Anyone know of any stores in the Chicagoland area that would let you try Audiofile/HiFi headphones? Want to make sure I really love the audio before shelling out up to $1600 for just the headphones. Thanks!

Maybe this store. https://www.musicdirect.com/. I purchased open box speakers from them online, experience was great.

Try the Axpona event. They have a huge headphone area and you can try just about every flavor of headphone in an afternoon.

April 14-16 in Schaumburg I believe

I was here the other day. I thought it was just a store you can go in but it's not. You have to make an appointment, they did let me in when I called on the curb and let me buy the poly I was after. Very nice folks. I'll definitely order from them from now on if they have something I'm after. I'm not sure if they let you audition equipment or not.
