People say they do, but I think it's a little odd to put $200 wooden cups on $120 headphones.  Probably better to spend $320 on a pair of headhphones to begin with.

Do the fischer wood cups fit these as like the FA-003 ?

They are very large, but also very lightweight for their size.

This HP is just too big for my head I think. I just don't think I buy it. Is it made of lightweight plastic?

then expect them monday (though friday is still possible). happened to me (part of first batch back in december). UPS fights with weekend delivery for some reason.
 
I don't know anything about the comparisons, but hm5 for those genres. definitely recommend. (especially since dubstep can be neglected)
 
 

 
Thanks--I guess it's their April Fools joke on us.

Mine is USPS too.  I don't know why I thought Fed Ex.  I bet most people in U.S. get them tomorrow.

Like a fool, I paid the extra $17.00 for the FedEx option.  Ironically, I don't have a tracking notice yet -- but, I just placed my order this past Saturday.  However, Amazon lists them as being in stock.  I could have waited 4 or 5 days, paid the higher (non pre-order) price and probably still received them earlier than I will.

It is always a matter of time, sometimes few days, sometime few months, my HM5 will be here in about 2 months (yes, I bought it on preorder... but, try to live in Brazil...).
 
lol

It seems like for those in the U.S., Amazon is mailing all of them so I think paying extra for shipping was probably a waste of money for those who did.  Oh well.  Who knew.  I did not think the free shipping would originate from Amazon in the States but I got the free shipping to save money.

Now on the UPS radar screen on the way from DFW.  Delivery still scheduled for tomorrow.

USPS tracking couldn't be more useless

I paid the extra for EMS.  Although I thought that was a private courier service like UPS or FedEx, it is actually express mail from Hong Kong.  I got a Hong Kong Mail tracking number, but if you enter it into USPS.com, you get more detailed information about where it is in the US.
 
Mine were shipped on 3-27, arrived in NY sorting facility on 3-29, which means delivery in Manhattan should be tomorrow.  Not bad. Of course mail to NYC is always faster than to other areas.
 
Can't wait!

Actually, that's why the USPS refers to it as a delivery confirmation number.  I believe it's slowly evolving into more of a tracking number - but, I'll agree, it is quite useless.

At long last, my Brainwavz are in hand! Have not listened to them yet, but initial impression is they are very light, yet feel well built.  Nice clean look to them as well.  Tried them on and they are quite comfortable, although with a fairly strong clamping force.
 
Can't wait to actually get some tunes pumping through these later on.

Be sure to let us know your impression~

Hey, sorry, I know this question has been asked before, but that was a month or two ago (in Jan and Feb).
I just wanted to know if anyone knows MP4nation is still shipping with the carrying case? It's an important deciding factor for me because I have no space to actually hang my headphones anywhere. If they can be put away in a case I would buy them in an instant.
I am sort of worried because I know that their pre-order is ending on Sunday (HK time or Canada time? I have no idea), but I am not sure if this will have any relevance?? If it is relevant, that only gets me more anxious.
 
PS. Thanks in advance, will be very grateful for the answer!

 

[Llloyd]

I believe they are still doing so.  I'm sure someone can confirm this pretty easily though.  I saw an unboxing from a few days ago that had a case.

 

[SteveSatch]

Still shipping with case.  Preorder and preorder price is over.
