Here's the current list:

It will take off from @Erroneous (thank you for helping me make the list, I am not as well versed about US geography that much!)

Shipping out to @M3NTAL tomorrow morning to kick off the tour!

Also there's a non-stock XLR cable from @CEE TEE and a stock 1/4" cable from me that travel with the headphones.

 

Package received from @Erroneous

The box looks like drugs from South of the border... a bit stepped on. Luckily though, the headphones were wrapped well and there is no damage.

First impression after pulling them out of the box was "dang, these are sturdy" - the ear capsules are well dampened.

Currently warming up the gear before going down the wormhole.

 

@M3NTAL If you have an appropriate replacement box you could use, that would be amazing and much appreciated.

 

Already planned on it.

That Digi-Key box is like a hooker in the hood... beat

 

A bit late, but I’d be interested in a EU loaner, too. Also in the JAR600B.

Germany.

 

@ext1 May I jump aboard this tour? I’m in Chicago, IL.

I’m participating in the JAR600 and JAR800 tours, so I’m looking forward to comparing.

 

Got you added!

Thanks! I’m not sure why you couldn’t edit the earlier post. I’ve always been able to edit my own posts. Maybe a moderator can weigh in.

 

I'd love to join this tour. I am in no hurry, in Maine, and have a stock HD650 for comparison.

 

If slots available I would love to join

Long Island, NY

 

I have a v1 and would love to hear the new version if this is open to Contributors. I'm in Los Angeles.

 

I was going to hold off on this loaner, but am enjoying my JAR650 v1 so much I can't resist. If you are accepting more participants, I would like to join. Baltimore, MD.

 

OK! Let me just figure out the geography!

Also as this is getting to be a really long loaner, and since B-version mod is a little more delicate than the OG version, I'm a little concerned about the cans surviving the tour in one piece and the sound quality deteriorating together with the pads.

So please, for those up on the front of the queue, please make sure the folks on the later end of the queue can enjoy it the same way you enjoy it by treating this kiddo well!

For those at the later end- the pads will deteriorate from person to person even if people are careful with the cans in general, so please keep that in mind. You might not hear something the same way as the previous guys, this has happened to the very old OG tour from like around 2020. If something about the cans don't look right, let me know.

 

OK, I have been told this is da wae:

Thank you! I don't really see the edit button still, I only see report, post #, quote, and reply- maybe I'm blind. Thank you still for the edit to the first post!

 

Package received from @M3NTAL, everything looks good! Will leave impressions soon. @Northwest, please PM me your info.

 

I will message in just a moment. It's been a while since the last loaner I was a part of. I'm rereading the thread I wanted to make sure I didn't miss anything. I don't see any mention for a loaner time.

 

Sorry, I missed the list update - looks like I'm sending to @bigjako next, then he sends to @Northwest. I'll forward on the info.
