    Best ~$30 mini to mini (3.5mm) interconnect?

    I'll be using this cable to run from my computer soundcard to my headphone amp, a PA2V2. My headphones are MS-1s. As of now I'm torn between these two: Cardas 1M Mini to Mini cable from HeadRoom.com --> http://www.headphone.com/products/ca...mini-cable.php and a Blue Jeans Cable custom...

    Are you dissatisfied with your Grados? Think they are too strident? Treble too hurtful? I think I have a real solution inside

    ((Note: I know many people love the Grado sound. I don't. Different strokes for different folks and all that)).   So, you bought your Grado headphones and find them too bright, and want to tame them. I know I want to.   What this thread is about...   This is not a thread about hocus pocus...

    Hi all,   As a preface, I've owned TF10s, Grado sr60, Alessandro MS1, and currently use Monster MD Tributes.  I've received the 2013 matte black Beats as a birthday gift, and I've enjoyed them for what they are - stylish, good comfort and decent sounding with hip hop (albeit annoying ANC...

    So im thinking about purchasing some MS-1's and i'm just wondering if anyone has had any hands on experience with the 'improved' version. If so, what are the differences between the two and is it worth the extra 10$? -sc

    Grado's really good with organ music

    I think so. I used to live in a small city in Germany, as a kid, which had two historic churches, both of which had organs. Well, I recently found some CDs my dad had purchased a long time ago, which featured music played on those organs. I listed to the CDs with MS-1, and I was really...

    SHORT THOUGHTS ON THE ALESSANDRO MS-1

    HI: I just got the Alessandro MS-1 headphones and for 99.00 plus free shipping these are a real big steal. Even out of my portable radio they sound great. When I plug them into my radio and PocketAmp 2 it gets even better. When I plug them into my stereo 500 watt headphone jack with my minidisc...

    How comfortable is Alessandro MS-1?

    I rate comfort first and sound second.... No deal from getting your ear sore after listerning to good sound... It is comparable to my current HQ-1300

    Any Alessandro MS Pro owners in NYC?

    Hi Guys-   First post, thanks for having me.   I have a set of Grado RS-1s which I use, among other things, for checking rock mixes in the studio.  The famous Grado 2/4/10 khz spikes really make it easy to hear what's going on with all those overdriven guitars.  That being said, those...

    A Question about repairing some Alessandro MS1's

    I bought some used Alessandro MS1's off of here about a year and a half ago.  They have worked very well up until a couple weeks ago when (and excuse my lack of knowledge of terminology) the wire from the splitter to the left speaker has caused me some trouble.  The left speaker has no output...
