    I believe we've previously had the JAR HD650 out for loaner. This loaner will have both the HD600 and HD650 in the same box out for loaner, both JAR modded. The HD650 will have the latest charcoal foam (see the post here; either @ext1 or @Hands or someone else can correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe all of the latest JAR 650s ship with this foam).

    Included in the loaner will be the stock SE cable. I'll throw in a balanced cable for those that have need of it.

    Also included will be some extra double-sided tape. This tape is used to hold the little plastic pieces that hold the foam in. It's kind of gummy and a little bit of a pain in the ass to peel the backings off of, but works very well. The reason why this is being included is to allow people to roll the foam; i.e. the foam in the HD600 can be transferred over to the HD650 for a different sound, or vice versa, or you can try undamped (some really like this). Just please make sure you stick the foam pieces back on with the included tape if the tape looses its adhesive properties.

    Standard rules apply:
    • Friends/high contributors only
    • UPS/FedEx only, insure to $300
    • Impressions required

    I'm interested! I'm in Berkeley, CA.

    If I'm accepted into the loaner, do you think you could sign me up sometime for later february/early march? That's when I'll (hopefully) be receiving my 3F and will be able to make comparisons with my verite closed and focal clear then.

    P.S. I was hoping to save my 100th post for something bigger/grander than a loaner signup (e.g. 3F impressions), but alas...

    Very interested! Columbus, OH

    Have been on the fence to purchase the JAR650 a few times... wanted to hear first,

    Luckily also have both stock 600/650 to compare to.

    Thanks for offering this loaner!

    We're actually working on a way to ship loaners to Canada. I'll post a thread in the near future asking some fellow Canadian members for their input on how the process will go.

    If we can get this sorted I'll put you in on this loaner.

    Given the admiration here, and the fact that I've never heard either of these, I'd like to join this as well.
    BAL cable appreciated.

    @ChaChaRealSmooth since I'm middle of moving apartments, can you put me under @Ntbm3? Feels weird to send the goods to MN, then to the South, them back up to the Midwest. Thanks!

    Oops, I missed these posts while traveling so didn't know there was Canadian interest (sorry Matt). If too late for this loaner, I'm still good to go as discussed for subsequent ones if it's acceptable to you guys.
