    I might be interested too since fellow @Poleepkwa is listed, makes for easy shipping. I've only ever heard SR-507 for few seconds, so I'm curious..

    Not a friend but my Head-Fi feedback should prove I can handle things.. also have access to "free" DPD account so I'm willing to be the last Finn standing to ship it out.

    So eh, not sure if the conversation has been started already or I missed it or something, but is the tour going to progress according to the order in the participants list?

    Hmm, depends. I assume each gets a week to demo?
    I have work in another town from 19th to 20th, so I have to receive it possibly on 21st. Don't want to let it sit at the cold package station for 2 days.

    I wonder if it's worth rejigging the order a bit based on geography? For example, @pedalhead and I are both in the same country - if he was after me, it saves a border control step. I haven't looked at at everyone for optimisations, but there may be more.

    I don't mind if pedalhead goes ahead for geography reasons

    Assuming it's not a stupid idea, @sphinxvc and @MrButchi may have chosen the order for other sensible reasons, of course :D

    Edit, posts that crossed in the night. I will shut up for now, sounds like you have it under control!

    Me and @Priidik also interested, if possible sign us up. We are both located in same country. Better if we can ship/receive from somebody in Finland or north part of EU.

    Ok so I finally got my head out of my ass. Here is the provisional order list, taking into account that the package has been sent to @stratocaster :
    1 @stratocaster Austria
    2 @Serious Germany
    3 @Rozenberg Germany
    4 @IceUul Estonia
    5 @Priidik Estonia
    6 @Poleepkwa Finland
    7 @Hekeli Finland
    8 @Kattefjaes UK
    9 @pedalhead UK
    10 @Rthomas UK
    11 @Cspirou France

    Edit :
    1. Please do not forget to consult and put in practice the Loaner Guidelines

    2. When shipping, please insure for a 250€ value.

    3. When you receive the loaner, please come and signal yourself in this thread, along with your estimate date of shipping to the next participant. Please also confirm when the shipping is made.

    4. Sorry @Kattefjaes, will not start a conversation in the end because they appear to be limited to 5 people.

    Got the package today. I haven't done much listening yet, but I have already measured it. There seems to be some imbalance in the bass. Sorro, did you measure these? Do your measurements correspond in a way with mine below?

    Yellow is left, blue is right driver.
