As I recall all the talk was about the HD-600's and all of the new replacement cables. I wandered in looking for information on Ety's so I remember a lot about them as well.

i joint** here about a year after you and it was still like that
i think that people now are more aware that their opinion on headphones are very dependant on the system that feeds them - i think we won't see anymore threads like : "all grado products sucks!" anymore. well, i hope.

"joined", sorry

The higher end AT cans... Way overhyped, the quality of sound IMO was not really all that great.

I agree with that. And I agree, it's a good thing.

In a way that's too bad though. There were some classic threads there.

All I can remember at this point when I joined was eggo warts and eggo bashing. I don't know what the "flavor of choice" was, I didn't know enough at that point to remember! Probably the 600's.

Now of course the CD3000's are the flavor of the month. But I wonder how long they will the 'flavor' for? It seems much longer.

When I first joined was the first or second day of the forums. Not enough time for a flavor of the month, but I think those early discussions centered around Senn 580/600 and Grado 225/325/RS-1.

I remember the HD580 being mentioned a lot when I joined. And the META42 was in high-style then too, and much more expensive than now.

Cant really remember what the flavour of th emonth was when i joined. I didnt know of such a concept back then, and I didnt originally plan to stick around this forum, as I never thought I would become as interested in headphones as I was in full size hifi. I am very interested in both, and strangely, people at the original audio forum I joined originally now believe I am the resident headphone expert I guess its just cos most of them lot dont bother with headphones that much - few of them probably realise that there is a headphone combination outside of HD580/600 X-Can

Oh yeah, I forgot. The Grado RA-1 was the poor man's choice. This narly-looking (IMO), blue faux-marbled Microzotl was all the rage with wealthy Head-fiers!

Is that thing still around...? I could always see myself having a few beers and getting up with my phones on sending this ($600?) itty-bitty Mighty Might crashing to the floor.
