Stumbled across this when browsing the jps labs website and thought it my duty to bring it to the attention of the forum.

Looks like an interesting development. I emailed jps but they are reluctant to divulge any further info and told me to keep an eye on the website.

Yeah, along with price and release date, but they are tight lipped.

To be honest i'm suprised that jps haven't produced headphone cables, instead jumping into headphones with their cable.

Thanks for this link!!!! Sounds like a new thin diaphragm ortho. Watching with extreme interest.popcorn.gif If you look closely through the spider web you can see traces of the diaphragm.

Interesting! Another competitor in the increasing planar headphone market. When will Sennheiser join in?

The website gives hardly any info.  You think these will be priced similar to the he400s or some outrageous price like the audeze?

Umm, not really. I gave up my fave headphones because I was tired of the heat buildup and stickiness of the pads. I will never get pleather/leather ever again. Velour or no go.

I live in the Florida heat. If I lived up north during winter, maybe.

Intriguing, but so light on details that it's hard to really get excited just yet.

The mention of "hand-made wooden case" and "including headphone stand" makes me think it will be expensive.

Looks like it can be expensive.  

 

Special cables from JPS labs $$ Leather lambskin ear pads $$$   I also though I read some where they include a headphone stand and a wooden case = $$$$.
