So I'm very green to nice sound equipment but was lucky enough to have been given a pair of Grado sr325 that a friend no longer uses.  I'm looking into a dac/amp since most of my music is digital and at the moment, my computer isn't connected to my studio monitors (yamaha hs80m + sub) which are...

I have been lurking here for over a year and have learned a great deal, more than I could have imagined.  Thanks to all who share their knowledge.  I would like to humbly make my first post.   For the past year or so I have been debating how well my Woo WA6 and my AKG K702 headphones play...

I have Grado SR325. Today while I was listening music, suddenly sound gone. Firstly, I consider this as a my soundcard or player problem but after I connected another headphone to my PC and it sounds OK. Now, I try to understand the problem of my Grado, it is not possible to related with...

I just got a pair of 325is for a few days; and they're so uncomfortable that I can't really enjoy how they sound.    I've noticed there's two ways to wear them - and I wonder which way is the correct one:   1. Your ears inside the bowl pad - my case my ear actually touch the driver 2...

I've had my sr325is for a few months now (my first real pair of headphones) and I was very impressed from the moment I put them on, and even now while I'm typing. The quality and clarity is a large step-up from all of the other $30 in-ears and a pair or sr60i's I'd had previously, but the...

Hi all, can someone give me their thoughts about those two headphones? Which one is more suitable with J-Pop and classical   music? Which one has more details and better imaging? Thanks all.

Hi i purchased a set of Grado sr325is cans for listening to music while studying, last year i bought a Samsung Galaxy S3 and begin listening to portable music again after many years of using a Approx $10k, pretty decent Mid-Fi stereo system at home. I thought that the IEM with the GS3 sound...

Hi all!   Been reading for a while. Decided to register today. My first post. About my first quality future headphones :)   Grado SR325i/SR325is or Beyerdynamic DT 1350?   I think I could get a pair of golden SR325i...   Grado SR325i costs 350€ / $435 Beyerdynamic DT 1350...

Hi,   Would anyone recommend a portable amp for the above? Will I benefit from buying one?   Thank you.

So i'm in the market for a new set of cans and i have a set of criteria that i'm looking for in a new pair.  I did my research and i narrowed it down to 2 pairs.  The Denon AH D2000 and the Grado SR325is.   To give you guys an idea of what i'm looking for in a pair ill list factors based on...

So I just bought a new pair of SR325is from the US... they sound pretty good on my nuforce icon mobile but I still remember my SR125is sounding far better from a CD player's lineout hooked up to a cmoy... anyways, I'm not sure if it's the lack of synergy or whatever but I am now looking into...

Personal preference: Pop, Jazz, Country (rock), Guitar, Blues.   I really like "back at one" kind of music. Or may be you can recommend some musics that sound particularly amazing one sr325is.   Thanks again

I recently purchased 3 different sets of headphones from eBay - some Grados 60's, 80's, and 80i's.   I have been the proud owner of SR325is for a year now, and love them very much.   My question is this:   I completely dismantled the 80i's with the intention of hand making wood cans...

Does anyone know if the Grado SR325IS cans come in Gold, or is it just Silver only? And if so where I can get them from in the San Fran area?

I have a pair of Grado SR-325is and although I do love them, I recently bought a pair of Sennheiser HD428 and have decided I prefer the "Sennheiser sound" to Grado. I would like to try some higher end Sennheisers. If anyone has a higher end pair of Sennheisers in the price range of the Grados...

Hello. My headphones carrer start with Philips shp5401, Creative Live Aurvana and Superlux HD330. I listen using naim headline (1st version) gear. I would like to reach a new level in listening Pearl Jam music. I consider: 1. Senheiser HD-600 2. AKG K550 3. Grado SR325 4. Shure SRH840...

Silly question I know but I wanted to buy a Grado 325is and I don't know for sure the right one to pick (doesn't necessarily mean new). Pictures are deceiving and I don't usually buy headphones to return them later. I was wondering which one you prefer the most. Thanks

Hey all,     I just bought the Grado SR325is this week as an upgrade over my Studio Beats by Dre. I am currently running them directly out of the headphone jack in my Macbook Pro I7 Dual Core using the Fidelia media player with the FHX plugin. The majority of the music I listen to are live...

Hello!   I'm a bit of a newbie to high-end audio, so please forgive me if my question might be a little basic. I own (and love!) a Grado SR325i. I listen to rock, prog and metal (FLAC) through my desktop computer which has an Asus Xonar Essense ST. It has a built-in headphone amp, and I...

Well I bought my first set of headphones this morning. Cant wait for them to get here!

I currently have the SR80i plugged into an Audioengine D1 DAC/Amp at my home computer which is a pretty good combo. I was wondering if it would be worth it to upgrade higher up in the Grado product line or if it will be "more of the same".   I'm also considering the AKG Q701 or K702, however...

Hello everyone!   I heard good stuff about Grados which is great for Rocks and I listen to those genres in the afternoon in my room. Feeling to give it a try but afraid it might be slightly too bright for my taste as I tried the Sennheiser IE800 and don't like it. So my main question is how...

So, I recently sent my Little Dot 1+ back to China for repair. Before it gets back (this afternoon actually,) I'll have a shiny new HRT Music Streamer II to source it with. The upgrade bug has hit me again...   I've been considering a bunch of amps in the $300 range. The Schiit Asgard...

I'm using Grado SR325is. I own the NuForce Icon HD, but from some of my recent research it seems the HD's ~250 mW output at 32 Ohms might not exactly take full advantage of the SR325is. Would the HD / Schiit Asgard be a competent combo for SR325is? Or should I ditch the HD and Asgard idea...

Hi,   Owner of 325is serial 4386 here, living in Sweden. I use my 325is with Centrance DacPort but with great sound also from my old NAD amp. Like most owners I love these for the sound and I never even think of upgrading (unlike the DacPort which i like a lot but maybe find a bit clinical...
