Sweet. The metal housing with the inside wood looks great. I can't wait to read the impression.

Indeed, I'm sure many people are waiting for the impressions! The more prior Grado experience with their high-end 'phones, the better.

In before some guy who brought their PS-1s:

Quote:

I A/B'd them with my PS-1s, and they sound almost exactly alike.


I would lol, and then feel sad for not having 450$.

EDIT: This is all just a 'what if' and has not happened...yet.

what?! The HF-2 sound almost exactly alike the PS1?

Is he sure it sounds exactly alike or just similar with the PS1 more refine in every area?

I would really like to know how deep the bass goes and how textured versus the PS1/PS1000.

At least you know it hits hard in the bass.

Reread his post. It's quite confusing, but I see that as some kind of speculative quote he threw up. Like a what if someone said this scenario.

I looked over the entire thread just now and no one has made that comment.

I heard they are better than the orpheus... I bet they'll be awesome regardlesss, and well worth the money. I personally think they are one of the most gorgeous grados ever made! Maybe just below the HP2, I like the look of those cups better than the PS1, and I think I like the metal look better than wood. Looks more industrial and useful rather than exotic and luxurious

You must be mistaken, because I heard they sound like rainbows after a sun shower with a light summer breeze. I also heard they cure acne and rescued a child from a burning building.

In all seriousness, I don't think anyone has posted impressions from the meet yet...

I just got my hands on the HF-2. Unfortunately, for only a couple of songs on a solid state amp, none of which I'm familiar with and I didn't have my RS-1 for comparison.

The most I'll say now is that they are Grados.

If you love the house sound, you won't be disappointed. Fit'n'finish is good - I like the leather headband and cups.

Also, these had flats on. I'd think they'd change with bowls.

I'm happy with the HF-2 and want to give it a longer listen. Todd, you can run my card right now.
