Grado W1000 is a wireless headset that I like very much. I often take it with me when walking. The AAC sound with Apple is already very good. Soundstage is a little narrow, but other aspects are still at a high level. Today, I tried to connect sg1 with cable. The sound of cable mode is amazing. Warm, energetic and delicate, I think my favorite HD650 can quit and give way to W1000. Sometimes, a good combo is like magic, producing unexpected chemical reactions. lol

Last year I wanted to buy the W100, but a friend said the wireless signal was unstable. If the cable mode is good enough, I would consider buying one. I tried to listen to the GS3000 before. It's uncomfortable to wear. How about W100 ?

The wireless of the w100 is sometimes unstable. If the mobile phone swings in the hand, sometimes the music will be interrupted, but it is not too serious. If it is used statically, 3-5 meters is ok. When I connect w100 with SG1, this issue can be avoided. W100 shell is black plastic, so it is very light and will not feel heavy when worn. Now I often use the w100 and sometimes I use DTR1 to drive w100. Good recording makes better performance. W100X should be a new version with a higher price. If you are interested, you can try the new gear.

Attended the headphone madman party in HK, tried the new utopia with SG1 just for fun.
I was shocked that it runs well with the SG1, clean sound, crisp bass and good imaging.
And I compared with the chord set up on the back and the SG1 put up a good fight in comparison.

I tried several Focal headphones this year. On the whole, the design is luxurious,but the sound quality is not my cup of tea. They focus on the details and analysis of the sound too much. Shure SE846 is my most commonly used gear, clear and fatigue free,and now sg1 is the best combo I have used. lol

I don't know the sound of SE846, the puppy is cute! lol
How about the comparison between SE846 and Acoustune HS1770? I'd like to try HS1770s. If there is a Christmas promotion, I'm going to buy one!

Not only is this green version of the PEGASUS SG1 a perfect colour match for my favourite HOOK X, but the SG1 will also give the slightly receding midrange of the HOOK X a fuller emotional rise, so those of you who are HOOK X owners should definitely give this pairing a go.
Happy Sunday everyone!

How does the sg1 compare to the ifi gryphon? Decided for the gryphon because I enjoyed xBass on my ifi Go Blu.

But I do enjoy variety, so I was wondering if it is worth owning this alongside gryphon in the future? Will it provide my IEMs a different flavor and allow for more synergies?

Same question for topping g5. I'd like to have different sources for different situations.

I own both. Both are superb. I use the SG1 more because I enjoy the sound just a bit more. And the SG1 form factor is killer.

Cool, thanks for the valuable input. I'll definitely get the pegasus.
