These are now SOLD. Thank you all for your time, but Bilavideo was first.
NOW FOR SALE AGAIN
(Aug 21, 2010)
I have decided to sell these headphones anyway after more time listening and knowing these will not see any play after I get MSPROi.
All the conditions apply in my original post except that the price is now $105 shipped CONUS, also these will need new bowls. They will come with bowls, but they are stretched out and warrant replacement which is why I drop the price so that the buyer can recoup the costs of buying new bowls (bowls should cost around $20 plus shipping).
Thank you,
Philip
Original Post:
Purchased these from HyperDuel less than a month ago:
http://www.head-fi.org/forum/thread/504755/fs-grado-sr225i-sold
I would say the condition is the same as when they arrived to me, which is what I would describe as very good used condition. I can take pictures, but they really just look like any other well-treated but used SR225i... If a sale hinges on pics, then I will make the effort.
My reason for selling is same as HyperDuel's: enjoy the Grado sound so I am upgrading to RS1i or MSPROi.
I paid $135 shipped (plus Paypal fees), and I would like the same. CONUS only please, but I would be willing to negotiate with Canadian members. Please see my feedback on Head-Fi.
Headphones will come with original box and foam, as well as a 1/4" to 1/8" adaptor I purchased from Radioshack.
Original reason for withraw:
I had withdrew the sale, because I had modded the pads a little while they were in my possession and didn't bother to unmod before posting this for sale ad, and now I am finding they aren't unmodding as easily as I had hoped. I placed felt under the ear pads in order to reduced treble slightly, but the felt has caused the pads to stretch out seemingly permanently. If I removed the felt, then the pads do not sit as tightly onto the headphone as well as originally. If the issue cannot be reversed, then I will have to buy new pads then sell, or just keep the headphones and add to my PERMANENT COLLECTION. I will likely keep the headphones and mod them all out crazy-like. In the end it will fill the niche of being my less scared-to-travel-with Grado headphone by using it as a semi portable instead of RS1i. Not like I would travel with the RS1i anyway, but now the SR225i gives me that option of having something similar on the road. Now alls I need is the Grado travel case sold on eBay.
