    I need to become more familiar with the HF3 but I can give some initial thoughts between these two. The RS2e is more relaxed (smoother) sounding with a bit larger soundstage. The HF3 is more aggressive with a bit more bass slam, but with an incredible live like sound. I have around 200 hours on...

    GRADO STATEMENT GS2000e - Review and First Impressions

    I received mine about a week ago now and have been listening to them exclusively and haven't had a chance to compare them directly with any of my other headphones yet but will this weekend. I would say I'm around the 15 hour mark with these and I have to say I'm really impressed, they remind me...

    This is a good ranking, and I agree with it considering I've owned most and currently own quite a few in this list. I've recently purchased the GS2000e and with very little burn in feel that it bests my GH1/G and RS2e handedly; not having owned any version of the GS1000 to compare makes me feel...

    GRADO STATEMENT GS2000e - Review and First Impressions

    I purchased a pair of these from 4ourears.net and should have them soon. I've been looking to purchase a pair of full size Grado's for awhile but I couldn't decide between the GS1K and PS1K without having auditioned them. But being a big fan of the GH1 and hearing about the similarities to the...

    This worked great, I thought about hanging them as you described but I didn't think to use a blow dryer to help smooth out those kinks and that really made the difference.

    Cable question, I've never been a big fan of the material Grado uses to wrap there cables because of how prone they are to kink, twist and bend making them difficult to straiten especially after having stored them in a case. My question is what techniques do you guys use to straighten them back...

    Grado GH-1 Discussion

    Just received my WA6 (stock tubes for now) and am loving what I'm hearing with the GH1. I'm not at all ready to do a review of the WA6 and won't on this thread but I just had to take pause from my listening to just say I love the GH1/G with this amp.

    I've owed the MS2e for a month now and I would say they are phenomenal. Compared to my RS2e I would say the mids are a bit more recessed but very detailed with a little bigger soundstage, there's more bass but they are not as transparent. The RS2e is the most revealing Grado HP's I've ever...

    Just love how smooth the RS1e is with female vocals in this classic song.

    Grado GH-1 Discussion

    I use the original PS500 as well when I have the itch for some bass (Grado bass) but if I feel the need for something greater in the bass department I switch to my Sony MDR-Z7.
