Posted this in the 'buying new headphones' thread, but didn't get answers :/   Hey all,   I'm looking to replace my ATH A700's. Headphones I have in mind are: Grado SR225i / SR325i AKG 701 Sennheiser HD650   I really think I might like the sound signature of the grados...

After putting it off, I finally want to try some Grados. First and most importantly, which pads are the most comfortable and which sound the best? Also would you prefer the SR-80is or MS1is?

I'm thinking of purchasing a pair of grados for rock. I have heard great reviews about both sets of cans. I just want to get an opinion about which is prefered by most people.

Hi all, I'm new to the forum... As said in the thread title, I'm looking for orchestral music.... I'm listening to x-ray dogs and other artist and I want to enjoy better the sounds, can you help me?   Ty guys

Hi,   Fellow head-fiers, As title said, I would like to find a headphone to replace my Grado HF2, my HF2 sounds great to me, but its presentation makes me like it, not LOVE it, sometimes I feels relly comfortable to listen to HF2 but sometimes I felt it is a bit too soft and unnatral. I do...

Hello, I am posting this for a friend of mine. He is not registered here but follows the community regularly.    He is in need of good headphones. His current reference headphones is Beats Studio by Dr. Dre. He saw one in best buy and liked it.    Is it a good buy for $300?   Some...

which would give me the best performance, to my uses? music(more then gaming)- from acoustic relaxing music- to dubstep, deathcore, hardstyle and all that... gaming- FPS, mostly. at the first, i thought to take the hd555, but i understood he got lack of bass, for dubstep hard style and all...

Hello, This is the first post I have made in a long time. I have spent lots of time on this site, and I have read many reviews and impressions on all kinds of cans. I know its taboo to just ask without doing research, but I grow tired of everyone having their audiogasms, and want some...

Well, I have a little headphone spending to do, and I'm looking for a direction to travel.  I'm planning with a budget of around $600, and the way I see it, I have two general options.  But I have decided that I want to make some sort of Grado purchase.   A)  I've wanted a set of Grado...

I'm looking at some Alessandro MS2i's currently and was wondering how they would sound for electronica/trance. Does anybody have experience with either these or the Grado 325i's for electronica?

Hi all Music lovers,   I currently own the igrado's which I use mainly though not exclusively for portable use.I find there open sound can be a refreshing change from closed headphones and can let the ears relax a little after a long period of listening with closed systems .So I was...

Hey all, so heres my story.   Initially i wanted to get a good and nice pair of headphones that i can use at home or when im travelling. So i planned on getting the Beats Studios cause they looked so good and supposed to have hq sound. But after going through many threads, I realised that i...

Hello all, I was wondering how long it takes Grado Labs to repair a pair of headphones? I sent in my Grado RS-1 two weeks ago and I still haven't gotten them back so I'm getting kind of worried.

OK here is the deal. i bought these because they were on sale for $129.99 and the reviews on the web page were ridiculously good. so i get home and put them on. for the first 10 hours i thought they were amazing but that slowly died. the more i listened to them the more i hated them. harsh...

  Hello Head-Fi members!   I am a new kid on the block. Not an hour ago, I ordered myself a pair of Grado SR325is cans (may I add that I am shaking with excitement?).   To explain myself and my intentions, I have to tell you of some of my recent audiophillic tendencies...

Greetings.   I've done a lot of searching on the forums. I'm looking for headphones (sub $300).   My favourite music is Jazz. I'm a jazz player, would prefer a rather neutral set. I listen to various types. Sometimes recordings from a small jazz bar, sometimes big band (more new big band...

  Haven't signed on in a couple of months. Thought I'd just see what was cookin. (It's like visiting an old flame.) Well - one thing led to another, and I'm about to buy a pair of Grado SR325i's. I just gotta cancel my account on this site.

I got them from Amazon. They shoud arrive tomorrow. I read a LOT of posts both old and new here. Ultimately, I have to make up my own mind, but this desciption (see below) by Traddad in a post from 3 years ago really sealed it for me. Worst case, I return them to Amazon, like I did with the D2+...

Well I got up to 32 ohm today and to my surprise they had the RS-2 to use and some 325is. LET THE BATTLE BEGIN!!!! Build: Well that can I say ones wood, ones metal and are built pretty much the same.   Sound: OH MY GOOOOOOOOOOOD! 325is: Well people on here say that the higher end...

Hey their folks, I've been searching hard and trying to find the answer. But after several days in the bowls of Head-fi and Head-room I figured I might as well ask. I'm looking for a portable amp (travel friendly might be the better word here) that will suit my low impedance cans. I have a...

I bought a set with silver grills. Just wanted to know what the difference was with the black grills. Which ones are newer?

Good evening,   This is my first post so go easy on me please.   Does anyone have an idea how much I should sell my SR325i's for? They are about four years old and have less than a 100 hrs use (long story) and they are the gold 50th edition.   I am from the UK by the way.   Your...

Hi, this is my first thread. I was wondering on head-fi and only look at comments like usual and clicking links while listening to my grados. Suddenly I found myself looking at the following website:   http://www.knicom.co.jp/version2011.html   I'm rather surprised because I can't find...

Don’t know if this has appeared already?   I took part in some of the testing for the uHA-120, there were 3 different units with differences in the components in that test so I cannot give a full description of the sound of the final design. I have a good idea which unit most closely...

Hey guys, so I picked up some DT 770's for work and a PA2v2 amp. It doesn't sound bad but I have a sneaky feeling this little pocket amp isn't doing these cans any justice what-so-ever. That being said I'm looking for a desktop amp that will make these cans shine for under $300 out the door and...
