem anymore. If it is the latest batch, then it should be fine as well.

Do you think I should use WMP with the Asio plug-in, or just leave it how it is? I want to make sure that there is a pure signal going to the Fiio (with no computer interference).

As far as I know, the E10 does not support ASIO, but it does support WASAPI (both give a direct and clean bit to bit link between the player and the DAC). Of course, the E10 also supports DS (Direct Sound) output (Windows processed).
 
If you are concerned about sound quality, I would recommend foobar2000 (with the WASAPI plugin). It is really great, lightweight and powerful.
 
NOTE: I tried both (WASAPI and DS) and could not tell any difference in sound quality.

As far as my opinion, I am generally doesn't bother with ASIO or WASAPI.

Don't worry about it, all the old batch should sold out in months ago.

Will release the ASIO driver for E10 in the coming soon, sorry for the delay.

Hmm... This isn't good. I need to use WMP with ASIO because of my Zune Pass files. Foobar won't play them. Can I use ASIO4All with WMP?
 
Someone needs to work out a solution for me! :D
