    Grado Sr225 414 Pads sound quality

    So I just got the 225i with 414 pads second hand. I love the sound quality, however I keep hearing the original Grado Bowls sounded better, but were much less comfortable. Any opinions on this guys? Is it worth getting the original bowls?   Also, I currently have an laptop with cheapo...

    How much would these used Headphones/IEMS be worth in a trade? Also is this a good headphone amp?

       Hey all, I have a few IEMS and headphones that have had moderate use over the years but all still work good. I'm considerating consolidating all of them and trading up to a grado 125,225, or 325.   So I have ultimate ears super fi 5 Pro (the old ones), Audio Technica ATH-A700 , and...

    Is the Grado 225 the right headphone for ME?

    I just pulled the trigger on the 700s for $85. Yea, I'm a quick shopper lol. For this price, I'm sure I'll love them

    Is the Grado 225 the right headphone for ME?

    Okay, Since I'm a very price savvy shopper I've narrowed my choice down between the Audio-Technica ATH AD700 FOR 88 ON AMAZON or the 225s. My question is if the AD700s sound as good UNAMPED as do the Grados? I looked at the 700s SPL and impedence and the numbers are identical to the Grado line...

    Is the Grado 225 the right headphone for ME?

    Okay guys: I'm not planning on getting an amp. I believe I'll stick to a high quality source instead. I plan to listen through my desktop and my iPod. On my desktop, I have an older x-fi fatal1ty edition sound card, but I believe it yields fairly good sound. I read that for the 150-250...

    When do I know that my comply tips need to be replaced?

    Lol, I dabbed some vodka on a piece of cotton and gently brushed the ear tips. It seems to have cleaned them, but I'm hoping that is evaporates faster.

    When do I know that my comply tips need to be replaced?

    I've had them for a while and I'm still on the first pair. They still sound as great as they did when I first put them on. They are starting to get a little dirty lol. I guess some of my ear wax got on it, but the sound is still good. I just feel somewhat icky when I put them on, but I only have...

    Comply foam tips little ring [Stupid Question]

    This is a stupid question, but I just got my comply foam tips for ultimate ears super fi 5 and I see a little plastic ring in them that keeps them in their circular shape or whatever. Do I need to take them out before I put them in my headphones nozzle or not? I kept them in and tried to slide...

    How long will Comply Foam tips last?

    So my only question this is will I "know" when their time has run out, or will I just have to judge based on their appearance?

    How long will Comply Foam tips last?

    I just ordered a 3 pack (6 tips). Is there anyway that I can get a year+ out of these if I use them well(i.e not while working out or something that would strain them)? Will their sound deteriorate overtime or will they just break apart?
