I recently join in head-fi community. To be honest, I haven't spent any serious money on head gear up until now. Because I already have a pretty decent Hi-Fi system setup at home for years.
But recently, I become a new Dad. I can't turn up my B&W speakers with full power any more. So I ripped all my CD albums into ALAC, bought a Fiio and HD600, tried to find a new way to survive with my hobby.
One problem I don't get used to is that it is very difficult to find a physical store that I can test head gear personally. Reading review online is fine. But I don't believe what fits other fits me as well. Most of times, the reviews contradicts to each other. It is hard to make a buying decision by reading others' review without personal testing.
Pardon me my long background introduction and wrote a post at 4AM. My boy just woke me up.
My question is that where can I find a online store that provide a sample for testing before I make a final buying decision. I know Amazon can have a hazel-free return. But they only sell very limited number of head-fi gear. I'd appreciate if anyone share their own experiences.
