Asr Posted March 22, 2011 Report Posted March 22, 2011 Really? Oh well. We still have Andy, Birgir, and Elephas to give us impression of the SR009 on their BHSE/T2 rig. CanJam@RMAF '11. Be there. You like speakers too, right? Quote
spritzer Posted March 22, 2011 Report Posted March 22, 2011 Guess I was bang on the money WRT to the MSRP. I have already had a set reserved for me so I better get cracking on the T2. As for the MSRP, there is virtually no inflation in Japan so prices remain pretty much static for years. The SR-Omega was 180KYen back in 1993 and the same can be said about the SR-007. It wasn't until the A was released that the price increased a bit. Now street prices are a different matter and since the SR-009 is likely to be in short supply for a while at least so prices should be close to the MSRP for a while at least. Quote
Craig Sawyers Posted March 23, 2011 Report Posted March 23, 2011 Well it make sense and it has been awhile since his last headphones related purchase. Also, anyone with BHSE & T2 is the prime candidate to try out the 009. I've got a BH (not SE) and a T2. Anyone want to buy me a pair of SR009's so I can tell you what they sound like? Quote
purk Posted March 23, 2011 Report Posted March 23, 2011 I've got a BH (not SE) and a T2. Anyone want to buy me a pair of SR009's so I can tell you what they sound like? We are hoping you will Here hoping the price of the OII will drop slightly with the SR009 craze! Quote
PFKMan23 Posted March 23, 2011 Report Posted March 23, 2011 (edited) Woo Audio has a thread on Head Fi about the SR009. retail price $5250 Edited March 23, 2011 by PFKMan23 Quote
livewire Posted March 23, 2011 Report Posted March 23, 2011 <<cough!>> I like the japanese pre-order price better. ~$4100 Quote
catscratch Posted March 23, 2011 Report Posted March 23, 2011 I'm getting it, though probably not right away. Should have saved up for a bit instead of messing with this DSLR tomfoolery. Still 5D Mk2/24-105L is so nice. Quote
padam Posted March 23, 2011 Report Posted March 23, 2011 In Thailand they did make a group buy on it but it is unknown how much discount they managed to squeeze (but it was less than 4000$). Quote
screaming oranges Posted March 23, 2011 Report Posted March 23, 2011 I'd be in for a group buy. Quote
monsieurguzel Posted March 23, 2011 Report Posted March 23, 2011 Heck, I'd be in for a group buy too. Plus it would help the confusion of having to buy something and importing it from Japan. Quote
Asr Posted March 23, 2011 Report Posted March 23, 2011 I'm scrambling to find dough to be in for a group buy. Quote
Voltron Posted March 23, 2011 Report Posted March 23, 2011 (edited) Where are you no. 3, Andy? And who is no. 1?! I want in on one of these, but I am not sure where/how. If anybody is able to school me I would appreciate it. Edited March 23, 2011 by Voltron Quote
screaming oranges Posted March 23, 2011 Report Posted March 23, 2011 I guess since I said I would be in for a group buy I am #1? I'm in the same boat as Voltron: need schooling. Quote
monsieurguzel Posted March 23, 2011 Report Posted March 23, 2011 Ehhhh, schooling is overrated I think what you really need is a good set of headphones. Quote
screaming oranges Posted March 24, 2011 Report Posted March 24, 2011 I have no idea how to make sense of what you just said. Quote
deepak Posted March 24, 2011 Report Posted March 24, 2011 edit: nvm missed last page of new posts Quote
screaming oranges Posted March 24, 2011 Report Posted March 24, 2011 But if it's doable and from a reputable dealer, why the hell not? Quote
blubliss Posted March 24, 2011 Report Posted March 24, 2011 Yeah, but it is worth a shot and Birgir can confirm or deny. Looks like we have 4 here so far? Quote
blubliss Posted March 24, 2011 Report Posted March 24, 2011 (edited) How do we find a dealer? Ooooh look at me driving up my post count, doh Edited March 24, 2011 by blubliss Quote
tyrion Posted March 24, 2011 Report Posted March 24, 2011 I plan to buy Mike's used pair Good luck with that. Quote
catscratch Posted March 24, 2011 Report Posted March 24, 2011 If it's less than $4k I may be in too. I'll have to check and get back to you. Quote
