Hello,
I thought CP members might like to find out about some new headphones a day before the rest of the world:

    That's some good looking gear coming out, couple of things in that bunch that I'll be looking at.

    Heck yeah, those look QUITE nice. I might have to pick up a pair. I liked the over the ear Polks I auditioned minus the noise cancelling part.

    I might pick a set or two or three of these up for me and my wife! :biggrin:.

    Thanks for the "advance" notice Ken!

    Hinge? Look too much like the Dre's!

    Buckle, more interesting at that price point.

    Not a fan of "in ear" phones. Cans of "last resort". But "youngsters" love them. Maybe my "daughter", she's a teenager?

    I think the most interesting product here is the Woodbourne (depending on how it "sounds"). That's a spot that has a lot of competition and most of the products in that class kinda suck, IMHO! Hopefully, Polk has a winner. Now where are the Lady Gaga AD blitzes!!!!! Need a spokesperson to make Polk cool?

    Thanks for the heads up. Curious to hear how they sound. Especially interested in the Hinge and the Nu Voe's. Just in time for Xmas, I'll probably give them a whirl.

    Any plans for an open backed headphone with velour (or something very comfy) pads?
