Why is it that my apple store only sells Beats and Bose and some other cheap brands. I have NEVER seen a Sennheiser or any audiophile brand.

It might be due to sponsorship, where audiophile companies wouldn't want to waste their time and money on Crapple:)
 
Not to mention, the amount of lawyers they'll have to also pay for before coming up to Apple and asking to sell their products in their store.

YKYAA when you walk into an Apple shop... Not to buy iPhone...nor iPod or iPad. It's to test AudioEngine A5+. Sound pretty good! Still can't justify the instrumental separation though

 
  Or to test momentums,amperiors, and other non beats stuff. But eventually try them on anyway to laugh at them.

 
You guys are lucky. My local Apple store doesn't have any headphones on demo. They do have some Beats/Bose connected to their iDevice demos though.

Well, I was supposed to test the Klosch Promedia 2.1 Speaker as well but unfortunately, the demo speaker broke. Then I went for the Parrot Zik... The headphone driver broke... I really wonder why that shop still have it on demo and who breaks some good stuff or is it they do not know how to appriciate free demo/audio gears

came out pretty disappointed

I plugged in the Bose AE2, not going to lie... They sound bad to my ears! Sitting next to it was Beats Solo HD... Don't even feel like trying it anymore after all the faulty display unit :/

There's no Sennheiser headphones here as well hehe but I was really impressed by the A5+ speaker! If only they sell it for $300++ instead of $500+ [Converted US dollar]

It seems as though all the headphones: Beats, Momentums, Skullcandy and the Sony MDR1 are all broken in the HMV near me.. In fact both of the HMVs.

YKYAA when you know that 32 bit audio offers no advantages over 16 bit audio.  Higher frequency files are debatable but have fun with your 384kHz files.
 
That stax cake is amazing too.
