Hi all,

I am currently in the market for two headphones, one is a set of in ear monitors, and the other is over ear headphones, specifically the FATFrequency Grand Maestro, and the Meze Empyrean II, My problem is that I can't seem to find anywhere that I may be able to try these headphones, let alone purchase them from dedicated retailers in the UK, the best I can do is have them shipped from the US, from a US company, like MusicTech, but obviously before I sink 5 Grand into audio equipment, I would like to try them out first, even though the reviews are outstanding to say the least. Does anyone here have any ideas where I can find somewhere to trial these two headphones? Maybe an event of some sort (if so when does this/these event(s) take place and where, preferably in or near London)

Any help at all is greatly appreciated! Many Thanks!!

Elise Audio, and do join their discord.

Also, CanJam London 2024.

You'll have a hard time testing open-back headphones at Canjam.

There's Audio Sanctuary in New Malden for the Meze.

FatFrequency have trademarked the term 'Basscannon' - brilliant!
