@Andykong i got my submission, hope to see myself in it, had review history with cayin

Sure, I'll include everyone by default, the number of reviewers might limited the grouping and routing, let's hope the mailing cost will not driving people away.

Very cool...I was wondering what was happening, since I haven't received any notifications about this thread...musta been around the time of the infamous 'changeover', so that's understandable I guess. I hope to secure a place....very interested in the N3.

Hisoundfi (Wisconsin)

Group 2
Onix (Mexico City)
Mshenay (South Carolina)
Howlin Fester (North Carolina)
darmanastartes (Virginia)
jinxy245 (New York)

As you can see some of the groups will involve international mailing in between, I'll discuss the logistic with the reviewers via PM so the groupings and sequence might subject to change. I should be able to send out the N3 to the first reviewer of the group as scheduled (Monday the latest). Please stay tuned.

Well, since I am in Mexico and this is a worldwide tour, I guess I'll join.

Head-Fi username: Onix
Location (City, Country): Mexico City, Mexico
Current Portable Source gear: NWZ-X 1050 Walkman, Lenovo A1000
Current headphones: Sony MDR-NC020 noise cancelling iems
Portable Amplifiers: None now.

Links to previous reviews: None here, but I am currently the technology editor for theinsight.mx and I have a couple of very successful audio reviews here, albeit more high end and vinyl oriented:

http://theinsight.mx/equipo-audio-chilango-hecho-a-mano-llega-a-oidos-mundo/

http://theinsight.mx/el-disco-de-vinyl-sigue-dando-vueltas/

I also interviewed Jude Mansilla and John Grado regarding the Apple Earpods and their impact in the market:

http://expansion.mx/tecnologia/2016/09/09/los-airpods-de-apple-una-buena-decision-de-la-firma

I plan on more audio reviews here, focusing on headphones, portable amps and DIY, among other things.

I listen mostly to heavy metal, classical, prog and jazz, but lately some pop has been also on rotation. Depeche Mode is one of my faves.

I am a weird mix of an audiophile and a basshead. I had cans like the Sennheisser Momentum and the AKG K-44 as well as the Amps made by Norm Lagarno. As for players the Colorfly C3 was a favorite for a long time.

Thanks


Dear Mr Onix,

I have send a PM to you asking for your address, please check our PM and response at your earliest convenient.

PS: I can find the icon to quote a person in a message, can someone show me the trick?
