It's close to Disneyland?

All kinds of variable exotic restaurants (like Mexican and Vietnamese foods, etc...). :wink:

Buy her a day pass at the day spa, while you hunt for headphones.

You need to phrase it not Irvine is the place to be but Newport beach or Laguna Beach is the place to be. Sounds so much more appealing. What does she like to do? It's probably available within a 30 minute radius.

All brilliant and commendable suggestions!!

Trying desperately to get my wife to believe that Irvine in June is THE PLACE to go for a three day weekend!
Any suggestions?

Disneyland.

Will the HE 1 be here this time as well? I missed it last time, don't want to miss it this time as well.

CanJam SoCal 2019 Attendees! Register here to experience the Sennheiser HE 1 - the legendary Orpheus - Reborn! Listening slots are available on a first come first serve basis, and please note that one listening slot is allowed per registered CanJam attendee. You will need to have already purchased your ticket for CanJam SoCal 2019 and you will need to input your ticket number in the form. CanJam SoCal Volunteers can input "Volunteer" in this field.

The HE 1 will be in a private (and quiet) room, called Berkeley, on Level 1 right outside the main CanJam SoCal exhibit space. Listening sessions are limited to the provided music source and external sources will not be allowed. Sennheiser will also be demonstrating the new AMBEO soundbar every hour for the final 15 minutes of each hour (from 10:45-11:00, etc...). This will be an open demo and no registration is required.

Not trying to be a killjoy here, but it's disappointing that Sennheiser still aren't letting us use our own sources with the HE1 - at least via a common streaming platform. It's impossible to make comparisons against unfamiliar sources you have no control over, with no possibility of even a basic A/B comparison. Two years ago Sennheiser did at least try to get Tidal working. You'd think they'd have had enough time in between to figure that out? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

We understand how to do these things. Our goal is to maximize listening time AND to provide high-quality tracks with superb mastering. To achieve that, and also to avoid the ever possible issues of poor internet connectivity, worn/shorted interconnects and damage, we are sticking with a controlled experience for our very best performing product. Think of the demo as a concert performance... we’ve worked hard to conduct the experience for you!

Thank you for considering our present stance. We want everyone to have an excellent experience!
