My ears rub against the rough foam... it hurts

After months of searching I finally bought: Attachment 6357 Ain't she a beauty?

Me, today! I received it after 7 months Could not be happier. Compared to my Headsix this thing controls my Denon 5000s better, it does not sound strained at all. Quick edit: It's too easy to listen to too loud volumes with this, not any distortion (not that I expected there to be either)

Hello again. You gave me such great vacation advice the last time I posted, so I hope it's okay that I take adavantage of your kindness once again As mentioned earlier, my wife and I will be spending 18 days in California in July. Most of the time will be spent in Los Angeles, San Diego...

It was Sound Company... but I guess 10% seems right, it's about the same rebate as headphone.com gives. Do you know if Stereo Unlimited have the RS-1s in stock?

... I got a mail from a San Diego dealer, telling me that the "normal" price is $695. I guess this is an open invitation to ask for a discount. Any opinions on what I should offer?

Heh, wrong link I think, but you're probably thiking of the same "headphones in LA"-thread that I read earlier. The problem is that I would like to confirm a stock or RS-1's before I arrive... but, anyways... does ttvj ship to hotels? Many stores that I have checked need a standard...

The zoo is one of our main attractions in SD, but, trying to be a treehugging vegetarian, I need to stay away from the bullfights.

Hi, I am revisiting the topic of Grados in Los Angeles. I have seen it mentioned in other threads, but I have found no confirmation of stores in LA that actually have a decent range of Grados. Can anyone recommend a store that stocks the RS-1's? Thank You!

I just got a US road map, and I wish we were spending more than 16 days in south California... so many places to drive! It actually has a large are marked with "Asbestos Hazard Area"... fascinating!

We are fairly decided on 4. of July in San Diego now, but I have a couple of other questions... I have two purchases that I would like to make. In San Diego I "need" to buy an Asus eee 900, as I will not take my job laptop with me. Can you reccomend a good computer retailer? And...

I don't get it... when do I have to move my cursor? Edit: Oh, I got it now.

Hi guys, wow, thanks for all the response and suggestions. (Nighttime in Norway when I posted my last reply). I'll read through it all with the wife later today and start making some plans. LA is really important for her, she's a real film buff, so we are going to spend some days there...
