    Grado House Sound - Grado RS2i - The Effect of Wooden Chambers

    Grado SR325i vs. SR325is --audible difference?

    This thread needs useful opinions. That's to say people who have compared the two models side by side must write their thoughts for god's sake.. There's no use for comments about only one pair.. "VS." means comparison and I'm really looking forward for inputs from people who know...

    Are there Silver SR325i's

    Hey Ian, does your silver pair have a serial number on the package or scratched on the plastic housing of the cups? I know that all gold 325i's have serial numbers. So that makes them the 50th year anniversary pairs! So, ONLY the gold 325i's were the anniversary-special editions and all...
