I like the Apple design. 

Quote:   I got mine from Amazon. The price usually fluctuate between $200 to $250 USD. Another $10 for shipping. And if you don't like it, you can return for a full refund. You would need to pay for the return shipping though. 

Oh no, I'm late. Anyway, happy birthday Joe!! Thank you designing the gorgeous looking HP1000!!

Quote:   Yes, a comparison against the Dacport would be very welcome. 

Quote:   For my Magnum one of the rods detached itself from the gimbal. And one of the screws on the inner cups was loose. So I don't think they're that strong. There's a difference between heavy and strong. 

Quote:   That's the general consensus. However Grado claims that the PS500 is slightly different.

^^ Please leave your Frankenstein magnums in the other modder thread thanks. Let's keep this thread to the pure and proper magnum. Just kidding. :D I've always wanted to buy a LCD2 leather headband for my magnum

Quote:   Wearing Grado while sleeping? Really? I do feel sorry for the Grado that you will eventually buy, which will get broken as soon as you turn on your side in your sleep. Maybe you can try the Grado GR10. 

Quote:   I agree. Rhydon tunes his drivers to work best with aluminum inner cups and outer cups. I consider all the woodwork going on over the "Grado modders go Magnum" thread sacrilegious 

This is a very favorable review of the SR-60 by Stereophile. http://www.stereophile.com/headphones/532/index.html It's interesting to read the review's comparison of the SR-60 vs the legendary HP-2. 

Quote:   3 points I like to make:    1- Grado designed their headphones using ears not measurements. So to judge their products based on measurements is kind of pointless.  2- Please don't knock the GS1000 & PS1000 until you actually listen to them for an extended amount of time...

Maybe this new line is so radical because Denon and Fostex had a falling out. 

Quote:   No, prices are very good compared to before, when sold by Audiophile in Melb.

Quote:   These models have full circle metal gimbal: Grado RS1, GS1000, PS1000. And the superlimited PS1, and the older generation HP1000 as well. And Alessandro MS Pro too. And if you do the Magnum upgrade you'll get a very good metal gimbal too.    PS500 are basically rebadged HF2...
