L5 was released less than 3 months ago in China and not many people outside China knows about it. I'd suggest you drop Penonaudio an email. They are known to be responsive and eager to help. I suspect they don't replenish their L5 stock because there's no demand for it.

I was wondering about that too, so I asked about LP and they said that Pennaudio was not asking for further shipments after their sold out on their first wave. Maybe if some of you can send Pennaudio an email and ask for restocking, they might listen and offer more stock of L5.

Is there any English official website ? http://www.luxuryprecision.net/
 
Seems like a good product but lacking in support ? I might consider this over Ak120ii/AK100ii since it's lot cheaper.
 
And anyone knows if it comes with the cradle ?

As far as I know, they haven't yet appointed any official re-seller/distributor outside China. I doubt it is anywhere in their focus or priority list at this stage. After all they have a huge domestic market to keep themselves busy for a while. So I am afraid the only support that English speaking users outside China like us can expect will only be from kind-hearted fellow L5 users in this particular thread at Headfi.  
 
This thread was branched out of the "Obscure Chinese DAPs" thread and I believe we all know that buying "obscure" products from overseas is not for the faint-hearted, but we are all warriors, explorers and adventurers, aren't we?

Give them sometime guys, the company is also relatively new.
I have spoken to them trying to get more of their attentions for us western users, the head designer think that they should wait a few week until the firmware consolidates then "officially" start selling to us.
Meanwhile I will try to ask for a possible product tour so some of you can try it out before making purchases.
I agree with you guys as L5 is such a killer at this price range.

I am glad you have a privileged access to someone as important as the head designer, John. Hopefully they will have someone high up later coming to Headfi just like Fiio and Cayin. See we have Thomas from Cayin and James from Fiio coming regularly to Headfi responding to posts. Both of them are big bosses. Their presence here at Headfi are very reassuring and highly praised.   Someone please correct me if I am wrong, I think Joe Bloggs is some technical big cheese from Fiio.

That's going to be awesome! Don't forget also to get some good reviewers to a hands-on. For this, I nominate my brothers (from another mother), @twister6 and @Hisoundfi . They both have fanatical followers.

Ofc, keeping in touch with customers(or fans) is always a great way to know public opinions on their product. Not to mention it is also great marketing and PR.
Big thumb up for great communications from these two companies
