Hey, those were MY Heresys! Circa 1979 or so. My older brother got them new in college and I have had them for many years since he moved and stupidly did not want to haul them with him! I have never heard them sound better than with Western Electric 300Bs feeding them.

Anyway, of course Klipsch has to come to CanJam! Don't be silly. You are entering the headphone market in a big way and this is quite simply the biggest and broadest headphone community in the world. Amazing amount of press coverage and when Koss joined us last year that made a big splash even though Sennheiser and Shure and Grado and many others had all been at the first national/international meet. You are sponsoring Head-Fi -- Premier, no less -- for a reason and this meet is a HUGE bang for your buck.

So, now that we have it settled that you will attend, we need to see you full headphone lineup with some computer speakers and full size speakers too if you decide on a room instead of or in addition to a table in the main room (no speakers there). There are younger members who are on the headphone-only end of the audio spectrum, but the majority of active members are into 2-ch and multi-ch audio as well. We will be thrilled to have you there whatever you bring.

See you in May! And don't forget the Custom 3s!
