Grado SR-225=Poor Mans Sweetspot?
So i've just been listening to some SR-225s and am impressed. My very, first headphones were SR-60s. I've owned SR-125s which I thought were an improvement over the 60s. Tried a pair of RS-2s and sold them quick. For some reason I just did not like them. Ended up with some RS-1s years ago...- lextek
