For some time now I had been planning on going to Bay Bloor Radio to test out some headphones before taking the plunge and ordering a pair of HD-555's online.

Just my luck, BBR is closed on Sundays and I'm busy the rest of the week so I won't be able to make it there quite some time.

Is there anywhere else I can go to give the 555's (and other headphones) a test spin before I order? Because I'm afraid to fork over $150+ CDN on a pair of headphones that I haven't even heard yet (especially seeing as how I'm an SR60 guy and haven't had much experience with the Sennheiser sound).

Any suggestions?

Check out mytelus.com or your local phone book and call the high-end audio dealers to inquire if any are Senn dealers.

There are probably other shops that have a selection of Senn's, but Bay Bloor is the only place I know that has 15 or 20 phones hooked up and running all the time, so they are easy to compare and mostly burned in. Their prices are very high though. you could also try CPUsed, but your best price would be online/US/ used.
