Hey all,
I work at a record store that is a grado dealer. They have all the lower end models and they sell pretty well. I was never very interested in the lower end stuff though so I never thought much of it. Recently the topic of headphones came up and I mentioned that I have quite a few and that I really enjoy the hobby. The owner mentioned that he had some of the higher-end ones and that they just sit in the back because they are way too expensive for the customers he caters too. He told me that he would sell them to me for what he bought them for. I'm not sure if I need anymore headphones but i don't have any Grado's and they would be a good addition to my collection. They are the PS-500. He wants $500 for them but i'm guessing I could talk him down. Is this a reasonable price? I haven't been able to find much on them. Are they relatively well liked? I have a pair of HD-650's. How do the PS-500 compare to them and would it be a bit of an upgrade from the HD-650? Thanks.
