Hey,
A friend's birthday is coming up and I'm thinking of picking up a pair of SR60 for her. Aesthically, I think Grado screams her name since it's all retro and stuff =).
She'll be coming from iBuds so I'm sure she'd appreciate the quality difference. If not, hey... SR60s aren't that much of a cost anyway. She does love music.
She has a iPod Mini... which I heard had the worst sound quality of the bunch. And she also spends much time on the subway to commute. She's been happy with her iBuds for now, so I'm wondering if Grados would let even MORE sound in compared to those?
Possibly getting a set of closed cans or IEMs is a better idea for her (subway noise) but it's possible aesthetics is more important.....
Are there any closed, retro/grado-looking cans that are decent?
thx!
