    iGrado Revision?

    Well I had a problem with my original iGrado's, seems after 5 years they developed a short around the phono plug and were putting out sound only to one side. I figured these were $60 so I guess they could be considered "disposable". But I decided I would contact Grado to see if they would fix...

    igrado problem

    I know I'm bumping an old thread but I just went through this exact situation with my iGrado's. I sent them in to Grado for repairs, shipped back to me today and I am impressed.:) I had thought that these were kind of in the "disposable" spectrum of headphones, nothing could be further from the...

    Looking at Beyer DT770 and Alessandro MS-1??

    I just bought a pair, after listening to them in the store I liked what I heard initially but listening at home I find that I don't like the bass from them, not the most boomy but too much for my taste's. Supremely comfortable on the head but I will be returning them.

    KSC75 vs PX100 vs MDR-V6 vs ? (MDR-V6 alternative?)

    Quote: Originally Posted by huhwhat KSC75 vs PX100 vs MDR-V6 vs ? I'd throw the iGrado in that group as well. I have owned all of them but the PX100 and right now the iGrado is my favorite. I didn't like the clips on the KSC's all that much and the V6's are too heavy to be a...

    What are you listening to instead of sleeping?

    I have been experimenting with my MS-1's but I have to lie flat on my back to use them, I use my Apple in ears ifI'm going to roll on my sides. I usually shuffle my whole library in my ipod so no one set list of music.
