Julian, Thank you for your email. We do not supply Dabs directly so I am not surprised that they would not know about delivery schedules.
We ship a large number of units to our UK distributor every two weeks. As a matter of fact, a shipment is leaving today. Due to Dabs recent promotion, another shipment to the UK will be leaving next week ahead of schedule. I hope this helps.

You're not buying a computer peripheral, but rather a superbly engineered audiophile component."
