You just HAD to tease us with the Shure SRH1840s right at the end there, didn't you?
 
I'd also make a complaint about the lack of promised Tokyo Headphone Show coverage, but I think given the amount of content in this episode you can be forgiven. Now if someone would like to give me a couple of hundred thousand to spend, I have some shopping to do...

Tokyo coverage was initially planned to be included in this episode, but, as you can see, at over 18 minutes long, this episode ran too long to include Tokyo.
 
Don't worry, though, as Tokyo's up next. It was far too important an event and trip to not do an episode on, so we're definitely doing it. I've learned one lesson, though: do not say in the video what exactly is coming up in a specific episode--put it in the thread where it can be edited or updated.

I honestly cannot wait to see what Shure has pulled out of the bag with the SRH1840s. Definitely something to look forward to when they are released :D

That Apex amp looks kind of cool (Maybe coz it's one of the only things I can afford).

Hello Jude,
 
 
Did you ever review the LCD-2 and the Phonitor together?
 
-Thanks

Yes, but a quick Google search revealed many places have them for about $1500.

Maybe they have changed but Sennheiser used to protect the retail price and would drop a dealer from being able to sell them if they were sold for less than the retail price.  I know that was when they first came out but I hadn't heard anything had change.  Let's hope you can now discuss the price.

And then the Liquid Fire sold out the next day. 
 
It's next on my plate. :D
 
Surprised there was absolutely no Electrostat coverage...I think some people will be frustrated by that, but I enjoyed it. Looking forward to Tokyo...and the word on those Shures, you troll.
