I'm happy to say I made it through the rough month of September and I still have my PS1000s.  Somewhere between the sentimentality and the sharks, I rediscovered my inability to let these cans go.  I sold off the HD800s and the T1s but the PS1ks will remain by my side - probably till one of us...

I finally got around to setting up my RP010B and I am mightily impressed. I just sat down to do some evaluation with a stack of CDs and I could not stop listening. It may sound like faint praise, but after years of amp/phone combos with "issues", there are really none here. And I was just...

I was talking with the owner of Audio Connection in Verona, NJ whom was my previous employer earlier this year about the Grado PS-1000 headphones. I intend on buying my pair this Christmas 2010. I have never heard them yet. I may decide to buy the optional wooden Grado presentation box too...

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 have a Grado PS1000, which works best when properly amped.  But by switching to bowls (instead of jumbos), the HF is attenuated and the bass is captured, enough that the headphone sounds like it's being amped.  It sounds good enough to go with me wherever I should go.   But I'd hate it if...

Has anyone else had this issue? Ok, so it's 2:30am and I'm shirtless, about ready for bed, but for some reason just can't get Charlie Haden out of my head. Don't know how he got in there, but I need to grab one of his albums and give it a spin before I hit the hay. So I reach for my trusty...

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 all! What would you say if i ask how your Grado PS 1000 is going? Is it treating you well?

Let the reference be the px100 ... I mean the bassiest open headphone besides PS-1, my budget does not stretch that far ...

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...

Hi folks   Great forum, but boy is it hard to make any decisions with so much information to hand :)   Im trying to get my hands on some headphones for movies, music and games. Roughly in that order. I read one review of the Ps1000s saying they were amazing for detail and they're...

Hi all, I hope I'm not starting a redundant thread, but I would like to start a list of PS1000 owners (I'm really curious to know just how many of these phones are out there by now). If anyone would like to provide any comments in addition, such as "worked great from the start" etc., please...

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...

I have had my Grado RS1's since 2004 and love them very much. I am now thinking on adding the PS1000 to my line up. I have not been able to listen to the PS1000, so my question is, my ears are really in tune with the RS1 and will I notice that BIG of a difference going from the RS1 to the...

i am attempting to build a high end headphone based system based around the Linn Sneaky DS. the combination i have in mind is the Lehmann audio black cube partnered with the new grado ps1000's? would they compliment each other well do you think? thanks for your time

I know this is probably a hard question to answer...but I need to sell off my HE-5+CKKIII combo. Since I already have the awesome DNA Sonett, I'm wondering what pair of cans will give me similar SQ to the HE-5s?   Thanks all.

I have compare T1 HD800 PS1000 at the same reference CDsystem and i spared one week to compare them carefully,have done a lot of notes of them please just wait for my article! I will give you very detailed pk of them welcome to come to my blog first to watch my headphone collection picture...

Got them tonight, they are demos. I have only got an hour on them, but they kill my Grado 125s in every category, except price. The last photo is a 1:1 life size macro. They look mint to the naked eye. The metal has a slight dull finish and is very smooth to the touch. You can see from the...

And if not would you say the PS1000's deserve better amplification? There no chance i can demo these two together in the UK! I have already had extended listening sessions with the Lehmann and was mightely impressed. Regards Danny

Does anyone know how these will sound together? I use a PS GCHA at the moment with my PS1000's, will the Auditor sound better instead of the GCHA?  Does the Auditor and Phonitor sound the same as a headphone amp? I will be using my Cambridge Audio 840c  as a source.   Thanks in advance,

Just thought I'd share what I found (thank God) to be quite funny. Just got a new pair of headphones (PS1000) in, and not more than 4 hours into listening have I noticed an intense vibration coming from the left cup when bass kicks in. Panic mode is immediately activated as I try to figure out...

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...

Looks perhaps is the least priority in deciding what headphones to buy among Head-Fiers, but if based on looks alone, what would be the best looking headphones? (post pic)

Hi everyone, i am looking to have someone loan me there Sennheiser HD800, Ultrasone 8, and possibly a pair of Grado Ps1000. I am going to be guying a pair soon, but i would like someone to let be borrow theres and for me to see which one i like best. I will pay for you to loan me a pair. I was...
