1. As others have mentioned, thanks/props/details about the HF-1. Maybe plead with him to make them available past September?
2. How many different Grado drivers are there? I could imagine him doing his entire line with just two...one for the Prestige and one for the Reference, with all the improvements coming from enclosure design and better driver matching. Of course, there could be different drivers in all the cans, but I suspect the truth is somewhere in the middle.
Thanks Zanth/John for keeping the dialog going!

wait... um, isnt pleather 'plastic leather', and hence vinyl? :confused
I meant "pleather" as the general term for synthetic leather, which is usually pretty substantial and sometimes hard to differentiate from real leather (and made of plastics or artificial resins).

Ask John to name drop - what celebs approached him directly for a can, or even a question - and what does he think about the exposure cans are getting now on two fronts - ipods, and DJs, and the two totally different approaches you need for those types of uses (SR40 addresses the ipod, but DJing? is he interested in making a can for this culture?)

It went well. I then went to a Sigur Ros concert and that delayed my posting anything. I have to finish up a review before I post my comments, but we spoke about the HF-1's, the Street Styles and the boxes, headbands etc. I'll have the info posted by mid-week.

You talked about the boxes? Man I feel bad for John, especially since he addressed that stuff before, but I guess since the topic is thrashing about again, it couldn't have hurt to talk about it again. Thanks for the followup!
