[size=large]Announcing HeadRoom's All-New Website--Get Your Sneak Preview Here! Enjoy A 15% Discount Through October 10th![/size]







Dear Head-Fi Community Members,

I’m very excited to give you an update about HeadRoom. Call this a special “Head-Fi press release.” Within the next week, we will be relaunching our website. You may remember that we made some changes to our home page back in March of this year. This time, we tackled the entire site and backed our efforts with some great external resources. You’ll notice several things with the relaunch of our site: a new look and feel, new retail products, and hopefully an easier and more seamless shopping experience.

As we redesigned our site, we looked to strike a balance of having customers still recognize HeadRoom; being e-commerce friendly and inviting to anyone who comes to our site and wants to buy personal audio gear; and, still appealing to enthusiasts who want to sink their teeth into some beefy technical commentary. We think that newbies and experts alike will appreciate the easy-to-navigate menus, product information readily at hand, and enhanced sorting options, along with many other great new features. Also, you won’t want to miss our new blog spot “Right Between Your Ears,” featuring our founder, Tyll Hertsens.

You’ll see new brands like Sony, Skullcandy, Monster and Boston Acoustics, and new product categories like iPod/iPhone docks and headsets, coming on board at the time of the launch. We will still evaluate products carefully and sell those products that truly offer value to our customers. Value, however, means different things to different people. For many, sound quality trumps all; for others, style or application tops the list. In any case, we want to help them get it “right between their ears.”

So, in connection with the launch of our new site and CanJam @ RMAF, we are offering a special 15% call-in, promotional discount to Head-Fi’ers on select products from now through October 10th. We hope you’ll take advantage of the opportunity to peruse our new site and get great savings on the gear you’re looking for. If you’ll be at RMAF, please stop by our tables in the CanJam room to say hello and have a listen to our set of BALANCED Ultrasone Edition 8s!

Thanks for your support of HeadRoom!

Sincerely,
Travis Waller, CEO

Hi All,

Just wanted to say we plan on bringing in LOTS of cool new brands at HeadRoom in the next few months -- some 'big boys' and also some of the smaller, more unknown makers -- and, as Ivy said, your suggestions are always welcome. We're really stoked about our upcoming HeadRoom expansion and we hope our fresh website reflects our commitment and passion for all things headphone & personal audio!

See you all at the Can-Jam Suite in Denver RMAF this weekend!

Cheers,

Jorge
HR Sales/Product Manager
