Hi people. I'm using a Pure I-20 dock and iPod 160GB to feed a Schiit Bifrost DAC and Asgard amp. My headphones are the Grado SR325is. It sounds pretty amazing but never happy I've decided to upgrade my headphones. My budget is £700. What do you guys suggest?

Same price. Which would you buy and why?

It happened again alright.....I stopped by to visit, and it has hurt my wallet again.    I have been diggin my grado 325i's for awile now and have just purchased a pair of RS1i's.....they should be here monday......I am flippin stoked....cant wait.   I will probrably sell my 325i's if I...

Here's some background on me/Story time!:    It was during the summer of my senior year of high school when I decide I needed a new pair of headphones for college since I'm a big boy now.  I browsed the web looking for headphones and at first I was going to buy an Ath-ES7 black.  It had...

Hello. I've been lurking these forums for quite a few months now and have learned quite a bit from you all. I have to say that the community here is great, respectful, and very knowledgeable. Years ago I started out with (what I initially thought was excellent) Studio Beats by Dre. Shame on me...

Hey, so I'm very new to all this and I've been wanting to buy pair of over ear headphones for myself. My budget is around $200 (could maybe go a little more). I listen to a lot of metal/metalcore (August burns red, Parkway drive, Texas in july, ect) I also listen to a bit of hardcore and...

I adore my 325is, but the looks i get from people when i'm at getting coffee or something  make me wanna pick up closed headphones. Are their any headphones out there that give me the sound of Grado?

I'm new to this site and i'm planning on either buying the Grado Prestige Series SR325is Headphones or the V-Moda Crossfade M-100. i can't really decide which one to get so i came to you guys because you seem like you guys can help me out alot. i like all kinds of music but my favorites are...

I got my pair and would like to hear other's feedback and impressions of the budget model in the grado prestige line, the igrado's.   I'm certainly not here as a 'sponsor' or 'fanboy.' I welcome both praise as well as criticism of these headphones. Without further ado, here are some very...

Want to see how popular EQing is in this community. 

Title says it all.      P.S whether it's before or after, what should be the first mods I do?

Hi everyone,   I'm searching for some IEM's. I currently have Grado SR 325is's. This is going to sound strange, but I have oily skin and wearing the cans kind of gross's me out. I shower twice a day, so that's not the issue.    I listen to primarily EDM music, trance, electronic, techno. I...

I generally listen far more to my IEM's during any given day (music or Audiobooks) than I do to my full-size headphones at my office or at home. I bet I probably listen to IEM's at least 5-6 hours a day and some days maybe even more...sometimes I wear them to bed, listening to music as I fall...

Hey head-fi. Ive become disappointed with all these dark/neutral headphones concerning rock. Id overall like the headphones to be bright. Thanks In Advance!

I'm just curious to hear if any of you guys have bought a headphone more than once, after selling the original purchase. I'm also curious about what caused the re-buy.   For me, I really wanted to like the HifiMAN 400. Bought it, was disappointed, sold it, then a few months later, figured I...

Partially inspired by the Non-audiophile reactions to audiophile headphones thread.  Basically, I thought it would be cool if we could all share moments of audio nirvana that we have: after all, that is ultimately what we chase, those "awesome" moments!   I'll share two to start off. The...

Hello everyone, I am new to the head-fi community and relatively new to the audiophile world. about 6 months ago or so after a friends suggestion i invested in a pair of sr325is. I recently bought a schiit modi dac connected to my denon receiver and it sounds pretty good. Only thing is, the...

I have recently acquired both a Sennheiser HD600 and a Grado SR325is.  For the time being, I am likely going to have to figure out which one I want to keep and sell the other, which is going to be a challenge.  I listen to about 90% rock/metal, although most of it is not "hardcore," for lack of...

Hello everyone, before you say search i want to let you know I searched like crazy for this! I am new to this forum, my name is Gabe.  I currently own the grado 325is model. I love them, but i recently found the opportunity to buy the rs2 model. The issue is that its the buttonless one and...

So I am on the verge of choosing this amp, but I have a few things to know about it before I do, being one of them the possibility of it not being enough for my headphones of choice.   Basically this: Is it enough to get most of my 'phones? Will I miss much or is it just little things that I...

Hi there I was looking to see if anyone could upgrade a pair of sr325i's or sr225i's with Wood Cups and punch the driver with a little more bass and replace the ear pads. I'm just not comfortable doing it myself and would love if someone could do it for me. If interested message me I can supply...

I'm putting together my vinyl setup at the moment, I picked up a SL-1200mk2 with a Shure M97xe cart. I'm going to be listening with my DT880 600ohms and I was wondering if I could get some recommendations on a amp. I was thinking of maybe finding a used Valhalla or Asgard. I don't have too much...

Hello, How long usually you burnt in that Grado model to show their potential? Generally how long it takes when they noticably changed the sound in plus?

Well its one of those weeks where I've realised how much I enjoyed something and wish I hadn't sold it lol Im talking about my Grado SR60's. Not particularly high end I know...   I've juste started my own business, We're getting married in just under 5 weeks time, Moving in 7 weeks time and...

It's been a while since I've posted but I'm looking to upgrade my Grados a bit and was wondering what kind of mods are out there. Updated wire quality? The wire coming from only one cup? Cup mod? Headband? I want to know who I can go to to get these things done and for how much and which ones...
