Thanks Jahn!

The PS-1 to my ear has deeper, tighter, more realistic bass, great mids and detail that never fatigues. For some music I use the flats and some I use the bowls. If the music is rock or a bright recording the flats are it. If it is light Jazz or classical I use the bowls. Ah, the number of great products available these days makes listening to music a JOY!

Must own one. HeadRoom is getting my business in middle 2005 for their MAX with Stepped Attenuator & Dual Input. YOU are getting my business in late 2005 for the Grado PS-1.

Got to work on my Quicken 2005 budget. I think there is a sudden bulk order of Top Ramen in my budget somewhere. It'll help me to lose weight and keep it off throughout 2005 too!

PS: Todd, don't even think about trying to tempt me with a special deal before the end of 2004. I take care of loved ones first, then my finances, and last material things. Just wanted to get that out of the way in case...
