I was considering also the mp4nation deal option (very tempting), even that I had already an E7. However, some horror histories about getting their stuff after 30 or even 60 days made me stay back, and ordered instead from micca store (at the $200 price bundle), since micca has nothing but good reputation here.



the Hong Kong Postal service gonna keep your package for 2 months if you order in the following 2.5 months, just check out the DealExtreme Forums.
Use Micca \ lambayrules - best dealers.
 
I bought my E9 from lambayrules and in less than a week it arrived to my post office (gonna pick it up tomorrow)

Got my E7/E9 combo today. And I love them.
My HD555 sounds so much better than from Asus Xonar U1(of course). Deeper bass, wider while realistic sound stage and definitely more details. The sound signature of records doesn't change to my ear, so like others said, E9 is a neutral amp which I like.
Only one small issue, the volume indicator on the big nob, a shallow groove is practically invisible from right side where I sit. I have to come quite close to check the nob position. Some white paints will do, I guess.
All in all, I am very happy with tthis setup and it might be the time to upgrade to a pair of high impedence headphones, like HD600?

Thanks for your share! from the second batch, the Knob will have a white paint which is marked by laser! and HD600 is a great Headphone on E9!

Oh yeah, that's probably the only real complaint I have when it comes to the E9's aesthetics... I can't see the volume knob's groove, but whenever I plug in my headphones I always set it to the lowest volume and gradually go up anyway. It's a minor complaint which feiao has stated that has been fixed in the second batch. I wouldn't part with my E9 just to have a white indicator.

Just a quick question, there seems to be a new batch of the e7s coming out every so often...are these just minor tweaks cuz if there is any noticable impreoevment, I can just w8 a little longer before buying it.

Fiio listens to it's buyers and addresses any issues with their products. Who wouldn't love a company like that?

As any responsible brand or company, we will improve the quality step by step! and will recall it if there have any  big bug or defective! and in fact, we test it before we release to the market so it never happened! so far there have not any big change in E7 from first batch!
 
but we do added a LED to indicate the charging status ! but it is only useful when you power off the E7!
