mmm......not really. At the very least, the perp(s) can............(gasp!!)......sell the stolen set as junk parts. 50 bucks for the metal etc.....the rest of the loot is as good as sold (specially the 4 HDVD 800). It is much more marketable.

I personally think it would be completely idiotic to be sad for a big company that has the money to make hundreds of those headphones if they wanted to. This is simply good advertisement for them, now more people get to know that the company that made their 20$ headphones in China, also makes some actually good products.
I'm sad for the people who won't get to hear Orpheus because of this.
Some people totally miss the point, don't they guys?
Unless this guy is some kind of a cleptomaniac, himself, and wants to justify his habit somehow. JUST KIDDING, lmao.

So sad to hear this news. Hope it doesn't hurt future Senn product showings. Scumbags!
I left a $1500.00 camera with a $1000.00 lens on my motorcyce seat in Sturgis with thousands of "Bikers" walking around for about an hour till I noticed. Nobody touched them.

Thanks for sharing.
Once I left a hundred dollar bill next to my dog Cujo. Likewise, nobody touched it...
Hmmm.. the plot thickens...

That does not real surprise me. Sturgist and its bikers seem to have a honour system and stuff usually does not disappear. The same try of honour code happens at mountain man gatherings. I was at one and was told to leave my modern bag next to the main totem pole, I did, and at the end of the day nothing was taken. Its hard to get such a bond at a hotel.

Not about the camera or lens though, it's how you use it

I agree with you. People like that have this misguided notion that it is morally wrong to be successful and something terrible should happen because of that. He might be a kleptomaniac but most likely he is just trying to conceal his frustration with lack of success in life.

There is a seller on eBay who has sold 2 Orpheus Headphones to date, and has another up for sale right now. Don't think he's the guy, but holy crap that is a lot of Orpheus sales. He's also sold multiple of the Orpheus amp independently. Former Sennheiser high end dealer in Poland?

I would steal but only if I couldn't afford eating otherwise.
Now let's get back to the Orpheus thief, should we give him some advice on where to sell that thing if he happens to read head-fi? I would return it to a museum or something.

Why isn't security a fixture at CanJams? Checking badges and ingress-egress?

Probably because they're not staged at convention center type settings, to my knowledge. Usually they're at hotel venues, and with space limitations for secured fenced areas for cargo trailers and such. Don't know how they facilitate manned security though, they may just rely on using hotel staff security.
