    I've already owned the Borealis, but would like to join if there's a Australis loaner!

    If you want to send them my way I can measure them with a few dozen pad types, could be cool to find one with a little more low mids and a little less mid-treble, which were really my only criticisms with them when I heard them briefly with brencho.

    I'm in. Happy to be close to E_Schaaf or Clem. They don't live far and are an easy pick-up / drop-off.

    @ChaChaRealSmooth move me last on the list. It would be weird to have the loaner shipped from OH to FL then back up to New England when OH is closer to New England (@JoshMorr is in ME BTW, not MN).

    YMO - you just killed one of the longest running silent subplots of my SBAF feed. Chacha has been abbreviating Maine as MN for a couple years to my great delight. Well, we had a good run

    Shipped to @PTS and dropped in 2 extra types of pads. ETA 12/1 or 12/2. One is a PITA to put on but it measured well. The ones I left on the headphones are my fav of the 25 I tried. Stock pads are in there too of course.
