anyone in the USA who has received theirs, how did it arrive, UPS, FedEx, or USPS? I ask because I know the time those all arrive at my house so It would give me a time that I would have to be on the look out for the package.
Initial shipments for US (early Aug) were completely handled by DHL. Current shipments for US (End of Aug - Sep) are going through DHL for shipment to US and then USPS for last mile delivery. For Canada, it is DHL through out.

Did you put the Mobius on pairing mode ? Double click the power button and the mobius will enter the Pairing mode
Thanks! That worked. Didn't see that being mentioned in the manual.

In LDAC mode, the audio quality is very good.

So in bluetooth mode, it is not possible to set Hi-res option for music playback?

In Bluetooth mode, the host (Mobile phone or DAP or AndroidTV/Apple TV etc) dictate and select the best mode to pair with. The client (mobius) just follows the host (master device). This happens during the handshake-pairing. Hi-Res mode is only possible if the host uses LDAC 32/96 mode. This will also be the default LDAC mode in most new android devices. So, if you choose LDAC, you are most likely in Hi-Res mode. The easiest way to determine this, would be the head-tracking and 3D audio will be disabled in this mode.

In the Android device you can go into developer options and change the LDAC settings lower. You can enable head tracking / 3D audio by choosing a lower sampling rate (48 Khz).

Dang, man. An entire day wasted today with the transfer between DHL/USPS. Stagnated. Annoying. As annoying as reading me complain about it? Only you can answer. But this still makes me quite perturbed. Staying with DHL sans USPS hand-off and I'd be rocking my earmuffs right now.

Hemtmaker, I had completely forgotten about that Corsair stand. That would go great with my Corsair K95 RGB keyboard and Team Copper!

What does that stand do?

Nothing really, just for the looks. It does have a built in sound card but I am not using it...

I'm smitten on RGB and I've gone overload on it in my pc case, cooling fans and everything. I just got the Audeze/Mobius stand but will relegate that to living room duty. I think I need that Corsair to go with the rest of my LED ensemble.

I don't need the 7.1 from the stand as I'll be going directly to my GTX 1080 Strix video card. Scratch that, I'll be going into my pc via USB 3.1 on my pc.

i was worried that the stand might be too short, but it turns out to be okay :)

Sat all day in Phoenix, 3am last night and finally down here in Tucson. Good gawd, ya'll. Finally I'll have my hopefully beloved Mobius tomorrow (well, Saturday, today)! Hope many of you all do as well.

Mine arrived this morning! Tried them on bluetooth from my phone via Spotify and currently listening to Spotify from my computer via the USB cable. 3D mode was enabled and off center to the left. Look directly forward and tap the 3D button once to center and all is well. Really enjoying the sound so far as an alternative to my K7XX.
