    The First item available from The Audiophile Style Collection is the limited edition Computer Audiophile Hi-Res Hat! The Hi-Res Hat features a prominent stylized CA with raised letters on the front, silver button on top, and computeraudiophile.com on the rear. Featured discreetly under the hat's bill is the date Computer Audiophile started 11.20.07. Internally the hat features a custom Official Hi-Res Hat label and the words Low Jitter And Bit Transparent repeated on the hat's seams. Now that it's Summer CA readers need to let their heads breathe a bit. Put away the heavy duty hats and pick up a very limited edition Hi-Res Hat!







    Currently the Hi-Res Hat can only be sent to addresses in the U.S. Computer Audiophile is still a small operation without the time to complete International paper work required to ship every package overseas. Depending on the response of overseas readers it may be possible to offer items internationally in the future.


    The Hi-Res Hat was designed by Mike Minick of Minick Design and Green Boy Brand.




    Price: $25 + Shipping

      Hi Chris,

      You can count me in... As soon as you announce that it is possible to proudly show our pride to be part of this adventure !

      It would be too much trouble for me to move temporarily to the U.S., unless I wait for next year, when my parents will go to their annual vacation in Florida :-)

      But I would need an XXX one... I did not ask for such a big head... Too much "headbanging" at a younger age maybe

      I think I will get one of these too. I have precisely one hat, a University of Michigan hat purchased in 1993 when I started undergrad. It is getting a bit ragged now and needs replacing.

      Jeez, you couldn't have made it something classy like a Fedora? I've never worn a baseball cap in my life, wouldn't even know which way to point it.

      Well, it's "audiophile style", alright.
      Not, unfortunately, the same thing as, well, you know, style...

      I live outside US. Could I buy one and had it shipped to an US address?

      Not currently. The added paperwork takes more time than we currently have to get the hats out the door.

      I hope the ability to ship to Canada manifests sooner rather than later.

      Has this hat been thoroughly subjected to a rigorous ABX testing regime?

      The hat is very high quality, nicely done. Only quibble is that it's not quite big enough for my fat head (7 5/8).

      Yeah, you should have it in a couple days. I'm working with someone else to ship them out. Yours was in the second batch.

      @Chris, any chance these will be sent offshore?
