Opinions?
I never found the V6's to be all that harsh. They definitely do have a bit of a upper-mid/treble boost, but not nearly to the extent that like-priced Grados have.
Yeah, it can be quite a bit worse on a Grado.
I think for similarly priced headphones, the Koss Pro DJ100's are a good headphone without harshness. Or something like the AKG K81DJ's are impossible to be harsh, they are so dark sounding.
I think I am the only one on head-fi that dose not find grados harsh sounding

No, you're not... but... most have never heard the "real Grados" - driven by an amp and source that match their electical requirements (i.e. very low impedence, and high output current). So... they've only heard "distortion" through the Grados they tried, which is nothing like "real Grados"... which... sound the most like "real live music" of any phones available.
