I owned the A900s for a while and the detail was there and it wasn't fatiguing, but it lacked punch and the mids were a little recessed. The bass was good, but compared to the Grados, a little boomy.

That's why I took back my post. I also read he preferred the 75s to the other Senns he listened to. It almost sounds like he wants to have it both ways...crisp detail without fatigue. It can be a double-edged sword.

Take that back.

I have a few expenses coming up and was thinking about taking on a temporary part time job. I've seen the ads for mystery shoppers, typists, pet food slingers and selling pen*s enhancers, etc. I was wondering if anyone actually tried these odd jobs and what were the results? Would I be better...

^^^^Now that would have been a wise investment.

I'm a Technical Writer....yeah....the instruction manuals. My girlfriend is a medical writer for a major pharmaceutical company.

The SR-80s are a little bit more money but will get you closer to the Grado sound than the SR-60s. The bowl pads provide more detail and a bit more soundstage and well worth the extra $$$.

nevermind

A lot of people use a mild detergent like Woolite, but a very small amount of dishwashing liquid should work. You don't want your headphones April fresh or anything like that.

Congrats on your purchase. This may sound like blasphemy, but I'm beginning to wonder if these are actually better than my RS-1s. Definitely on the same level. Regarding an amp, are you running these through your computer or another setup? If a computer, I highly recommend the E-MU 0404 USB...

Quote: Seems it's a 50/50 so far....is there a store in LA where I could try both headphones? DXC Store has a wall of headphones to try out. They are in Culver City. DXC STORE That would be the best way....try before you buy.

256 AAC stored on my hard drive. Lossless stored in a box ready to be placed into a CD player when needed. I guess I've never quite understood why people rip lossless. Hard drive space, while getting cheaper, is still more expensive than a box in the closet.

^^Wow...it sounds like she really dislikes the Grados.^^ What types of music will you be listening to? The SR-60s come with comfies and not bowl pads. Not too many complaints about the SR-60s regarding comfort, but the bowl pads receive mixed reviews.

If you can stretch your budget a little, the Logitech z-2300 sound very good for the price. Otherwise, the Logitech X-540 are also excellent for the price as well.
