    Received.

    A little confused about one set of pads though. The angled pads, one of them has a more round opening than the other which is a little more oval.

    @zach915m is this variance normal?

    The pads are die cut but they are hand stitched, so we go through the process of matching them via measurements before they go out with each headphone.

    Also after they are used and taken on and off the headphone a number of times the leather can get stretched. You can remedy this by using a hairdryer and giving it a "fluff."

    Likely in this case its the ladder, but regardless the pads were matched and measured so whatever is causing the variance it shouldn't affect usability.

    If you all want to have a mini-meet or pass the loaner around, then I'll grant an extension as long as other tour members and I am kept in the loop. I just don't want situations like this to turn into excuses for members to keep the loaners for a long time.

    @ColtMrFire I'll say 10 days for now.

    @ChaChaRealSmooth

    Sorry to be a bit of a knob.... any way we can get a few extra days? I am actually having a tough time formulating a review in time. I was set to hand them off to famish Sunday but I'm working crazy hours all weekend and need to catch a breath before I review them and have only been able to listen since Thursday night.

    Take 14 days. I see it as fairly reasonable considering there are 4 members in your area.

    That being stated, I do want to also be fair to other members here.

    @ColtMrFire - Dude, WTF? Keeping a loaner HP for weeks at a time? Not cool...


    Just kidding! As the next person on the list I'm in no rush and am traveling for work so much over the next few weeks that this actually works better. Cheers and enjoy

    If a Verite ever comes up again as a loaner, I’d love to hear it, since all I’ve read about it is overwhelmingly positive. I’d be more than happy to pose in whatever garment specified with a current WSJ and my eye eye’d, buck toothed, very talkative trilling (I never knew that was a thing) cat (whose balance, coordination & skills typically cat-like are terrible) that my girlfriend wore me down into adopting, that I now love and treat like she’s my buddy. 2 years in, I’m still searching for a way to adequately cope with my cat allergy... Didn't think I’d ever say this... Worth it.
