    Visions Electronics has the NAD HP50 on sale for $108, 67% off. I ordered one online and it arrived within a day of shipping out - seems their warehouse is in Winnipeg. I had to wrestle a bit to get a proper seal, and I'm not sold on the comfort yet, but wow, they sound really good. Amazing...

    Yeah, the HD280 Pro is pretty good, and has great isolation. My dad uses it when driving the tractor. Beyer DT770 Pro would be worth listening to at Long & McQuade, but it's a bit more $$.

    I've had Behringer Truths for like 17 years. I've been mostly really happy with them, and they image really well. I had to replace a capacitor on one, and every now and then there is a nasty RF interference buzz, so YMMV. But 17 years, that's pretty good I'd say.

    Sleep? That's the easy part. It gets better pretty quickly. I'm not sure if you've been made aware, but you are going to be dealing with human feces for at least the next 4 years, and that's only if you're done having kids. And, do people still say "sorry about your wallet" around here? Because...

    Oppo PM-1 for sale by someone in Brandon. I'm not sure if it's a good price, but it seems to be well below retail. http://www.ebrandon.ca/ItemView.aspx?item_id=1979699&cat_id=46 I live near Brandon and I could be a mule if anyone wants to buy these. My fee would be that I get to listen to...

    Hey guys, not headphone related, but I'm promoting a sick metal show at the Park Theatre on November 13. Ne Obliviscaris (Australia) with support from Allegaeon (USA) and locals Mortalis. If you want to see some of the best musicians in the world play ridiculously intense music, come on down...

    Thanks for the invite! I don't think I'll be able to make it to Winnipeg that day, but you never know!

    Not sure if it's still there, but there was a px-100 on Kijiji for $20 a few days ago.

    Did you guys see that Massdrop are selling Sennheiser HD6xx (with 650 drivers) for $200 USD? Pretty much a no-brainer IMO.   However, they ship with a courier I think, so you might want to get them sent to a US address or eat some heavy brokerage fees at the border.   *edit: I see that it's...

    Thanks for the poke, I'll try to come to the meet! Not sure if I have any gear you haven't already heard a million times before, but I could probably bring my hd600 and Millet MAX if anyone wants. I'll be in town for a concert the night before. If anyone is into metal, Fleshgod Apocalypse...

    Just noticed this Yamaha HP-1 for sale in Winnipeg. If I were still buying headphones I'd be all over this. http://m.kijiji.ca/pro-audio-recording/winnipeg/yamaha-hp-1-orthodynamic-headphones-1970s/v?adId=1162583182&ck=CK&from=Search&ts=1462933684735
