Thanks for the report, Ken!

With respect to that new Wadia product, I'm not quite sure I get it. Also if that thing costs $350, about $250 of the cost must be the case. I would guess an iMod with any ALO dock would outperform that.

Rumor has it that ALO might be teaming up with Snoop Dogg on a new headphone: The Fo Shizzle 1000's

Hopefully they will be ready for Can Jam 2008!

Dre ain't got nothin' on deez nutz!

Bravo, Ken. Bravo.

You know, If Monster ever did something like that for me, I'd be more afraid that they'd try to sue me over something.

Well, provided that you didn't sign any form of NDA, there really isn't anything they could do. But it really is a testament to the professionalism of Ken that despite this meeting, nothing was said until AFTER their public announcement. Sans NDA. I mean, it's not like he was under any blood oath of silence or anything.

So yeah, bravo indeed.

Hey Ed,

Your right! Well the whole time I was and am a bit uneasy about that, that company does have a long history of litigation.

It really was a honor to meet Noel, Kevin and the rest of the folks at the Monster offices, and get the tour. I was humbled that they would even ask for what I though. Kevin said asked me to keep it on the down low so thats what I intended to do. Man I wish I had the dough to build a headphone from scratch! Thanks for the post.

Ken
