place to demo headphones in Washington DC
I tried the Shure and Klipsch lines alongside the Etymotic. (Yes Frank gives you several tips to try them all!) and the etymotics just took the cake. The hf3's ($179) are superb, so easy to get in and are invisible in my ears. I was on the metro this morning and listened to music at 3 notches...- Geofram

I ended up with the Etymotic hf3's for me iPhone, and the Grado's sr125's as my mobile/secondary/guest pair in my laptop bag. I'm using a pair of the Beyer dt990's with my Xonar Essence ST, which sadly Frank doesn't carry any of the Beyers, but I definitely got a feel for what I wanted out...- Geofram

Final Decision: Make Sure I'm Not Crazy!
Right now I'm watching movies, listening to music (dubstep + folk + hip hop,) and playing games on a pair of broken Bose OE headphones out of a cheap creative sound card. After about a month of reading, I think I want to do all these things through a pair of DT990's powered by an Asus...- Geofram

just talmed to frank over at ear-head. meeting with him next friday. he doesnt carry all brands because he only sells what he listens to himself.

Where to buy DT770 Pro 80's?
They are only ever going to be driven by an Asus Xonar Essence ST. I suppose the 250 ohm version would behave the same way as the 80 if properly driven?- Geofram

Unfortunately that's not the same model. The Pro version has openings on the side for better bass but less isolation and also velour padding. Thank you just the same.- Geofram

Where to buy DT770 Pro 80's?
I'm really not interested in used products. I like warranties, customer service, and sealed boxes. There are two new pairs on ebay, at a great price, but I'm just not comfortable with it. I've had experience with fake, stolen, and refurbished goods that I want to avoid with an important...- Geofram
