Yesterday, the package of my 8A was in California for custom scan, but today, it turn out to be at Incheon in Korea. What is going on with UPS? Have anyone experience this situation before?

UPS forwards the Customs info to a Ontario, California office for clearing, and it shows up in the tracking info as "Registered w/ clearing agency" or such. Package is one place, paperwork in another. But it all shows up in the tracking, so it seems confusing. Totally normal.

Now i have to look for new portable amp.. rendition 1, t1, leckerton,ray samuels, fiio, jds labs or apex glacier? Looking for best synergy plus not so expensive.

I have a Leckerton UHA-6S mk.II that I used with my 4.A to great effect.

X2. Great setup. I would recommend the 8610 opamp with the 4.A, my opinion.

I've got the Apex Glacier with me now and the Rendition 1 should arrive along with the 6.A soon. I'll make sure to post a brief comparison of the rendition 1 and the amp part of the Glacier.

I have the glacier and enjoy it with my 6.A and 8.A.

UHA-6S.MKII with the 209 is also excellent with the 4.A

UHa-6S.MKII is really popular! Apex design is so slim and beautiful but it is 2x the price, it is worth it? If i get the leckerton, 8610 or 209 is better? If the signel interference is not a problem

I went with the 209. From what I'm given to understand it's the most "neutral" of the opamps.

on the morning it appeared to be at Incheon, then after it appeared Louisville, KY. And right now, it stays at Alaska. OMG, I really don't know how UPS do business.

 

[OmsJtmz32]

Ups is horrible, i already decided to go Dhl in the future. But i know they always transit at incheon and alaska. Hope they arrive soon

Mine are set to hit tomorrow. But since they've left China they've been to...

China
California
Kentucky
Korea
Alaska

By tomorrow they will be with me in SF. I hope. Now that I know what I'm in for visually I'm doubly excited to hear them.

On that note, what did everyone else use as they inaugural track or album? For track I'm thinking The Battle from the Gladiator soundtrack and album the one from Alt-J. Any suggestions?

I opted for EMS instead? I don't trust UPS. They've damaged too many of my packages on a consistent basis. Just a horrible company IMO.

I didn’t realize we had a choice else I’d have asked for FedEx. They’re much better in SF, I find. Certainly delivers earlier in the day (which I love).

Yeah, not going to get anything done tomorrow…

I usually go with one of the tracks from the airborne toxic event live from the Walt Disney concert hall.

My unit is in Customs in San Fran, Cali. So not sure how long it will take them to release my package. I'm actually surprised it just didn't bypass Cali and not come straight to Hawaii. Some of my other packages from EMS came straight to Hawaii. So 3 days shipping.
