[Failed Engineer]

PCMall (where I'd placed an order a long time ago when they were 180) shipped mine on Friday and they are scheduled to arrive tomorrow via UPS. I'm so pumped. I've never had good canalphones and am very excited to get them in my hands.

You're in for a treat. I just ordered mine from Todd the Vinyl Junkie, hopefully it'll be in Japan in a week or so.

Don't be surprised if it takes you a little bit to figure out how to wear it and if, at first, you're disappointed with the sound quality. Honestly, when I got my Shure E5c, it took me three weeks to really get used to the sound, as well as consistently get a nice comfortable seal. But after that, man, the improvement over regular consumer phones is amazing.

Best regards,

-Jason

I think I'm a bit too overexcited about these phones. I emailed Earphonesolutions last night and they said they would email me back later 2day (its 7am here in the UK) when they will say whether they are able to make their deadline, though there was a hint that they might be behind schedule.

* I had some E3s then my lodger stole them (along with £200!) and I have been w/o anything for about 6 months (no music is better than the iPod stocks) so my 2:30 return bus journey I've had to read and all sorts of silly stuff.

Strange. It had been saying "Availability: Mid May ..." for as long as I remember.

It's quite tragic how much I'm longing for my phones to arrive.

I meant its better not to listen at all, than to listen to the iPod stocks.

Yes, Shure is shipping them to the dealers and maybe the consumers now. The dealers are shipping them to consummers when they get them. This was stated in a few posts above.

I recieved an email notice that my E4c's have shipped from Earphone Solutions. The wait is almost over.

Here's a copy of a message I've received from Flavio of FMASolutions after thanking him for shipping my E4C's quickly. They are to be commended for this brave and awesome decision.

Code:

[left]Jerrod, You are very welcome and thanks for the kind words! [b]We actually had to get these earphones at a higher price from another source.[/b] Our Shure shipment is not leaving until May 26th according to them, but our reputation is more valuable for us so we took the plunge. [b]We are practically breaking even but we are confident we are making many customers happy and certain that they will return to us for any help they need.[/b] Pre-orders are certainly not the ideal situation but we had to do it because the competition was doing it. Hopefully the supply will catch with the demand by mid June. Thank you, Flavio T. MicrophoneSolutions.com EarphoneSolutions.com Divisions of FMASolutions.com If you are happy with our service please tell your friends. If not, please let us know and we will make it right. These are some of our satisfied customers: http://www.mics.cc/ourcustomers.html[/left]

And that's my public thank you to EarphoneSolutions for doing this. My E4C's just shipped today, and will be here by the end of the week. Yahoo!
