Phiaton MS400
Forgive me if it's already been mentioned, but I was looking through the graphs today and I saw one for the Phiaton MS400. Is HeadRoom going to be carrying the MS400?

I'm not sure 100% on this, but I believe its just listed for comparison, they, at one time, had Bose on-ears listed as well, although I can't seem to find those for comparison anymore (but to my knowledge, they've never sold Bose products)

They also tested Stax, iBuds and a few more too. They kept those graphs for comparison purposes, I think.

We've had to remeasure everything. We did the Phatons for a magazine so just happened to have them.
We had a pair of Delta airlines $2.00 cans, but they busted during the test. 
We're mainly working on cans that we sell at the moment, but will be delving deeper as time goes on.

Was it for Stereophile?
My friend lost his iPod earbuds once so he started using a pair of US Air headphones until he bought new ones. They lasted about two days before they fell apart in his hands. They're only worth a few dollars for good reason.

well aren't airline headphones designed to basically last the duration of the flight, and not much more?

Should be that what ever is there can be measured against anything else that's there. The Denons are up. Here's the 5000s against some good cans.
We were double checking the Denons because the bass is so different. Here's all of the pricy ones.
I'm not sure if the measurements up there are the latest or not, I think they're basically okay though.
We are remeasuring cans
