    Grado 325i's + Liberators = NICE!

    Just installed a set of Liberators on my 325i's and I must say I'm impressed. I was beginning to think the 325i's weren't for me, but the Liberators have really made a difference. Using the standard bowls, the sound is pretty much still in your face, but with some extra breathing room. Think of...

    Shure E500PTH vs. Super Triple.fi 10 Pro

    I, like Trogdor, have been listening to both. I've had the E500s for a few months now and the Triple.fi's for only a few hours. I agree that the TFs sound more balanced with not one area of the sound spectrum receiving more or less attention. They sound great and, at this early stage, to my...

    Just got my Triple.fi's - 160/1000!!!

    Quote: Originally Posted by Trogdor Yeah, I tried it through an iPod and my Apogee - the bass is different. I suspect a high quality amp like the Hornet is going to play a significant role. BUT the sound is really bigger than the E500's for sure. I think that's due to the overall...

    Quote: Originally Posted by Trogdor oldspice, I interpret the BIG feeling to overall more tonal balance compared to the E500's which are too bassy in my eyes. Add the fuzzy mids and you get a more in your face upfront presentation. TF's definitely have a bigger soundstage than the...

    Just got my Triple.fi's - 160/1000!!!

    Pretty nice so far. I'm auditioning them as I type this. I'll have some better impressions after a few hours. But so far, so good. Very even presentation with a very full sound. The new roadie case is a pretty nice addition as well. Again, kudos to UE for getting these out as soon as...
