QUOTE(CLF @ Oct 10 2011, 01:52 PM) tried 'em out at Sony Building the other day. this one? http://www.flickr.com/photos/anthonychen/279990846/ while the price's quite irresistible for 4 drivers, personally think that 3 drivers is enough. just briefled tried listen to them, didn't had a distinctive signature, or it's rather bland? need to audition them again when I got the chance.   must go tokyo in future... |

A lots of good stuff sell there not only anime. It's called Akihabara Electric Town not Akihabara Anime Town..
 Not sure still have or not but there is one shop the seller can speak Melayu (he is Japanese). This post has been edited by nordingh: Oct 18 2011, 11:54 AM |

Bad news, launch of the BA series will be delayed due to the flood in Thailand.

We don't have prices for the rest of Asia yet but these are the reference prices for Japan:
XBA-1: 7,455 yen (US$96) XBA-2: 18,375 yen (US$237) XBA-3: 24,675 yen (US$319) XBA-4: 30,979 yen (US$507) All models are available in "iP" versions and that cost about US$16 more. The XBA-series headphones should hit stores in Asia from November |

A slight update - XBA series is officially launching tomorrow in Malaysia. There will be a press event and you might read about it in the newspaper later. I got invited but unfortunately won't be able to be there.
