I have a pair on their way. Eagerly waiting for it and your second part, Zanth.

Zanth!

The anticipation is high, as you can feel, because we've been eagerly waiting quite awhile now.

ah, i see... i'll repeat Jocelyn's impression: "they sound like the 325i, with the soundstage of a K701 and the frequency balence of a DT990".... almost makes me wish i had kept mine.

should be fun.. i just looked at the review list... PS-1, HP series, RS series.... now i'm waiting...

I'm interested in similarities/differences between the GS1000 with flats and PS-1 with flats.

To tide you over, you could read the review of the GS1000 I did over at 6moons, the link is in my sig, if you haven't already. I compared it to the HP-2's and RS-1's, no PS-1's though.

Went in to a local dealer on some cable business yesterday and to my big surprise they recently had gotten the GS-1000 in as a demo pair - yaaaeej! Tried it out on a x-can v3 with arcam cd player (think it was the cd-36). Allthough they sounded pretty good I wasn't THAT overwhelmed (the phones hadn't been burned in though). I tried the 325i's after and actually liked the sound signature better :-/ So - maybe it's the rs-1's that are for me? Haven't been able to try them out though.

Guys...the bad: my grandmother, undergoing routine cataract surgery, was found to have a dangerous blood clot behind the eye. After a CT scan to figure out the best way to get at it...radiology found a brain tumor. To say the last two weeks have been awful is to say the very least. My grandma is more of a mother to me than a grandma. Oh, and tomorrow is the last day of my fiscal year. I know more excuses, but I've had no life outside of the hospital or my lab for 2 weeks.

once things get smoothed out, I'll be back on here more regularly and I'll post this writeup as well as a couple of others.

Hope that she'd get well soon.

You can have as many excuse as you want. You're doing a favor for everyone else, and we took the liberty to have fun on the occasion.

Take care.
