Southern Calif and I need to find someplace else. So Cal sucks in almost every way.
I assumed you lived in Southern California. I meant what area of So Cal. North OC? South OC? Santa Ana? Irvine? Laguna Beach? Newport Beach?

How about Best buy? They have free shipping if you spend I think it was about $35. If you return in-store it's free with no restock within 15 days. Just don't return too much since they work with a return filing company and record you ID, where you might get banned from returns at any participating stores.
Me thinks not. I'd get to try one pair only and will not get a refund if ordered on-line and returned to a store. Besides, all they carry is Beats anyway. No thanks.
Best Buy surprisingly has a quite few high end models from Sennheiser like the HD558 and HD598. If you do a few returns, you should have no issue with returns. They ban people that abuse their return policy or return too often.
Try checking with the big Guitar stores if they have any open headphones to demo like Guitar Center/Sam Ash.
My friend, I'm hearing a lot of whine. The world isn't perfect, nor is it made for your pleasure. We all take our chances when we purchase products. Sometimes it works out and sometimes it doesn't. As a life-long California resident that has traveled extensively to all parts of the USA, I wouldn't live anywhere else - even if it means I have to buy my headphones without trying them on first.
I once heard the statement : "If you can't find it in Orange County you probably can't find it anywhere."
My friend, you are just not willing to look. You will be able to demo virtually anything you desire at CanJam. If you are unwilling to go, then that is your loss.
