Thank you all for the replies. This is simply a loan program, nothing is exchanging hands or being traded. She;s simply going to listen to them and then ship them back to us. I'm trying to minimize customs fees and if any taxes. I'll be shipping my hd-580's to someone in the states and then...

A friend and I are going to be shipping a pair of headphones, amd and dac from the USA to anohter friend in Canada for her to give them a listen. He;s on the east coast, I'm in the mid-west, she's in BC. What would be the best,safest way to insure no, or little custon fee's or taxes?Nothing...

I don't have any experience with anyone being autistic, but from what I know, and my own symptoms from brain injury I would think what "type" of headphone would depend on whatever the student will be able to tolerate wearing. Then the strong possibility channel separation will be as big of a...

Good luck getting it starightened out. Looking forward to hearing what you think of it.

If you like the Senn sound I'd go ahead and upgrade to HD580,600,650 and enjoy those out of your soundcard until they get well broken in before getting an amp.

I'd bet a vital body part, that any Solo is not discrete... ok, let me save something.... at least up until the SRG. I say this cause I think the Novo , up until that point, is the only discrete up until then.

Every since my review, I have been thinking how best to describe the difference between the Green and SRG Solo's that I heard with my ears, my gear and only having my HD-580's to use, also having never heard any other headphone gear. Not to mention my short, but sweet time listening to it.Now...

Thanks to Miguel for the loan of the SRG, and thanks to Gradofan2 for cutting his time short to squeeze me in. I'm really glad I got the chance to compare the Green Solo with the SRG/PSU-1 combo. I also compared the smsp wallwart with the PSU-1 on my Green Solo. Let me preface this with I...
