=======================================
For me the GS1000i are summit-fi, they are that good.
I'm also of the opinion that Grado's are generally voiced for lower volume listening, which is why many complain
how bright and harsh they are - because they're listening at normal volumes for some phones but much too high for Grado's.
The closest analogy for how good they sound - like the Quad Reference Electrostatics speakers
which cost many thousands of dollars (£6,500). Of course driven by a suitable system.
For all of the mentioned Grado's I hear fantastic musicality.
Also, I'm not alone in my love for Grado's like the GS1000i, they are a cult favourite.
Very interesting. I'll have to try them out next chance I get. The loudness comment might be spot-on. I have a bass light electrostatic set that I love, but I love it more at higher volumes. At that volume I might not love the Grados. :/
