Tiny but powerful and sounds great. In almost like-new condition and 100% functional. Asking CAD$100 or USD$75 plus shipping.

I've been out of the loop for years now. What happened to Light Harmonic? They seemed to have been a very well respected audio company, and they just completely disappeared. Their website doesn't even exist anymore to download drivers for their old products.

Who on earth is that?

Pricing will be under $400 according to this http://www.avsforum.com/monoprice-monolith-headphone-amps-thx-aaa-technology-unveiled/

I did some A/B testing with the QC30 (store sample pair) and my old QC20 today. Overall, the sound is quite similar, with the following differences: - QC30 is noticeably bassier than the QC20. Bass is quite exaggerated but relatively controlled for the quantity and there is minimal bleed into...

I've had experience with many different IEMs, including Sennheiser IE8/80/800, NuForce Primo, Cosmic Ears CE4P, InEar StageDiver 2, and many others. To be honest, I've used mostly stock cables so far, so I'd love to win one of these and be enlightened regarding the sonic improvements of premium...

I wonder if it would be worth it to get a pair of these as an upgrade to my HD600... but I probably wouldn't get anywhere close to $200 if I were to sell my HD600.

Really excited about these! I love the QC20 but the wires and the dongle thingie containing the NC and amp circuitry keep getting in the way. Hopefully the QC30 will sound just as good, but without wires! Although I did pre-order the truly wireless Kanoa in-ears, which should ship in another...

A portable amp will improve sound quality and make the headphones go louder, but that won't increase the headphones' isolation from noise in your environment. Open back headphones are meant for use in quiet environments.

I listened to these QC35 at the Bose store and was reasonably impressed. Unfortunately, I couldn't compare them side-by-side with the QC25 using the same music, but from memory, the QC35 is less harsh (less spiky FR) in the lower treble, which would be an improvement. Can anyone chime in on this?

  I couldn't listen to them. Way too bright in the 5k region to the point of being painful. I think it's fit dependent (ear canal resonances) so YMMV.     Amazing deal. I remember getting them for $250 used. That was a few years ago though.

Too noisy. The HD600 are open headphones. You won't be able to hear your music properly without turning it up and hurting your ears.

I actually can't make it on the 28th  Have fun and please post pictures!

Shipping of the first batch of Kanoas has been delayed until June-July, unfortunately.

Sorry if this has been mentioned before, but what is the situation regarding parking? And how much should we be donating towards the expenses?

Count me in for now :)

Huh, didn't know that even existed. Thanks for the link. It's still a 4-hour round trip to the border though, so it's not worth it unless I'm going shopping in the US... not likely with the current exchange rate :(

Mmm that steak looks amazing... Of the girls in that show, Victoria Justice is the only one who's my type. Ariana sure could sing though!

    That is indeed an insane deal! If anyone in the US is interested in ordering an extra pair, I would be willing to buy it from you at cost.

They don't seem to be a scam - they were at CES and a prototype has been reviewed on cnet (http://www.cnet.com/news/earin-kanoa-wireless-bluetooth-earbuds/). They are sending email updates once in a while on their progress, and everything seems to be on track.

Would love to try this out. Where does this fit in Fiio's lineup in terms of sound quality?

From what I've been reading, the consensus seems to be that the DA8 is slightly warm and very smooth, whereas the HA-1 is on the analytical side with a bit of roughness to the treble. I ended up getting  the DA-8 and am very happy with it.

What's wrong with a girl with money? If she's willing to date a broke dude like me, I'm not gonna complain  

I do prefer the sound of open headphones because they sound more spacious and natural with much better timbre and soundstage. However in my experience closed headphones do give the subjective impression of greater detail. Perhaps this is because they block out any background noise, even if it's...

I think you can argue that the MSR-7 will sound more detailed than the R70x simply by virtue of the fact that it's a closed headphone, so all else being equal, details will sound more obvious compared to an open headphone with similar resolving power. Not to speak of the more analytical sound...
