So basically any country that is not the US is currently denied, right? Hmm, what about Hawaii & Alaska?

International Ordering...
The plan is for day one to only allow US (including Alaska and Hawaii) orders. Then as soon as we get all the shipping stuff figured out for International orders (hopefully in a couple days) worked out we will enable international orders as well. Thanks for the all the great feedback, keep it coming.....

I have been working on adding those throughout the site. We use to be waiting for the image sizes to get standardized, but now I have just been slow at implementing them.

Is anyone else having trouble reading the bars on the right? I lowered my resolution a notch (to 1024X768) and I am still having trouble reading them. At anything higher its imposible to read.
Other than that everything works fine. Checkout process went smoothly (even caught bad info I tried to enter on the registration screen), but I hope that the checkout is going to be encrypted, and if it already is it sure isn't showing up that way on my computer. Not that I'll ever be able to aford anything from yall, but at least I'll know the web page works
Oh, and you need a custom 404 error message, something to the effect of "some say listening to headphones while designing web sites results in more 404 errors, looks like they were right."

The new site is really nice, but I have one complaint: The navigation links on the left side of the page should be in their own frame. When I got done browsing through the headphone list and picking out everything that I wanted, I found it annoying to have to scroll all the way back up to the top of the page to click on the "Headphone Amplifier" section of the page.
I picked out everything I would order if I had enough money and it only came out to $24,000. Does that mean I don't get to count myself as an audiophile?

If there's one thing that annoys the hell out of me, it's independent frames. Please don't use them!

Well...I don't know if there's a way to do it without frames, but that headphone page is long! I really think it's pretty standard to keep navigation links available as much of the time as possible. But then again, I'm not a web designer and there's a good reason for that. I definitely found it inconvenient to have to go back up to the top of the page, though.
