Looks like it's the OEM version of Fiio E09k with a DAC and without the dock. Since it's a pretty new product, I can't find any detailed reviews and comparisons. I guess it would be a better choice over E17 if you don't care portability and E17+E09K for it's price. However, the price is really not good.
Amazon has it for 104 and FREE shipping in US, which would only be $4 more expensive if you live in the States (with $10 shipping).:

Monoprice website has it for 98.56, but the international shipping cost is quite high:

Coz Amazon doesn't ship to Australia, I think this is still an OK deal for international buyers.
Would it be possible to negotiate a better price with Monoprice or drop the shipping cost, MD? A new product really needs to attract more buyers to help spread the good comments.
protonThe monoprice dac/amp on amazon is sold by monoprice and handled and shipped by amazon. When checking out, it says it won't be shipped to Australia. The same is true for many other products not directly sold by amazon, such as the schiit stuff.
