The N200 seems popular,  mine shipped directly from Aurender California and I live in Boston.   I'm guessing they were out of stock and that was the quickest way, via DHL.   I think it will be worth the wait, hopefully you'll feel the same once you get it 

Ordered my new Aurender N200 from a dealer on Audiogon. It shipped from Korea and arrived here, in Missouri, in about 6 days. Aurender might be experiencing quite an uptick in sales due to their new Room compatibility.

Really like mine. It took 200+ hours to break in. Replaced their USB cable with a Supra 2.0 that is warmer and has more body.

Good luck, hope yours arrives soon.

Thanks,

Hopefully the shipping snafu doesn’t enter into the time you have with the unit before you decide if you want to return it.

  Issues like this always negatively impact my evaluation of a component because my emotions get involved.  Of course it shouldn’t matter but it does 

@rvpiano, I hope your new Aurender N200 arrives soon in one piece so that you can tell us what you think of it. I became aware of the Aurender line through the folks at Upscale Audio out in California. They had nothing but praise for the N200 when it’s properly implemented into a good system.  
 

@rvpiano That sounds like it may have been an error with how your dealer provided Aurender with your shipping address. Typically, it is drop shipped directly to you. And interestingly, if it ships via DHL from South Korea, it will get to you faster than when it ships FedEx from California.

I’ve never had Aurender mess up any addressing of any of my orders, and my clients get their units without any shipping issues. Aurender has always confirmed the mailing address with me before shipping, so if there were any errors, I would have had a chance to correct them. So try not to associate this issue with Aurender, but more likely the dealer, who may have made an error in providing the correct info.

Of course, the likelihood of a dealer taking accountability for such a mistake is slim to none!
