x2, I hope that the Edition 8 will have the mids of the ESW10JPN and the bass of the Edition 9.

I just orderd mine tonight! had them put an extra box its coming from hong kong. they have a labor day tomorrow so they cant ship til tuesday when they will have it from the Audio Technica. But he said he would check the twistties and send me a picture of the wood to make sure its not messed up. I thought since I paid tonight I might get them friday! but NO LUCK so here comes the waiting another week.

Where do you guys ordered it? It's out of stock everywhere..and I do not want to buy such an expensive item on ebay....

I don't think it's cheaper when AudioCubes or Bluetin still had them in stock.
Try to contact Kuboten to find out if they have one on hands. I got my stuffs at better prices from them.

I ordered mine from ebay. But the stock is extremely extremely low now. So pricejapan (my first order attempt) cancelled mine and said that its not available. So unless you get VERY lucky or goto japan to a physical store, ebay is the only answer.

I found mine on eBay, they're shipping right now. It really seems like the last resort, stock's gone everywhere else as far as I can tell. I searched the user ID of the eBay seller here and found positive feedback in some posts- that might help, it made me feel better at least.

I'm also in the middle of another transaction with Kuboten, and so far I can highly recommend them. Very responsive.

I think for this question you are in the wrong thread. I would just email HiFlight.

Has anyone tried the Audio Technica DAC/AMP HD25D the blue light one. I can't find any real reviews. But I wonder if it has synergy like the grado ra1 does?

 

[uberburger101]

A friend of mine has the HA20 and I've heard it briefly with the ESW10JPN. At the price range, there really is nothing much to complain about with the combination.

I will try taking the ESW10's with me for a jog outside, hahahaha

Good luck!

i think its perfect for people who want a "hybrid" between a full sized headphone and iem

its a real looker.. but doesnt pack as enough punch as a full sized can, nor does it have as much isolation as an iem

 

[Lil' Knight]

What do you mean by saying "not enough punch"?

 

[thread]

Yeah, the lack of seal does take away a bit of engagement in a way... But in a quiet room, these phones are very lively and pack a great "punch" IMO.
