Title says it all, would like to listen to a pair of these phones before I decide to purchase my future headphones. Looking at either the pro 750 or 900. I can not seem to locate any stores that carry the line on the island and do not feel like going into the city just to try out the headphones.

The AKG K270s are the classic, big huge studio headphones. There is little doubt if you see someone in these cans, they're tracking tasty licks on a new album. Despite their size, they do tend...

I'll keep this very short. They are very smooth sounding. Treble toned down so not so good for rock but have a magic about them that makes them better than mark 2. I use them with a '89/'90...

Bought these on whim, for your basic train ride to work I don't mind. But its far from being the best I have own.

First, I should note that I auditioned these both straight out of the box, without any break-in time and then later after 53 hours of break-in. Recent scientific studies have shown definite...

A very all-round headphone for me. Just the right one to take on the go or on holiday. Also as a DJ, nice noice isolation. Very durable so you don't have to wonder if it will break if you throw...

If you'd buy them if you like them, I think it's fine to buy from a (reputable) online dealer who offers a money
back guarantee - almost all of them do.
In most places around the country, it's very difficult to get a chance to listen to any higher end headphones.
Recognizing this, sellers (with the support of manufacturers) offer the opportunity do do so via selling with
a refund guarantee.
Personally, though, I wouldn't do this if I just wanted to 'listen' to a particular set of phones.
Only if I was ready to buy them if I liked them.
But YMMV.

Next time you're in the city check out Adorama. It's downtown not too far from Irving plaza. One and only time I was there they had a bunch of Ultrasones boxed (they have a pretty wide selection of headphones) but they definitely have way more in the back that's not on the floor. If you ask someone if they have a certain headphone (they would look it up first) and if you could try it, I'm sure they'd comply.
Otherwise check the fs forums here to get a nice used pair for less and if you don't like it sell it back here.
