hello, would like to kindly ask if anyone would have a good recommendation for a headphone with that setup... currently I have a grado sr-60, and an akg414p, not too impressive.. but I'm new to audio equipment... so I thought of trying it out... I'm listening mostly through my computer with the...

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...MEWN:IT&ih=006 I can't wait to wear these things ! Pretty sweet imo. I wonder if nikongod has them, oh yeah... he does! Good job then. What about derekbmn ?! Damn, he also has them, haha. I know there's other HFs who can chime in, speak up !!!

Hi, I'm looking to buy a new set of headphones, with possible a DAC and amp if needed.  The problem is, I can't really try out too many types at local stores due to limited selection where I am.  The main place I'll be using them is off of my pc, which has a Xonar DG in it, and I also have...

Hello i wil looking for new headphones for Rock, Metal, Vocals music. Budget 250$ :)))

I know there are countless posts of this question even a few from me so i apologize but i just don't know when to pull the trigger! But,  I just want more peoples opinions one more time before i do end up buying a new pair of headphones. I already own M-audio q40s to be my bassy headphones...

best grados alive. i liked but sold my rs1is long ago. i've had many headphones come and go, these and the sr60s will never leave me. mostly just listen straight from source. just wanted to show some love.       cheers                                ...

Need a quick answer, im currently stretching wires to make a stand for my coming headphones (this is to compensate my anxiousness ) All of grados/alessandros headbands are pretty much the same size are they? Can someone tell me how many cm is the width of the top part of the headband ? The...

I'm in the process of changing job and am going to spend a lot of time in an office on my own over the next few months and I was looking for suggestions for some new kit.   My source will be a macbook pro (mainly ALAC files) and I can spend ~$500, to include a DAC/amp and some headphones...

I'm not sure I understand the relationship between Alessandro and Grado. I know that they collarborate somehow and that many of their products look remarkably similiar, but that's all I know so far. Can anyone explain to me how they work together and what the sound difference is between their...

I'm working with a pair of Sony MDR-v600 headphones. I want to upgrade. I've got a good budget, so that's not in question. (The quality of the headphone will decide how much I wanna spend.) One thing though... I cannot find a good stereo shop in my area that has the high end headphones I've...

still havent found the perfect can for metal. still blows my mind that people recommend grado's for metal. bass is to weak and the hi's will make your brains leak out of your nostrils. seriously... what cans under $1000 are great for metal? like... strong kick drum with authority. a fun...

I live in an area in NC where there are few retailers of audiophile headphones. I will be visiting San Francisco, CA and surrounding cities for the first few weeks of January. I am interested in visiting a headphone retailer in the area during the period. The criteria that the retailer...

If you have a grado with worn lettering, buy the metallic silver sharpie. I am very happy with the results          

Would it be possible to replace the entire headband?    Reason being, I bought a used pair and the metal headband is loose (hardly any clamping force) and can't bend it back in to tighten the force.    Also I noticed the ms2 uses a plastic horse shoe curricular metal cup holder rather than...

Gentlemen, prepare yourselves. It's time.    For those of you who are unaware there's something new in head-fi that both Grado-heads and Sennheiser fans should hear: the SennGrado.   You may have seen or heard about them in the Grado Mods thread or the Non-Grado Driver thread. They're...

I have used my Grado sr80i for years and now I plan to buy a new headphone from Grado. I am interested in sr225i, sr325i and M2. I have a hifiman 603 DAP and sometimes I use my smartphone to enjoy music. I like pop and rock & roll most. Please help me to compare these 3 headphones.

Hey guys I have been using a pair of Sennheiser hd25 and Grado SR80’s. I like them both depending on the situation but I feel I’m ready to try something else.   I listen to mostly jazz and classic rock with a bit of hip hop mixed in. Don’t care for large amounts of bass.   Any suggestion?

is not including flat pads with every headphone.   I can't even imagine how much more they would sell, especially to the younger generation if they did this. Most people who own grados don't even bother to try out flats because they cost $35. Just a piece of foam but the switch to flats made...

Hey everyone!   I am new here to the forums, and tubes, and headphones in general. I am only 24 and recently into the hi-fi game. This is my first post, but I have crept the forums a lot lately trying to do some research, but as opinions go... I keep seeing both good and bad about different...

I have Magnum V4 drivers in SR325 (old one) cans. I am looking for a headphone amp for them. I generally listen rock and metal music and my budget is $900. What do you advice for these headphones? They don't have the same sound color with Grados and because of this, it is very hard to...

If you could find anything wrong with Grados, you could say that they’re too bright. If you’d like to get some bass out of them, you’d have to equalize. Rumour has it that if you do a little modding on the pads, by cutting out a quarter coin size worth of them you’d change the sound quite...

The following is a summary of the main characteristics of the new Grado PS-1 Pro headphones (i.e. all I could confirm): - Dimensions: very similar to RS-1 - Headband, etc.: very similar to SR-325 (not like HP-1000) - Looks: very similar to SR-325 (aluminium cups, no wood) - Earpads...

The rules are simple: name a headphone you own or have auditioned extensively, then present the single adjective you feel best describes the character of that 'phone. Please limit yourself to a single adjective. If the first that comes to mind has already been listed, please repeat it in your...
