I had the chance to listen to the PS500 in Madison a few months ago and was impressed.  I thought surely the higher up in the line I go the better they must be.  I scheduled a meeting at another (closer) store to listen to most of the new e-series line, up to the GS-1000e.  Nothing wowed me. The...

I am making an assumption based upon the forum posts and multiple reviews I have read.

I have not listened to the PS1K,  only the GS1K and it was though a CD player that only had some lame solo vocal performance loaded.  I am going back this weekend with the adapter I need to listen right out of my own portable equipment.  IF I have to spend $1700 I would more likely buy the...

It's really hard to describe.  I guess I liked the PS-500i I listened too ( I liked the price too! ).  I heard things in the music that I have never heard before - that's one of my goals.  The other goal is to pick up the lower octave that I have missed in my home 2-channel system. I was hoping...

Someone with more experience than I said something the other day that may explain my headphone confusion.  I would like some confirmation, please respond if you can substantiate or refute my realization.   I had the opportunity to listen to most of the Grado "e" line a week ago.  The GS1K was...

How do the Grados sound on the Schiit stuff?  I am strongly considering GS1K's and there is great value in the Schiit brand.

I finally found a store within driving distance that has the whole Grado line-up in stock.  I plan a listening session this weekend - then I can make a decision for myself.  Thank you guys so much for your help.   I wish we could all get together and discuss this over a beer!

Which had better Bass oomph? 

Would this mod work on the GS1000e?

GTRacer, How much did the cable upgrade on your Sennheisers improve the sound quality? How would you describe the sonic signature?

Everyone talks about the frequncy response. How do the JH-13 image compare to a dianamic headphone? Soundstage, Depth, Specificity??

LeeMark, Can you describe the difference in SQ between the stock cords and your upgrade? Are JH-13's even listenable through a stock iPod Lossless files? I currently have Westone UM-2's (shopping for amp / considering new IEM's instead). Thanks.

What sound improvement do you get by upgrading the cables on a pair of JH 13's? TWag, Cryoparts? How would you compare the two?

Will an there be a benefit to using an iMod as a source in a kit that includes the GR9 Transport? Or, does the new transport make it un-necessary?

This is an awesome resource for those of us who are new to this hobby. There are no resources in my vacinity that allow me to personally hear anything. I will have to just go off of Head-fier recommendations and make a leap of faith. Did I miss it or have you not reviewed the ALO Rx? Rx...

That means that I have to wait until June to purchase my new amp. I am really getting the itch to make a decision.

I am searching for my first portable kit. How well can an Rx Amp drive the AKG 701's?

It appears as though, if I am interested in purchasing my first portable headphone amp (and an Rx is at the top of my list) I should go ahead with that purchase because whatever GR9 creates will be fully compatible with the Rx. Is there any reason why I should wait an entirety (or six-ish...

Does anyone have a picture of this little bugger? I need spy photos to feed my hunger. This unit is the perfect evolutionary step.

I have had teh UM-2's for a number of years now. I find there response very accurate as, well. (could use a little more low frequency impact, but what is there is tight and un-colored). I am new here. I have spent weeks trying to find some direction to an mid-level portable amp. What amp...
