    Grado Modders Go Nhoord?!?!

    They're currently 70 euro, which works out to be $76 USD.

    Grado Modders Go Nhoord?!?!

    Man these are fun. My goal was to build a pair of grado clones as my primary headphone with better materials for around the same money I was going to spend on a new pair of 325e's and I have most certainly done that. Waiting on my gimbals and then I'll post some final product pics, but these are...

    Grado modders go Magnum

    That looks to be a recent drop in pricing - there were closer to $110 shipped. Maybe dropped to be more competitive with the likes of Nhoord ($80 with the cheaper shipping)?

    Grado Modders Go Nhoord?!?!

    Just got my Nhoords installed.. Easy peasy with the solder pads and I love how they just slide into the standard size cups without any additional gasket material. Of course, though, I'm battling a full-on sinus infection today, so I think they sound good? I hear noise that resembles music, so I...

    Grado Modders Go Nhoord?!?!

    My Nhoord drivers are due to arrive on Monday. Rholupat gimbals (black) shipped earlier this week will arrive soon, and my onyx manta ships out monday. My build should be done soon! I've got L-cush cups to start with... is there any point in getting a pair of G-cush to try with these drivers?

    Grado modders go Magnum

    I'll have a pair of stock gimbals available soon and the vinyl headband cover, but will be reusing the rodblocks and metal band.

    post your grado mods....

    what characteristics do you attribute to "lively" and "dark" amps? Trying to determine where my custom SEP tube amp would sit and which of the 3 drivers tested would be better suited. I'm using a JDS Labs ODAC with Raspberry Pi and have typically used Klipsch speakers.. It's a very clean setup...

    Grado Modders Go Nhoord?!?!

    Can you link to the headband assemblies please?

    Grado Modders Go Nhoord?!?!

    I was initially going to build around the Symphones v7 driver, but I think instead I'm going to pivot and give these driversa try. Just ordered the last pair of turbulent labs' batch 008 cups (red mahogany). Will be getting the headset assembly from headphile and swapping in aluminum gimbals and...
