ALO now an AUTHORIZED GRADO dealer
I am overjoyed to announce that we are now an authorized Grado dealer. I will be activating the wonderful Grado products on the ALO website shortly. I have always been a long time fan of Grado products and have wanted to carry their headphones for a while now. It took a little convincing them but they finally yielded to the ALO  So in a effort to carry the very best of the best, I am so very happy represent and carry the incredible Grado line up of headphones!!
Cheers,

I am working in the folks at Grado to let me offer my cables on the RS1, RS2 and GS1000s installed at the factory. One step at a time though, I have my foot in the door now. 
Thanks
Ken

ALO - Authorized Purveyor of Fine Grado Phones since 2008
Having been a satisfied user of the SR225 from 2003 - 2007, and then, having been an amazed user of the ALO-Modded SR225 (with 18 AWG Jena Ultra Cryo Wire cable) for 2008, it's great news that you are now an authorized purveyor of these fine phones, the true potential of which you are able to unleash. I hope, for everyone's sake, that you are able to work out the details which will enable folks to buy Grado's upper end phones with the ALO replacement cable installed.

Thanks LFF and Steve,
I pretty much have the wood recup and recable available for all except the RS1, RS2 and GS1000. I have some new mods and recups in the works also, should be avalable soon. I am still working on getting to the RS1,2 and GS1000.
Thanks all,
Ken
