Maybe I'll just ask my older sister for the SR-007 back, assuming my BHSE ever ships. Which is assuming a lot.

The wait will be worth it. Provided you do not die from old age first.

Even better, if you do get it while still alive, your hearing will have atrophied to the point where you'll be amazed you can hear anything! Never before did being able to hear to 4KHz sound so good!

Comfort is a huge factor for me these days, so if the HE-560 is as comfortable as the SR-009 with its new headband, I'm definitely keen on it.

It has a greater clamping force, so it doesn't quite achieve that trick of disappearing after a few minutes. Also it's a Hifiman, so you get the joy of tightening the cup connectors every other use. Otherwise it's great.

Ethan and Warren are some crazy dedicated dudes to be able to pull this one off. It was a great meet and I actually had a good time. The venue was excellent for getting some good impressions of gear. Thank you guys!

Thanks Marv, was totally happy to do it.  It was a good time, very chill.  I'm starting to really like venues with higher ceilings now too.
