    Looking to buy some headphones

    Alright, I am on the market for some headphones. My budget is between $300-$500 dollars (I am willing to spend this on the cans alone. Therefore, I am willing to spend more money on additional equipment for the headphones). I realize that once I spend that much I may as well invest in better...

    Maverick D1 and Grado HF2, what's next?

    Hello! I have been spinning myself in circles the last month or so trying to find a stepping (jumping) off point in this hobby. I stumbled upon one of the HF2 threads and decided that a mid range set of Grados seemed like a good start.   I have a fairly extensive iTunes library ripped at...

    Review: Symphones Magnums (with comparisons to the HF-1s, HF-2s, HD-800s, HE-5s and Stax)

    Some time ago, a friend of mine decided he wanted to try Grados and picked up a pair of HF-1s from another Head-fier. At the time his DAC/amp was a Benchmark DAC 1, and I had an Audio-gd Compass and C2C, along with a Northstar M192 DAC. The first time I tried the HF-1s out of his Benchmark, they...

    DNA Sonett Review

    I've been at this hobby for about a year now; I've found my favourite cans out of many: Grado HF-2s. But I decided I had to find the perfect amp for them. I've listened to many amps, most of which are recommended for Grados: Eddie Current EC/SS, Millet Hybrid, Gilmore Lite. I tried a four year...

    Bogged down by recommendations - General desktop mid-fi setup

    Been researching for a while, but not only am I confused by frequently contradictory recommendations, but I'm noobish in the sense I'm having trouble knowing what does what. Hell, I might not even need an upgrade on my current X-fi Xtreme Audio - however after seeing that it couldn't even...

    414 pads with Grados

    I've been trying the yellow Sennheiser pads with my HF2's (no qtr mod, just stock).  With bowls, I think the HF2's are a hair too bright, so I'd EQ them, and bowls don't work with my ears for comfort anyway.  Comfies are the most comfortable, but the bass is increased so I'd have to EQ there...

    G-cushion mod

    Hey there!   I recently bought the Grado HF-2 and I really am loving it. I prefer the sound on the bagels(the G-cushion), bought I wish the mids were slightly more forward. Is there a way to modify the cushion to slightly increase the mids and maybe slightly increase the bass too?     ...

    Headamp HD700 Demo Review

    First and foremost I would like to take the opportunity to thank Justin W of Headamp for the wonderful opportunity to try out Sennheiser's HD700 at home with my own gear. I first met Justin at a local headfi meet in Northern Virginia where I found him to not only be generous on the gear he...

    HF-2

    Hi All, It appears an error has occurred on the HF-2. The engraving does indeed have Grado Head-F1 Headphone HF2 on the aluminum enclosure. First I would like to make it completely clear that the error was not spotted before the headphones were shipped by either Grado Labs or by TTVJ. Had...
