    Review by 'Arkamond' on item 'Grado SR225i Headphones'

    I purchased these headphones for my birthday of this year to replace my Logitech G930 headset. I've never had an "audiophile" or very high quality pair of headphones, but have heard very great things about them. I am a person who makes sure my music is in FLAC or other lossless (Or from original...

    Modifying my Grado 225I's In a different way.

    So I have received a new pair of Grado 225I's and a E7 FiiO DAC/amplifier.   I'l be making a review in a couple weeks of use but my gripe right now is the cord. I want it smaller and I want it detachable.   So here is a nice blueprint I have made:     Not sure how that looks to...

    That makes decisions MUCH easier then :D. Either way I go I'm going to be blown away by quality but I'l get a pair of 225's. My parents are going to hate me for modifying them, but I make some interesting modifications. I'l be sure to post a review unless I suddenly change my mind in the next 6...

    New to High-quality Headphones, Closed or open dynamics?

    Ah, that's very good to know. In my environment it probably wont be too loud. Now the question would be, which headphones to get? :P   From having 20 tabs open on google chrome from doing extensive research it seems the Grado SR225I are better for Metal and rock and the such while the Senn...

    Yeah I wish I could get more people how had listened to my Genre and have had experience with the 598 and the SR225I. Would make decisions easier :P.   Cord is fixable, all I care about is the sound quality. Looks and things I can comprimise. If I get a Grado I'm probably going to modify it...

    From looking at the DAC it seems that it would need USB power right? And the only inputs from an Ipod would have to be transfered to RCA cabling. How's your take on the Fiio E7? or E5 for that matter. I can channel stereo plugs to RCA for home-purposes but plug to RCA on the go would be...

    But wouldn't it sound better from computer if I had a better sound card? All I have is my Realtek on-board audio.  I really want to experience the 24 bit 192 Khz affect, and the DAC only goes up to 96 Khz

    I'm thinking about getting a Grado SR225i and a ASUS Xonar D2X   How well does the SR225I perform? --From anybody out there who has experience.   I was thinking either that or a Senn 598 but after doing some research it seems that the Grado is better at metal and rock, which is my genre...

    Hearing new details in new headphones is a myth

    Well, if the headphones cant output it, you cant hear it. If they cant make the frequency noticable then you most likely will not hear it. Higher end headphones make it easier to hear the parts and bring them out. So if we use a little big of logic here, a 10$ pair of cheapy cheap headphones are...

    New to High-quality Headphones, Closed or open dynamics?

    I'm doing mostly music listening but I do some studio work with audio enhancement, But I would rather go onto the better-music listening experience side.   My music tastes would be a mixture of Trance, Heavy Metal and Rock.    If anybody is experienced with any of these headphones, how...

    New to High-quality Headphones, Closed or open dynamics?

    Hello, as the title refers I am new to high quality headphones. I've only had a really crappy wireless RCA 900, Apple Ipod headphones, Sony in-ear headphones and my current G930 Logitech headset.    Now even though I dont have that great of a setup I can very much say that I am addicted to...
