I've had a few classic RS1's pass through my hands and every time something justified selling them to fund something else.  It's been years since I've last listened to any Grado cans but my memories of the RS1 always left some regret about selling.  I had no interest in the newer RS1i but maybe...

The small fit me perfectly as well although I was in between sizes.  That and the CD3k I should have never sold.  This has been a journey in regret, for selling cans that I said I never would. 

Dragging this thread back from the dead.  For some reason I clicked on Kramer5150's Grado Mods thread and a few clicks later landed on this thread.  Lots of memories and people from way back when.  I remember spending hours here trying to absorb and learn as much as I could, built a few Mints...

Have you tried Amazon.co.jp?  I got mine from them recently and shipping is fairly quick as well.

Jude, what headphone stand did you use in those pictures?  I'm curious as to how they compare to the Z1000.

our thought are with you and your family, rick.

agreed. people should be required to take a driver's ed course, advanced driving techniques class or some type of driving course before they can get their license renewed. i've seen too many stupid things and in fact, i yesterday, i almost rear ended an SUV because the lady pulled into my lane...

recently i've seen quite a few pop up on craigslist

+1 They haven't been getting much head time lately. I've mostly been using them out of my DAP but I'll have to try them with an amp to see if the highs are better controlled.

it's a great idea to rent the lens and get some experience with it instead of plunking down the large sum that Nikon wants. the 70-300vr already looks ridiculous on my wife's D40 so i can only imagine that the 70-200vr would engulf that little camera.

you can always take the fuse box off of its mount to make a little bit more space for your hand.

i just got a pair of these, SRH840, on ebay for $159. i'm really looking forward to hearing them and replacing my HF2 for office use.

Thank you John and Todd. I'm thoroughly enjoying the way the HF2 sound.

sorry i should've been more clear that i was referring to workmanship and what you get from the packaging/quality/etc. my point was that for $429 the quality should've been better. i'll hold judgment on the sound as they haven't been on my head for more than an hour but first impressions are...

#43 with Head-F1. Having only received them today, I'm enjoying them thus far but honestly I have to say that I don't think the value is there. Having been a Grado fan since finding my way to Head-Fi, I can't say that I've ever been satisfied with their quality and workmanship. It's only...

my card was charged over the weekend. not sure if my set will be part of the first or second batch but since i ordered early on the first day, hopefully they'll be arriving late this week or early next week.

to each his own. i prefer the look of the mkV over the mkIV. i recently sold my mkV GTI but when i was searching for it, i had a hard time deciding between the R32 vs the GTI. in the end, the GTI made more sense to me as it was going to be a commuter car. it got better gas mileage and is not...

Wow, only two months away and it's close enough from San Jose. I'll be there!

i must have missed a post or two in this long long thread but why do some people already have their HF2 while the rest of us are still waiting?

vw/audi manual gearboxes are pretty bad unless you like long rubbery throws when shifting gears. i regret not getting the DSG in my GTI.
