SoundMAGIC PL-30 Review #1

[pros1n]

Friend's E3

[samueljesusfreak]

I have no friends closeby who care about audio. You are lucky!

So yeah, I've been using my Marshmallows around-the-ear lately. I like the design. No microphonics

[pros1n]

The bass isn't as strong as the marshmallows, but the soundmagics do have better highs and mids than the marshmallows

[samueljesusfreak]

I've been aching for less bass than my Marshmallows, anyway. Oh I can't wait until I get them. Still no tracking information, or shipping confirmation. Patience... the E3 probably just didn't arrive yet.

[samueljesusfreak]

So, after a while of burning in, how do they sound now, pros1n?

Still no tracking info from mp4nation, but they told me it has shipped(as of last tuesday)..

So I'm waiting patiently.... not so patiently.. haha. These foamies are starting to become unusable. lol.

At least I got tracking info. Mine just left Honk Kong today. Maybe yours is coming soon.

Unfortunately I did. I should have ordered from FocalPrice.

[samueljesusfreak]

At least we'll get them. Haha.

[pros1n]

So do you think you'll get them by the end of this week?

[samueljesusfreak]

I don't know.. =[ I won't know until I get my tracking number. IF I get my tracking number.

How are they now after some burn-in?

Just emailed them; they told me last tuesday that they have shipped; I'm just confirming that my order shipped. Guess I don't NEED a tracking number, but it would be nice. MAYBE this week, I guess.

I'm sure getting sick of these muddy Marshmallows, that's for sure.

[pros1n]

The bass is warmer than before, mids are just as bliss as they were before and highs are still okay.

[samueljesusfreak]

That's good. I'm looking so forward to these. I don't have much more patience. 3 weeks since ordering on Wednesday.

[Eternum]

I ordered from FocalPrice on Mar 9. They sent me tracking number on Mar 10. USPS says package left HK on Mar 13. Still waiting.

[pros1n]

FocalPrice is very fast. They take 1 day to get the item AND ship it out through post office. From there, Hong Kong post will take 1 day to process the order and another day to arrive to your city. After, your item will go through customs which usually takes 1-3 days before it goes to the post office and ship it to your door.

Hong Kong post is pretty fast you say? Good. Because it's out of Mp4nation's hands and now in control of HKP.

And, don't get a negative impression of Mp4nation from me. 2 and a half weeks of this waiting was for the E3 to get back in stock; no fault of Mp4nation.

HA! I got my sound magic pl30's before you! Just kidding, you'll probably get them soon.
Have they been shipped from hongkong yet or is it still processing?

So you got a tracking number right? If so, your item will arrive very soon.

Yes, but with the info I have, it hasn't technically left Hong Kong yet, to my knowledge.
