d1001, trust me.

I've had mine for about a week now. I have been a grado guy for a while and I've had the 60's, 80's, 125's, 225's, and most recently 325's, which I loved. These are better, out of the box. I have been doing some pad rolling, I usually use reversed/quarter modded 414 pads. The stock bowls on...

SN# 507, pretty cool because my boys are 5 and 7 years old. I'm VERY easy to please and not in any way picky, but I have to admit I was disappointed with the appearance of mine. Several nicks on the metal which I could live with, but there are also these big swirly defects all over the writing...

My wowness started at $50 when I bought my first set of grado's, used SR-60's off the FS forums when I first joined (about 8 years ago...) Nothing since then has been such a big jump in enjoyment, but I still love anticipating what a new headphone will sound like and playing my favorite music...

Yes, they sound fine unamped, straight from mp3 player or laptop, e5 is fine, but I don't think it really adds much to the d1001. They scale well with mods (damping/recable/etc...) also.

Got an email, too. Order 6151, July 13. Should be here by Wed.

Yeah, I wasn't sure about the freq range when I listened to them, I just thought the Beats was better. I didn't think either one of them was worth the asking price though, I'm just saying that I don't think they are as bad as everyone says and that there is a place for fun headphones that aren't...

Based on trying the beats vs. Xb700 at best buy, I would pay $150 for the beats, I thought they were fun. Might be different with different setups and music though. My $.02, I think they are better than a lot of people give them credit for, but I'm no audiophile. JJ

Yeah, I don't think you'd be satisfied with the bass from the AD700. I was thinking about the DT880 FWIR, but I've never heard them myself, so I can't really recommend them. If you'd be willing to try some closed cans, the Denon's are very comfortable, have great bass, and are good for rock. I'm...

I hate to say it, but you're looking for a grado. We share very similar taste in music, my favorite can right now is SR325, and with Senn HD414 pads they are very comfortable and have plenty of bass. Sounds fine straight out of a source (laptop/mp3 player), and even better out of a dac/amp. If...

The box is definitely decent, certainly not the highest quality wood, but better than what you'll find 99% of other headphones coming in. I'm thinking it will make a great case for my HF2's when they arrive, I'll just do a foam transplant from the pizza box.

Here's a few more pics if I can get them to work: Attachment 20702 Attachment 20703 Attachment 20704 Attachment 20705 Attachment 20706 Attachment 20707 Attachment 20708 Attachment 20709 I agree with what's been said for the most part. I will be the first to tell you...

Mine arrived. Worth $70, for sure. If for nothing else than the sweet box and leather scent. This is the first time in a long time I've had a little disposable income to spend on a completely impulse purchase. I think anyone on the fence should give it a go. Quick listening impressions - OK for...

I have to say, I agree with a lot of what Peter said about not isolating yourself from the outside world, but if you don't choose to change your entire worldview on the matter there are a lot of good choices out there as many have suggested in this thread. And to answer 1Time, I find the...

Here's your short list: KSC-75's. You should get these, period. You can still get some "full size" cans, but as one of the previous posters alluded to, these are easy to put on, they are cheap, you can put them in your pocket if you want to be more active, I mean, seriously, for $10-15, there...
