I second this, the SR60's and SR80's are easy to drive. They run fine out of my iPhone and my MacBook Pro's headphone jack. That said; I run them out of a fiio e10 on my MacBook, solely for the reason that it doesn't clutter the headphone jack on the right side; where my mouse is.

I prefer the 414 pads to the S-cushions. However they aren't a significant jump in comfort, they will still feel like on-ear headphones. I think shaping the metal band to get the right "tension" does help with comfort.

Just saw these Grado X Uncrate Supply GS2000e's

Hi, I haven't been active on Head-fi for a couple of years now due to studies. I just started posting again and have reread the Member of trade rules; sorry but I would not be able to comment on the differences or the description of the sound signature without breaking the rules. That said I...

Neither, the driver is tuned exclusively for us and is an update on our previous X drivers circa 2012. Hope that helps.

Hi, Jin from Turbulent Labs here. Our driver is manufactured and tuned by Symphones for us. Cheers :)

  Blu tack or electrical tape works well. Jin Turbulentlabs.com

They are made in Canada, stocked in Malaysia and if shipped to the USA, go through two sorting facilities before arriving (one in Singapore and then Germany).    Cheers, Jin Turbulentlabs.com

Nope, no new release of drivers ... Something else :wink:

The Turbulent X is the V5. Just rebranded as it is solely distributed by Turbulent Labs.

The Dacport it is then. Cos i carry my macbook to the office, and at home upstairs and downstairs (the studio is downstairs). And i cant keep lugging a desktop amp and dac, its bad enough that i have to lug my grado sr325i (but thats just me bitching). I have power sources on all three venues...

Does the Dacport LX need an external amplifier if i would like to drive Grado SR325i's? If i use the audio jack for my macbook pro at full volume, the Grado SR325is are driven optimally. Does the LX offer a slight amplification over using the audio jack for the macbook pro or would it be better...

Anyone interested in purchasing mine? Got mine last year in September and has gone very unused as i work 11 hours in an advertising firm. I doubt that it has seen 50 hours of usage. Would like to get a centrance dac/amp for portability instead. PM me if interested

Hey guys, the project for the earpads have been scrapped due to Malaysia not having the technological advancements to produce such an earpad. I apologise for keeping your hopes up and i myself was extremely dissapointed when i found out that it could not be done. I tried for the last 3 weeks...
