Bought my original gold way back , but you could go for this newer version or even pick up a mint original, I , version.

Hi. Can't tell you anything about any , X , series. But I do enjoy using the sr325e . Which you can find at good deals in mint condition. But I still reckon it's best to start with the lighter plastic sr235e first .

Hi there I see you have the 660s2 , (. I have the 660s first version) But looks like you don't have any grado yet ? So I would suggest picking up the cheaper , E, version of either a sr60, sr80, or better still the sr225e. These are all a good starting point . Sound really will be...

Good to see the recent pics showing the sr325x gold edition. . At the moment I'm sticking with all the grado I already own. Original and ,I, ,E, version. I still have my gold edition from way back. Only thing it came with a more narrow headband. But for now I'm keeping it.

Hi there sorry bit late only just spotted your question about portable amps. Well like you already know all grado are pretty easy to run from phones. Audio players. But I do use a couple myself , mainly because the player is a bit loud even on low volume settings. So I then can use...

Don't know if anyone mentioned yet but the early version was the larger tip. With the flexible short adapter to use for 3.5m . The newer , E , version was when they went 3.5m direct , then with a gold adaptor. Your grado don't show the , E , . But they could be the early. 325is . Silver...

Very true and if I hadn't already got plus happy with my mint. Hd580 , new type Hd600 and mint Hd660s. I would be onto Amazon right now. Lol

But also the sr225e is very good with different types of Jazz. Jazz funk Jazz fusion & rock and even soul & funk music . For the price these are a go go for anybody starting out.

Well assume you mean cursed like not being around anymore , rather than a bad headphone. If you do like the 660s there are a fair few being sold all over at good prices. Which may go up. Glad iv got mine , I like it. Very good for playing direct from audio players.

I would say for a new version 1. About. £320. Mine were just over £200. But mint second hand.

Just checked on Amazon UK. And the 660s2 still. £499.

Well did I make a mistake and not buy a second hand set of 660s2 for a offer £270. I thought about it for too long. And now sold ....um . But I have a mint hd580 . And the hd600 new version plus a mint second hand 660s . But you never know ... Do I need another ...lol .

Apart what people have already said the , gold , cable is very slim compared to the others.

Hi what's the difference between this tape player compared to these £35 types on A.zon. These have auto reverse, bluetooth, AA batteries, & usb ? So what am I missing here .

I'll keep my eye on this thread. Be nice to see a review compared to the other player being sold. Big shame that minidisc stopped being made and sold back in the day .

Well nice to see this thread still going. I'm still using my Douk little amp for the reason I bought it. Plenty of power to use my sennheiser and grado phones. Still power it from a old Samsung 9v supply. All good. What I wanted it for was so I could use my old spare project debut 2...

You still thinking about getting one then ? For me I like most sennheiser and grado headphones, Plus focal fir closed back session. I bought the hd580 when it came out for £100. And a mint hd660s for double ish, then not to long ago the newer style hd600 again for 200 ish. And I enjoy...

Playing Pat metheny acoustic style jazz Lp on my SR325e via project turntable into a cheap class A Douk amp. All good. Just wish pat was playing more and his faster stuff. Lol .

This. One too....cheap.

Hi. This may not be helpful but shame you had to pay that amount for not the best condition, plus poss mixed drivers . Reckon if you Google search hd580 mods. Etc. You should find more help. I still have my mint hd580 which I bought new for £100. And have replaced ear pads & headband pad...

^hi firstly which grado are you wanting a case for . You can pick up for around £10 to fit all the SR range with S cush and L pads. Or the much larger grado for the GS , and PS range with G pads. But yes you can also buy a cheaper one which will work ok . Mine was only about £15...

Well playing a few jazzy albums tonight with my new to me , hardly used Sr325e via the cheap Douk amp, loads of power spare. Mainly use this Douk with my Hd580 , hd600, all good. Am pretty impressed by these 325e . Even if I already have a fair few other grado.

One hour ago my new to me mint second hand Grado Sr325e playing jazz dance fusion from podcasts via Fiio M7 . And now playing Focal Elegia via Fiio M7 , Al Di Meola live album.

Don't know if any good but a few people are selling the 4mm cable that sennheiser gave away with the hd660s headphone. Might be useful.

Thing is everyone has to start somewhere. And I bet most of us started with hifi , speakers, set ups . Before moving onto cheap headphones just to walk around with , mostly open backed. To play tapes, minidisc , before moving to cd. Then we all grew up and wanted music on at home . But...
