Hahaha..... Good one! Look forward to the next 20 years (edit - I like the idea of sniper monitors, makes them sound tactical)- Holleyman

JVC's Micro HD Line: HA-FXD80/70/60
Thanks for this thread and all the feedback and reviews. I was looking for a IEM to replace my dinosaurs (Sony MDR-E225 around 1991 or 92 I think) and I went with a set of FDX-80s. Now I just wait for the mail man to show up.- Holleyman

No, I don't own one of every one they produce, I have surrendered to the fact I will eventually end up with the entire family. I only own 4 Grados right now, SR80i woodies, SR325i, RS-2 and GS1000is. Gave my pair of SR60s to a friend in need a little while ago. PS500s are on my "to get next"...- Holleyman

I have just surrendered to the fact I will have one of every Grado offering and then move on to collecting more closed cans- Holleyman

I tried the Grados many times for walks, ambient soaks through so much I find myself wearing the HD25-1 IIs now. I can keep the volume lower while still being able to hear my music perfectly plus the 1/8 jack. Love my Grado family very much but not for isolation.- Holleyman

The cups move in the gimbal laterally just over 80 thou. The cup diameter appears to be smaller than OEM diameter thus the side to side movement.- Holleyman

The SR80is with woodys look great but there is a bit too much side to side movement, I have asked to have different screws made up to correct this little problem. This is pure aesthetics, just wanted a one of head phone, I think they look pretty good and sound amazing for a little set of 80s...- Holleyman

The X-Can V2 and V3s are also very good sound and as they are used, great value. I picked up a V3 for peanuts and, upgraded the caps, rolled in new tubes and added a power supply. Sounds amazing for a fraction of buying new. My RS-2s and 325s sound great on this amp.- Holleyman

Rate The Last Movie You Watched
Cabin in the Woods, I knew nothing about this movie. I saw it for download errr, purchase and decided I could go for a campy horror movie to shut my brain down for a couple of hours. I was pleasantly surprised at the plot twist. I won't give it away, worth the watch. Acting was so so...- Holleyman

The answer to perfect cut pads is to use a large gasket punch on a piece of hardwood. They will be perfectly round and exactly the same size. I have them in my shop up to 2 inch.- Holleyman

I do like the combo of the MapleTree Ear+ HD and the GS1000is or RS2s. I source from either the Cowon J3 or the CD player. It can always bring me to my happy place.- Holleyman

I have spent several hours comparing the modded woody SR80is to my RS2s. It is amazing how they have morphed the sound closer to the RS2s, warmer, bigger sound stage and calmed the highs. My RS2s are more detailed and more forward mids but for most music I was more than pleasantly surprised at...- Holleyman
