Update: I successfully contacted Grado Labs and they quoted $40 for repair service and shipping; I think they deserve at least $50 considering the state of the dead driver and the fact that Grado is very much FTW across the board in my book. I'll ship them out as soon as I can afford the...

Wow, in my prolonged absence this thread grew nicely! I've been running the same pair of HD580's for the last, what was it... four years now or so. They've aged exquisitely. I don't have any more grattle in one side except at literal near ear-bleeding volumes, the cable has been replaced with...

No worries! My ignorance surely trumps all others As far as I'm concerned, the vintage of the driver shouldn't matter, and I'm sure the matching will be good enough- my SR60's had a replaced driver and it didn't seem to affect much of anything (and if it seems to, i can always use the new driver...

How goes it everybody? It's been a spell or two or three since I've posted on the forum, and I've had quite the intermission to say the least. But that's another topic yet to discussed perhaps at another time So this story goes, yesterday I received a pair of well-worn SR-225's from the era...

Yeah, too bad this story ended so abruptly. Oh well, I bet in a week we'll have another one. Oh and speaking of Grado related ridiculousness, my dream of glass earcups/whole housings on a pair of Grados may be realized pretty soon here- I did a thread on this a long time ago. When I get down to...

Aw, weaksauce I wanted to see those SR60's sell and the details behind them revealed, though perhaps the seller didn't even have a pair to sell at all LOL. , Abe

Hehe, upgrades I saw the auction last night, and those 'phones must've been dipped in some serious ass snake oil LOL Now if I only had that anti-blowout feature equipped on my SR60's, probably beats the hell outta rainbow foil , Abe

Hey everybody! I've been down in Port Orford for the last two weeks (I'm gonna be down there a whole lot longer now woohoo) and I've come back with some of my best photos yet, especially if you like skateboarding. Some of its scary as hell too. It's a session at Reedsport, stop 10/16 of the...

Give www.kenrockwell.com a look, he might have some good bits of info. As for your injured F2, I'd call around and see what a few places would approximately charge you to fix it. As far as the F100, I've never used it (I've actually never used an F series camera ), though I imagine its a decent...

<thread: revived> I've decided that I'll buy a Wii when it comes out for sure. The PS3 can wait until whatever special edition for MGS4 comes out, which would happen about two years after it is released most likely, and at the same time prices should drop by then to something more affordable...

Ugh... I don't do PC gaming. I don't usually worry about getting banned about playing what game (s - though I only have one hahahaha) I have, cause for one I don't know how to cheat, just outwit. For two, I don't play enough for my status on MGS3:S's servers to matter to anyone. For three, after...

All the luck to you, I say. If you do get it, please post. , Abe

Hehe, my time for painting figurines passed nearly a decade ago- I haven't played D&D or the like since I was 12 or 13 if I remember correctly. Damn, that was a while ago. , Abe
