I think the warmer bass and percussion presence of the Grado SR225 makes them more physically involving, getting my body to move to the music. After a while though, the constant evidence of the percussion starts to bother me. The AKG 501 has more depth and realism and makes me feel more like...

What are some of your favorite drinks to order at a bar and what's in them? Why do you like it? I liked an Irish Car Bomb I had. It's Guiness with whisky and Bailey's and it is smooth and yummy like a root beer float.
