If you do run out of Canadian (Montreal) homes for those babies, let me know!
Thanks for the program, hopefully it will be successful!
BTW, what would be the lending lenght? 1 week? 2 weeks?
2 Weeks. As for your situation, have you ever heard the GS-1000's? How about the PS-1's or RS-1's? If not you are welcome to come over to my place to have a listen. I'm only about an hour away

great idea
Accidents happen and that is fine. What I don't want are people wearing the phones outside etc. But if something does happen we will deal with that when the time comes. The person would have to ship them to Grado to get repaired, I think that is only fair, as for the cost of the repairs, I suppose it would depend on how much damage there is. Grado is usually quite generous with fixing some of the cheaper problems but new drivers etc may cost. At that point it seems to me that the person who broke them ought to pay for the repairs.

I was thinking one k701, one DT770/880, k240M, a900, D2000, ES7, D1000, HD580/600, HD25.
Those are all in the $200 or less range.
Having some portable amps going around would also be a good idea.
I think that a standard tomahawk and a Headsix in high gain would be a goo idea.
The best thing is that we may be able to get manufacturers to pitch in on this effort and offer reduces or free wares.
This is my longterm goal for sure. Before I approach companies, I want to be sure this programme is working out. If not, it would be quite a bit of leg work to get the phones only to have to return them. For now, I have 4 pairs on the move, perhaps by end of year I'll have 4x as many traveling through two continents.
id love, but do not qualify for, the gs1000 down to the rs2s and 325s, the sr60 isnt really worth the hassle, would be better to buy and sell
would love the sa5000, k701, d5000, hd650 etc and others that are around £300-£150 ($600-$300) used that i could possible buy
a pico would be good and other such porttable amps, cheap to post too and good adverting for the maker

As I described in the original post, the pictures are a means of tracking the condition of everything including the box. If the shipper did not package the unit properly before shipping and a claim was sent and denied, we would know it was not the fault of USPS etc, but rather the shipper for improper packaging. As for the address, it ensures that the sending and return addresses were indeed correct in the event of a lost package. A digital pic can be uploaded in seconds, getting me copies of all the paper work takes quite a bit longer as I don't have a fax machine and don't want to start using the one at work for person projects.
