Meh, facts be facts (you were there and there is nowhere else in Australia you could have tried the Abyss) and all power to A2A for being probably the only retailer of its kind if Australia where you have lots of proper headphone gear to audition and buy at non rip-off prices. Btw, in case I didn't already mention it - thanks for the nice review posted OP.

Yeah, iirc from my last chat with George, they were bringing in 3 of the Cavalli Audio amps as well as the GS-X Mk2 over the next few months.

Using the very valid logic of these two quotes combined, I struggle to see where JPS is trying to land this headphone. Needless to say the next time I'm in, I'd love to try the Abyss for myself and compare it to the HD800 and LCD3 as I'm very familiar with both of their sound signatures.
Hahaha, yes indeed. I didn't want it to sound like an advertisement for A2A (so I was careful not to mention where I tried them out) because the purposes of this was for the Abyss, but props to the guys over at A2A. They're pretty awesome.

Yes, they are planning on selling them. You should head in after your exams to have a listen.

If a direct competitor to the LCD-3s, why all the 800 references? From a price comparison, the 9s would be the natural comparison but since the 800 seems to have it bested, why bother?

That's true. I want whatever the guys at JPS were smoking when they decided to come with up with the current price tag.
