Grado SR-80
“ Not a review, just my little opinion on these nice headphones. My Grado SR80s are the older ones (Not the new 'i' version) I'm guessing my SR80s were made around in 2001-2003 etc. All I can say these SR80s are very musical sounding headphones, and they can sure boogie too. I think the SR80s are one of Grado's best headphones in my opinion. And can sound just...” --TDL-speakers
Grado SR60 Headphones
“ Despite being overpriced out of the U.S. they are still worth every penny. They make everything sound energetic and rich. But most importantly the sound they produce makes me grin uncontrollably. Also as a side note, on my ears these (with bowl pads/'L' pads) are circumaural because I have small ears - which is an added bonus for me. ” --GREQ
Grado GR10 In-ear Headphones
“ Gear used for testing: iPod Video 80gb (5th gen, Rockbox) + Fiio E17 Test tracks: "Survival" by Muse, "Take the Power Back" by Rage Against the Machine, "Finally Free" by Dream Theater, "Hessian Peel" by Opeth, "Sacred Worlds" by Blind Guardian Sound quality and signature: Not transparent. Presentation is upfront. But the amazing thing here is how they've managed to...” --enderbender
Grado HP-1000
“Rigg: FLAC, Stello DA100 Signature (optical), RSA Raptor It's a bit scattered but here are my notes on the HP-2: Bass kick is there but doesn't carry weight emphasis (Listen to Chemical Brothers ~ music: Response), quantified in between the hd600 and hd650, would venture to say the bass sensitivity of hd800 (aka 0% bloat) is lower and fuller. "Punchy" but not for bass lovers. Details: in...” --Mr.Sneis
Grado RS 2i
“ I paid more than the US price as I live in Germany but to me are worth every penny as this is the sound I love and was trying to achieve through extensive modding of my SR60i. BUILD: Pretty similar story to most Grados. Plastic parts seem cheap but they don't look bad and it works. The cable is double the thickness of the SR60i cable - upon inspection inside the cans, it...” --GREQ
Grado Statement Series GS1000i Headphones
“ COMFORT: Unlike the comfy pads, which people complain about itching, or ears getting hot and unlike the bowl pads, which cause pain on many people ears. The superbowl pads (or bagel pads) are supremely comfortable for one simple reason, they don't touch your ears at all, ok I lied...maybe they don't touch 98% of your ears (unless you have really big ears). So no itching, no...” --Nick01
YUIN PK3 Earbuds
“ The PK3 is a great, warm earbud. It does vocals especially well because it is very mid-focused. It has impressive bass extension, not especially strong impact; the trebles are smooth and may roll off too soon for clarity and detail nuts. But the mids are what the PK3 are all about. ” --kmhaynes
Yuin Pk3 Earphones
“ Got these at Amazon after a long search and much reading. Sound for the price is really good. Not in the same league with my Sony Pros or the Sennheisers but surprisingly close. I have them connected with a REALLY cheap headphone amp and the combo far exceeds what I expected. Clear, roomy, dead quiet. ” --Richard S
Yuin Pk1 Earphones
“ These were my sweetest sounding head-gear yet. It would be brilliant all-rounder if it would not require a portable amp for portable use. This is the first reason i left it, otherwise i almost got an ear infection from those foams.., they get dirty in a few weeks of massive use. I recommend them to clean, i boiled them in water. ” --angevoi
Grado GS1000
“Foreword: I have just acquired my first set of Grado GS1000's, at approximately 3-4 years old, these are the non-i version. They have only had a claimed 15-25 hours use prior to my initial testing, these cans are not broken in, they will require 100-200 hours before properly warmed. I shall start by saying that I am far from an audio or electrical engineer; I just know what I like and what I...” --sammcj
