Which pads will fit the Grado SR80i?

post #1 of 3
Thread Starter 

I am a new owner of a pair of Grado SR80i's and so far I'm loving them to pieces... yeah I know and my HD650's are hanging off their stand saying words which apparantly I am not allowed to use on the forum. Having never tried or heard Grados before I have been suprised by just how much I am enjoying the experience.

 

Being a unstoppable tweaker I've rapidly become aware that you can fiddle about with Grados to your hearts content, especially so far as ear pads are concerned. I already have some Sennheiser 414 pads and I have been through the forum reading up as much as possible. It may be a stupid question, but you only get sensible answers by asking those sorts of questions anyway so - exactly which pads will or will not fit the SR80i and is their some mechanical or design difference which makes it that a pad for say the SR325 will not fit on the SR80i.... looking at both it seems they both fit around a similar diameter lip, but the SR80i pad doesn't leave the white driver face exposed... or am I just damned thick?

they do, all grado pads fit the sr80; s-sush, l-cush, and the g-cush. i have the l and s cush and imho the s-cush are the best ones, comfort-wise and sound-wise. they provide better bass, balances everything out.

Thanks cowjuan for the speedie reply - I'll do some experimenting and I found a interesting page since I first posted

I wonder if 414 pads will take red and blue dye's.
