    The phones arrived today. The box and the headphones are in great condition. Ill try to find some time tonight to try them out between handing out and eating candy!

    Just realized only a 3.5mm jack...going to have to order an adapter.

    I might have included my adapter in the package.. Indeed I was planning so because I also had to search through my box to find the adapter lol. But in the later half of the days I mostly used portable dap to enjoy them so I just forgot. Oh well.

    @shotgunshane Could you please remove me from the loaner list? I've had an opportunity to listen to one from a friend locally. Thank you!

    Received and working beautifully

    The box is a bit beat up, I'll scrounge for another before shipping.

    @shotgunshane OP says this loaner was going to also include a ModMic of some kind. I was anticipating trying this. But, there is no ModMic in the box. Only headphones, standard 1/8" cable, and 1/4" adapter. Is this correct?

    Nobody else mentioned a ModMic so I am assuming it was never included?

    I am going to assume the Modmic was never included, since no one has replied, since you posted this, stating it was in the tour package. I’m confirming with @purr1n as well. Then I’ll make sure Apos knows we never received it.

    Checking on loaner status. I know it’s the holidays, just wanting to know everything is ok. @Inoculator is it still with you?

    @shotgunshane He contacted me for shipping info, and I suggested he hold it until after the new year to avoid holiday shipping traffic.

    These have been sent to @JK47 , so sorry that I ended up having these so long, not something I will make a habit of. They landed to me right before holiday travel, and then I ran into some personal issues as we entered the new year. I appreciate the opportunity to hear these though as once I finally had a chance to give them some real time I had some interesting findings. I will get impressions up shortly.
