I hear the HE-1000 are going to be very expensive. Some estimate Stax range. I hope not.

Count me in

Does anyone know where I can go to buy the new HiFiman 560 headphones anywhere in Southern California? I've searched everywhere online but no luck.

Thanks for all of the info. I'm doing tons of research right now and debating design and acoustics for the building room by room. My biggest drawback will be allowing for the listening of ultra high end headphones such as the Stax 009, or LCD-3 etc. How long before having to replace demo unit...

I definitely want to cater to low end as much as high end. My path to high-end came from constantly graduating to better products as I became aware to them. If I can get someone in the store looking for an adapter to their Beats, they might listen to a Senheiser or HiFiman and fall in love.

One of the most frustrating things for me (especially being relatively new to the audiophile world) is not being able to get my hands on something I begin to obsess on. But, most of all, not being able to physically demo the item (especially high end headphones) in a store near me. I recently...

I am intrigued about the HD 800's and will look into them. Not familiar with SPL Phoniyor, will look into it thanks.

I tried everything. I sent them back be ause Amaon won't just replace the cable. They have to refund it and I have to re-purchase it all over again. Does anybody know a physical storefront in or around orange county, CA where I can just go in and purchase them? Or do I have to Buy online all...

I use the HE-500 with the Asgard II and it sounds great. I didn't want to spend Lyr money since I was new to the whole thing. But the Asgaard is defiantly loud enough and has great range on high's mid's and low. So far I love the combo.

My naiveté is showing.  You would think a trusted seller from Amazon would have the exact same quality as the original. I thought Amazon would be considered the trusted seller.

I am so bummed out. Halfway into the burn-in process, the right side of my HE-500's just stop working. I switched around the left side cable to the right side and the earphone itself works just fine. It seems to be the cable, but there has been no trauma, no damage whatsoever to the cable, it...

Thanks for the info. The airplane trips are not the most important. I knew I couldn't only own the HE-500's because it's open back design is like mini speakers in a quiet place. Instead, I'm looking for headphones that will be used primarily in my home studio when auditioning orchestral music I...

I am new to the whole audiophile headphone world. After stumbling on a thread for Munito's new over ear cans which I had just purchased for home studio use, I read a simple comment that said "They're good headphones but not quite audiophile quality". Seeing as they had been the best headphones...
