    I lost a pair of grados today. My brother gave my dad an iPod and he did not like the headphone that he had since 1970s(taped up and glued together) so I gave him my SR80. He is made up with them love the sound and the lightness so we now have a new 87year old grado user.

    While searching for a new Fly rod I have just seen a pair off GS1000E in mint condition for £380. Headphones or fishing rod can't have them both until the new tax year. How do the GS1000E compare to the RSx-1?
