    Help upgrading from Sony MH1C to more detailed/ neutral IEM

    Hello, I am looking for a new IEM to replace my MH1C. I quite enjoy these, especially the treble, however the fit is not great and the bass is rather too much for me at times. I've looked into replacement tips and they don't seem to be compatible with many aftermarket. I am therefore looking...

    Grado Modders Go Nhoord?!?!

    Another driver maker has entered the marketplace. It's great to see more guys like this popping up. Modding Grados and building Grado-esque cans is a deeply satisfying sub-genre in the lunacy that is the headphone hobby. Here are some pictures of the prototypes in the cups I have been using them...

    Purpose: To discuss driver alternatives that are being used within the Grado headphone cups.  This would apply to both custom wooden cups, as well as the standard plastic Grado or Alessandro cups, as well as Mahogany cups made by Grado. Again, the emphisis is on non-Grado manufactured drivers...

    Grado modders go Magnum

    In order not to infect and bring the SR60mod thread off-topic I thought it might be an idea to start a new thread for those of us Grado modders who want to share ideas/impressions/mods concerning their Symphones Magnums. Personally, I have been very impressed with the Magnum drivers and think...

    Do you like your Headphile Grado C-Pads?

    (you can select more than one option) It seems that the initial, near-universal enthusiasm with the Headphile C-pads is toning down, with more people coming forward and discussing not just their greatness but also their shortcomings. (cough cough, SR-325i, SA-5000...) Feel free to add your...

    Grado SR80-E Impressions and Comparison?

    I spent 3 hours in an audio store yesterday.  It was my first time really trying on a bunch of headphones and comparing them with one another.  I was able to develop my own opinions about the different headphones, but I couldn't always come up with a reason as to why I liked one pair more than...

    Are Grado 'phones more susceptible than others to volume damage to drivers?

    I've read numerous reports of the 'grattle' (Grado rattle) that happens when Grado cans have one (or both) of the membranes of their drivers creased and wrinkled in places - causing rattling on low bass notes and channel imbalance. Does this creasing and wrinkling occur only when the cans are...

    Grado woody misalignment on the engraving--anybody else got them?

    Just wanted to have a general inquiry among Grado owners if this kind of alignment error is more widespread than I would have imagined.   The misalignment in question is on the right headphone.

    Grado Mahogany vs. Plastic vs. Metal Chamber

    Hello.   How do the metal and mahogany chambers affect the sound of the headphones compared to the plastic Grado chambers?  Are the mahogany better for classical music?   Thank you. :)

    Best $100-$150 non-Grado headphone

    Huge Grado fan here, but the Grado's are too flimsy for their owner (these are for a younger girl). Any recommendations before her non-head-fi dad buys her some Beats by Dre's lol. Best on-ear/over-ear headphones for $100-$150.

    New Headphones

    I'm on the market in search of a pair of good headphones. My price range would be around $150-$200. I like to listen to orchestral (soundtracks), rock, dance, kpop, trance, and some metal. My main thing would be soundtracks. I've been looking through some Sennheisers and Grados but I can't...

    GradoLabs.com annoying website

    Once you go to their homepage, you have to click "Enter Site" twice before you actually get to the website. What's up with that?

    I've never been a fan of Grado Labs headphones, or open-back headphones for that matter, but this new e-series has taken me by surprise, i must say; wow oh wow, the new e-series is quite something.   The spiel from Grados website...   . Every single component, surface, and material...

    Headphones for low-level listening

    I wonder which headphones are best for low-level listening. I'm finding that with warmer headphones I listen at louder levels, which in the end make the warmer headphones more fatiguing than brighter headphones - although I would have expected the opposite.   Is a U-curve preferable on low...

    New Grados or something else? $1000 budget (new or used)

    First thing first, I love the Grado sound a lot for the music I listen to mostly (rock, classic rock, indie rock, soft rock). I also love large soundstage (AD700, K7xx) as well. While I do like my AKG K7xx for their wide soundstage, I am finding them boring and not engaging. The soundstage, to...
