They sound great but I do not think I will ever buy Grados again...my money is going to Sennheiser..better build quality...I am the biggest Grado fan. But I cannot accet these faults for the money they charge for their product.
sorry to hear that, out of interest have you owned any other grado models which have had problems? or it just the gs1k?
