    Congrats! I travel to Chicago often for work and wondered if I'd be able to fit these in the overhead bin...

    Yes lugging around two full sized speakers through the airport security, and then into the plane, over people's head into the bin wasn't going to be awkward and risky at all.

    Maybe that idea wasn't quite serious...

    But I did actually take a empty rolling suitcase on the train with me from Philly to NYC on a business trip many years ago and then filled it with an Acurus amp and CD player that I found on sale via Craigslist from someone near where I was meeting in midtown. Was quite a score!

    That was me. If you bought, you're welcome. (Thank you, Mr. Buyer.) Happy to see it go to an appreciative new listener.

    Noise for this topic, but since we're sharing stories ...

    I flew home from JFK to Taipei with my bro-in-law's used Rancillio Silvia and Rocky in a suitcase after he upgraded. TSA had dug a hole into my packing so they could identify the contents.

    A vote of confidence for Lee - he was one of the guys who went to my original SR1a "prototype audition" earlier this year at Canjam. Great guy and great headphones.
