Yup, mine gets really hot too. But definitely not worried about it, seems pretty normal.- PapaSmurf6768

Aurisonics ROCKETS: Impressions Thread
I actually like the cable a lot, but I might try and change my color now. I originally wanted gold but I think the cable will clash too much for that to work.- PapaSmurf6768

Non-audiophile reactions to high-end headphones Part II
Yeah, this must be what it was. I'm sure he'd heard the gist of the sound, but when he heard the dynamics and everything else going on in the song at the same time it probably brought it to a new level.- PapaSmurf6768

Non-audiophile reactions to high-end headphones Part II
I put on my friend's favorite song, Ramble On by Led Zeppelin, on my Grado's. As soon as the song started he said to me "No, this isn't it..." I'm like, what do you mean this isn't it? This is Led Zeppelin II, of course this is it! Then his face morphed from a puzzled look to more of a grin...- PapaSmurf6768

I know I just came in here to get the Led out, but here's my second favorite band: Pink Floyd – Fearless - 2011 - Remaster Not my favorite Floyd song, but the amount of depth in this song is insane, and the Grados do an excellent job to compliment it.- PapaSmurf6768

You think they would let me try out some of their headphones if I stopped by? I could see myself taking a day trip if I got to listen to every Grado there is.- PapaSmurf6768

What's your favorite album? Mine's gotta be IV, but I also love II, III, and HotH. And I... And Presence... Oh and ITTOD and Physical Graffiti are good too.- PapaSmurf6768

Man, I am falling in love with Led Zeppelin all over again. Songs I used to think I didn't like now sound awesome! These guys are absolutely insane.- PapaSmurf6768

If y'all want some more music to listen to on your Grados, check out this playlist I made on Spotify. It's 100% rock, 95% classic rock I'd say. 230+ songs, and I add to it every day. I tell people I'll listen to anything, but this is just about all I listen to The Lord's Music- PapaSmurf6768

I intend to, the Schiit Modi + Vali won't be too hard to just throw in my backpack. I'm just trying to find a day where I can actually spend a fair deal of time in the shop. Unfortunately with school, my options are pretty limited.- PapaSmurf6768
