Audeze LCD-2 vs Grado GS1000i
I think it's because some people rely too much on graphs rather than feel and sound. They are skewed by a review before they listen and the effect dominos. Then again, some may really love the lcds. None of us hear the same though. Matter of fact, I use smaller ear pads on my gs1ks which some...- j14mp

Bummed.. I may have to sell my gs1000i's :(. What a sad realization. I just bought the things too. Wahhh I friggin love these things so far. The way they make my piano sound is just unreal. I'm gonna listen to them to death before I put them up for sale.- j14mp

I'm a Bach whore.. Ha kinda like he was himself. And Rachmaninov, tons of rap, tons of classic rock, tons of everything. End of the day, it's all about that Joplin and Bach. Beautiful minds. Music is music. I don't understand what "real music" is lol. Edit: Scott Jolin. I don't know anything...- j14mp

I've always had issues with high frequencies and knew it was bad, but that was an eye opener. Low level listening for me that's for sure lol- j14mp

You know what? I think the dragonfly is a poor match for these gs1000is.. I actually prefer the sound straight from my phone. It's funny because the dragonfly was magical for the rs2s. But I still say, out of the piano. Oh my god. Dat sounnnddddd is dreamy.- j14mp

Non-audiophile reactions to high-end headphones Part II
I picture a piano as a speaker at times. Do all pianos have this notion of "flatness?" Absolutely not. We can alter and change it to how ever we want. So some people don't like a flat sound. Some can't tolerate highs, and some lows. To tell someone they should hate beats because they don't...- j14mp

Haha well I'm 28 and I have no issue with it myself. On a YouTube test with audezes, I couldn't hear over 4,000hz. I know it's not a legit test, But other people that did it with me Could hear up near 15-19,000!! I'm doomed- j14mp

Have you guys ever listened to akg k44s? They are only 19 bucks right now... I highly recommend you locate them in the store, scope them out, and walk in the opposite direction as fast as you can. See a therapist after to erase the thought of ever seeing them. Just saying.- j14mp

Gs1000s came in today. The difference between the lcd2s and the gs1000 plugged into my Roland piano is massive. The gs1000s are miles ahead in piano performance. I was tempted to buy a nord piano 2 because I felt bored of my pianos sound, but it feels like a new piano all over again. Sound is...- j14mp

You have to be an audiophile to have an opinion? That confused me lol. Someone was wearing my sr80s backwards last night. They put the vent over their ears instead of the ear pad. They probably sounded pretty decent anyways so I let it be.- j14mp
