I actually wasn’t aware of what happened, do you have any details? I actually met with the owners many years ago to talk about where they were in the development cycle.

Still have mine as well…though they don’t get the hours. Prefer over-ear open-backs when I can. These are still beautiful though.

Excited about his! Will definitely be there now that I live in LA.

I have a bunch of random stuff, though working in the industry can usually bring some gear for people to try.  Just enjoy getting to see everyone's setup!

Jude(If you're listening),    Love the site and what you are doing for the industry!     Had an idea borne out of some frustration with meet-ups.  Since they only happen once or twice a year in most areas, I don't always remember to check the sub-forum.  Because of this I've missed the last...

Oh man, looks like fun!  If I had known about this one I would have been there!  I'll have to try and keep a closer eye on the Meets section...

  I show that Sherman Oaks currently has 2 NIB units available.  None of the BBY stores have the XS on display, just boxed product.  Return policy is very liberal though, you have 15 days, longer if you are an Elite or Elite Plus member.  You can return them for any reason.  Just try to keep...

Congrats man!  Great headphones.

Looking a little sketchy, based on their site.  

Yeah, I suppose we do have different definitions.  That said, "boutique", by your definition, was gone the day they launched on Amazon...

They still are.  It's not like they're sitting next to Beats & Skullcandy.  They are in Magnolia, with B&W, Sennheiser and PSB...  

FYI...     https://www.facebook.com/VMODA/photos/a.343705018091.191634.106696703091/10152602839868092/?type=1&fref=nf

Father's day is a drive-time for headphones, so many manufacturers mark down their products around this time every year.  

    Are you trying to pop them?  

Has never been an updated P3 or P5, unless you count cosmetic upgrades.  Wasn't saying the P7 needs one.  Just letting you know, since you seemed concerned about it...

I wouldn't hold your breath on a cost reduction from B&W.  It will never happen.  The P5 is still $299!  No updated P7 coming any time soon though, so at least you have that going for you.  

There was a shortage across all dealers from launch to early March in the US.  They are now available in decent quantities around here.  I would assume you would see these in quantity in the great white north shortly after us.  So keep an eye out, I'm sure they'll have them soon.  

You mean next month?     Yeah, this thing has to be HUGE, in size.  

I have to disagree with you here.  Real leather and stainless steel are now considered "CRAZY chintzy"?  I love my M-100's, but in some ways they aren't as well built as the Momentums.  Wingplates and cracking cups, to be specific.  To date, there have been no similar build-quality issues with...

Shameless plug...     http://www.bestbuy.com/site/searchpage.jsp?_dyncharset=UTF-8&_dynSessConf=ATG20389927649&id=pcat17071&type=page&sc=Global&cp=1&nrp=15&sp=&qp=&list=n&iht=y&usc=All+Categories&ks=960&fs=saas&saas=saas&keys=keys&st=v-moda+XS

Not really steam punk as much as 70's retro.  

  I think some people were actually thinking that was the price, while it was at $1000.  Moving it up to $10M, makes it blatantly obvious that it's just a placeholder.  Personally, it was obvious at $1000, but there's always someone.

Due to the nature of the connector, it will not be moddable.  

I'm sure that Best Buy displays their policy in the store and prints it on the back of their receipt.  They would not be required to verbally inform you at the time of purchase though.  I don't know that I blame them.  Return rates on $199+ headphones are rather high.  Since they can't resell...

  If the best headphones you have found at Best Buy are Beats, you're shopping at the wrong Best Buy.  You should look for a Magnolia...  :)     Sorry, shameless plug.  FWIW, you can also buy V-MODA on BestBuy.com.
