Hi,   I would be thankful if you could give me some tips for a complement to my HD-800. I am going to shop around and be a bit unfaithful to my dear HD-800. I would like to have something more sexy, daring and interesting affair than my usual analytic, precise and comfortable listening...

Seriously? I mean why complain for hours on how uncomfortable they are and upgrade them to a ps1000 over the ear pad.   Does it degrade the sound or something?   Because I am purchasing one and am buying a ps1000 pad with it but it doesn't seem very common in fact i've never heard of...

I used to have a Grado SR225i but after 30 min using, my ear hurt ( as i do wear glasses) is there any grado headphones which is more glasses friendly?   PS-1000? GS-1000? HF-2 ??? RA1i ???

Hi I just bought the GS1000, but i wounder what you out there think is the best setup for impedance on the little dot? Sorry for my bad english. Best regards Bagger

I'm a noob audiophile. With regards to guitar equipment, I ALWAYS strived to have the best tone possible, so I figured why would I not do that when listening to music? Last christmas, I got myself a pair of Grado SR225is. Such an amazing step up from my previous in ear skullcandy pos. I could go...

Hi to everybody   I'm a new forumer from Italy.   Sorry for my bad English.   Has anyone heard Naim Headline with Grado GS1000 or Grado PS1000?   On the Naim Forum there are some discordant opinions regarding this argument.   Thanks   Matteo   [My equipments can be...

Hey guys sorry havent posted for a while so dont know if this is still the right section, however   I have ad a pair of livewires (dual driver) for 2 years, didnt think that much of them and then they broke so i through them away, most amount of money ive ever wasted, I also have a pair of...

Hi there. First post, but I've been lurking here for a while. I've got a pair of Grado GS-1000s that currently I listen to straight from my iPod (don't laugh); I've heard a fair few other headphones, some through 'better' equipment, and I've always preferred my GS-1000s even through my crappy...

I need to get down to one pair of phones at the moment in order to raise some cash.  Whick of these there would you recommend as my only phone.  My rig is:   MacbookPro M2 Hiface PS Audio DAC WOO Audio 6 Tube amp     shane

I was wondering if I pair my W5000 with WA2 or maybe WA6SE comparing to HA5000 what will I gain and loss in sound signature. Thank you for your answer, Charlotte

Well simply put, what is the best amp for the GS1000, what really makes these phones sing? Note: Not sure if this will help but I listen mostly to Rock, Soft Rock, and Alternative. I've been looking at the Woo Audio amps, another question I might ask is Tube AMP or Solid State? At the moment I'm...

Have anyone compared their MS1000 with the high end grados? Is the MS1000 a good contender? or the MS1000 sound just another sub 400 range can?

Introduction & Background I was given the opportunity to test out the Grado GS1000 headphones by Head-Fi member Zanth. He is currently running the Headphone Loan Programme [LINK], which includes a several pairs of Grado headphones: SR-60, GS1000, and an RS-1/RS-2 combo pack. If you meet the...

I don't post here very often, but I lurk quite a bit.  I haven't yet ordered the GS1000 pads, but I probably will.  My question is whether I would be better served by a DAC or a k701.  I haven't heard too many comparasons between the MS-1000 and the k701, but I have searched quite a bit and only...

Do they have enough differences and moods that it's worth having both or is it better to just get one, the best one?

I would like to look into getting my mother the gift of proper headphones and helping her "unlock" some more auditory frequencies. She likes music but was born legally, but not completely, deaf in both ears. Upon searching existing threads I saw some about the challenges involved when someone is...

Hey everyone, im looking for a high end headphone that is engaging with bass (unlike the Denon Ah-5000's)but the correct amount of base, clear and precise, but not overpowering. Im also needing a good vocal expressions. Budget is $700-2500. Here is a list of headphones ive been looking at...

Pristine condition GS1000 with original box, extension cable, re-terminated to Neutrix 4-pin balanced connector.  Low hours & not getting much use at the moment, so they need a new home where they can be appreciated again.  Reason for sale :  Need to thin the herd to make room for an upgrade on...

Hey guys, newb here so bear with me. I purchased a pair of Grado GS1000i's awhile ago along with a PS Audio GCHA amp to run them. Everything was okay for awhile, now I find myself wanting to go to that next level.   I have my eye on a maxed out version of the WA-6SE from Woo but I'm unsure...

I've been at this hobby for about a year now; I've found my favourite cans out of many: Grado HF-2s. But I decided I had to find the perfect amp for them. I've listened to many amps, most of which are recommended for Grados: Eddie Current EC/SS, Millet Hybrid, Gilmore Lite. I tried a four year...

I own a new pair of Grado GS1Ki headphones that I am loving. Right now I am just using the headphone out on my Anthem AVM30 along with it's internal DAC. I will be using these most often in my office/game room. In there I will be stuck with a Yamaha Rxv540 receiver. At that point, I'm really...

Thanks to my fellow from forum.MP3store.pl (Powered by Invision Power Board) whose personality is known to me and Kingwa, the discrete op-amps designer, I received three types of discrete op-amps from Audio-gd for review. The schematics and descriptions can be seen here: н¨ÍøÒ³ 1 The modules...

I'll be in Toronto in the weekend and I want to try some IEMs such as the E3C,E4C and any grado headphones as well. Here in vancouver I don't believe such stores exists Any store relatively close to downtown would be great. I only heard of CPUsed but are there any more stores?
