I ordered mine via buyee from Amazon jp on 29 Dec and it arrived today, in the UK. I paid almost 49,000 yen, the offer was on but you can't get it via buyee, I didn't fancy sending copies of my ID for tenso so just went via buyee. It still worked out a lot cheaper, after UK VAT & excise and p&p I paid just under £500 for the xdp-300r and a APU300B from yahoo jp.

The case fits very good, smooth and tight with no gabs, quite happy with it.
And yes I still have to peel of the original protection foil.
Looking into this case this but can't find any reseller in Europe yet.
Is it made of real leather or 'leatherette'?

I am sorry for you, maybe there will be a new sale soon again.
If not, than this is indeed not the dap with your name on it.

All of the reviews I have seen say that it is synthetic leather.
EDIT: After looking closer at the pics that paul66 posted, I am confident that it is not real leather. There is no stitching present anywhere, which would be required for a hide case. If there is genuine leather (animal hide) present on this case, it would simply be a paper thin layer laminated to a synthetic backing.

Can I use an adapter 2.5 male to 3.5 female and get the benefit of balanced output with iem's I have or do I need a balanced cable for the specific iem I will be using? Thank you for any suggestions.

Sorry, you will need a balanced cable to get balanced functionality. You can get a balanced cable with a 3.5mm male to 2.5 mm female adapter (opposite of what you specified) and use it as a normal cable when aneed to downgrade to normal 3.5mm single ended sources. But you will need a balanced cable from start to finish to get balanced functionality.

You are talking about making a balanced cable for headphones/iem's with an adapter to single ended. Is that correct?
