I am looking forward to your new site update. May I say, Headroom is one of my best resources for great headphone reviews and deals on the net. Keep up the good work

Also, I am not that sure about bringing SK to the table, but let's see. If indeed some of its products are good, then people will buy them, especially teens. Of course, if you compare them to the big boys like Grado, Senn, AT and Beyer, it's no contest. This will enable those people to frantically upgrade since they will know there are better brands out there.

The new changes to the website look great. Too bad I bought a Serious Audiophile Package 6 weeks ago...

I believe Koss offers a similar warranty service, and most reviews of it are very positive. I have not heard about the SK quality of warranty service, and have a hard time believing that it will be as good.

Good call, Joel. Way to represent.

I second the bit about reaching out to wider audiences. Once the Skull Candy-seeking crowd rolls onto the website, they'll discover the whole society of intense headphone-ing and will eventually buy a set of HD800s. It's inevitable. Kudos, HeadRoom. Your website is what led me to head-fi in the first place, and I bought my SR60s from you. It's good to see you guys updating just in time for the new decade.

I just noticed that HeadRoom is based out of Bozeman! I lived there for years, just moved east to Glendive a few years ago. Can't wait to move back though!

Congrats HeadRoom. These are still very tough economic times and I am impressed by your continued commitment to making the business work. I'd much rather see you guys sell SkullCandy phones than close the doors.

Good luck to you all.

Glad to hear that HeadRoom isn't going all generic and boring on us. I know from experience how painful it can be launching a new site, so all the best, and I look forward to seeing it when it goes live.

This is pretty awesome, I might even take this opportunity to get a pair of edition 8's shipped all the way here to Sweden.

This might be getting too hopeful/greedy, but is the 15% off good on B-stock?

Sorry FraGGleR, no additional 15% off on B-stock, but thanks for asking .

Thanks to everyone for your comments, which all help us in gauging this thing. Much appreciated.

We're close to launch! We've had some delays, but so go projects of this nature. Cross your fingers for later this week!

Congrats on the change. I have been buying from Headroom since before they were a gleam in my parents eyes.

Only one proble,: I don't see any pictures of me as the models in your website. What's up with that? Here is a headshot of me, in case you chaonge your mind:
