I just received my new MJ2 and noticed a few fine scratches in the face of the volume knob. No big deal there, I can live with it or change it out. What I would like to know from other MJ2 users is, does your volume pot feel kind of firm? My MJ2 pot has more resistance compared to the Alps...

Is Euphoria worth $400 more compared to the Elsie with the PsVane tube upgrade? How do the two above amps compare to what I've been using? My primary headphone amps has been the Mapletree Ear + HD along with a Garage 1217 Sunrise III. My headphones have been a pair of modified Grado /...

I'm looking to purchase a new DAP to replace my old Creative Vision M. I'm considering the Ibasso DX90 or DX80 or a alternative for around $450. The video option on the Vision was never really used. I don't want to spend a bunch of money as I will only be using it while hiking with IEM's , in...

I'm looking to purchase a new DAP to replace my old Creative Vision M. The video option on the Vision was never really used. I don't want to spend a bunch of money as I will only be using it while hiking with IEM's , in the car lined out to the audio system and occasionally listening with it...

What other suppliers might I consider for a quote on the Sennheiser HD800S headphones? Price is important as well as a reputable supplier. Meier-Audio is one that I'm considering, I'm in the U.S.A. they I believe are in Germany. I'm also wondering if a US supplier might be better if I were to...

At the time a was the top of the line single disc player, 3 beam laser, motor driven volume control for the headphone output, digital output etc. This brand new top of the line unit was also plagued with some problems. Put a disc in and it would...

Sorry if this has been covered before. My Alessandro MSP's have a strip of Dynamat or other material stuck to the back side of the drivers. Is this one of the tweaks they do to the Grado's? Do the MS1, MS2 also have this, and what about the Grado line?

Is anyone else waiting on phones from them? It has been 3 weeks now and I'm getting a little antsy. Maybe the MS PRO'S are assembled as they are sold. Patiently Waiting

I thought this would be a good time to start a MS PRO thread. I ordered my pair today. I'll be using them with my Creative Vision:M DAP & PA2V2 amp. I'll also use them with my Denon CD player. I understand these Grado style headphones really shine with the use of a tube amp and I have hopes of...

Anyone listening to Jazz, Jazz Fusion with Grado or Alessandro headphones? My favorite artist is Stanley Clarke and RTF one of my favorite groups. I've heard Grados work well with string instruments. Just about anything will probably be an upgrade as I'm listening with an old pair of Sennheiser...

Are the Grado GS1000 foam ear pads available separate? If used on a pair of RS1 or 2's how would it affect the soundstage? The comfort level surely would change. TD

I've got an older pair of Sennheiser HD545 (600 ohm version) headphones. They still sound as they did when I purchased them new many years ago. The only thing I've ever done was to change the ear pads. What benefit if any is there to re-cable them and what’s involved? I'm pretty handy with a...

Does one specific model of Grado or Alessandro headphones work best for the Jazz and Blues listener?

Exactly what does Alessandro do to Grado headphones other than a name change?

Anyone know of a cable that can be plugged directly into the Creative Vision:M that would eliminate the dongle adapter and give you audio out only in stereo 3.5mm (1/8) Male plug? I'd like to add a Pocket Amp2 and I don't need 4' audio and the video cable that hooks into the dongle. A nice short...
