Sad but a possible name for them. I can't see why the two would merging. Cavalli is highly overpriced while some Schitt(s) can be quite a good value.

Have a wonderful birthday Tom! We sure miss you down here in Atlanta.

i didn't not forget and not all Chinese companies are bad and greedy here. I am just afraid that Stax will soon follow Hifiman's business model and start overcharging the consumer given Hifiman is getting away with it. I don't think the new Stax flagship headphones will be priced under 6k.

Stax saw what Hifiman is doing to a highend headphones market, thus, they decide to do the same. I really hope their new flagship will not be over 10K.

only $8,000.

Thinking about doing it to. Is the $150 a flat cost plus one way shipping?

I had the Yggy & M51 side by side and it was an easy victory for Yggy in my system.

Nope, a friend of mind is a headphones tester for Dan...so I always get to hear his prototype. Same shape....more of a semi-open headphones.

Have a great birthday!

Happy birthday!

I heard both Aeon closed and prototype open today. The closed is really a nice sounding headphones beside its rather limited sense of soundstage. The open is still in a work in progress but is very promising.

I think the HD800S is but not the classic.

Tyll really need to hear the HD800 out of the Doug's ECP L3. He probably put it back on a HOF and then some.

I think we both value other things such as sense of space and imaging just as much as tonal balanced. Still for the price it is a good buy.

They are not bad and well priced. I heard the closed version before and the weakness is rather boxy soundstage but over all a good sounding closed headphone. For the price, it is a good buy. I believe he is working on the open version of these.
