Monsieurs, allow me to thank you for your discussion of Grado high end (one certainly over my balding head). Threads do often morph into a wild Medusa on the loose. I am old man and going to buy my last set of headphones--either GS1000i because am Grado fan especially my 225i set.
But need to sell about three sets of cans do not like such as Beyer 880/32, ATH A900 ( to move on to options above and also invest in couple different amps (am loyal consumer of Channel Island Audio (web site q.v) before trying so hard to let go of my deep love and obsession with headphones and calm down and just focus on the music. As soon as I earn my posting stripes will try selling equipment to get what I am dreaming of.
This site is invaluable in so many ways! though hard to navigate--especially just for cruising because love the endless infinite shop talk except the indulgence in technical esoterica in the cryptic number spouting (shows you are true member of the club as must be), but as retired university English prof who worked 40 years @ 60 hours a week and every summer to survive I find the indifference to 2nd grade writing conventions is very hard on me as I spent my life trying to teach people to write effectively while using the conventions of our language for success in business world, like using caps correctly.
So much to learn but given the large number of people who won't even use caps start of sentence is so hard on sensitive soul like me. Don't beat me up--am old and half crippled, but so hard to respect what a person is saying if not even serious enough to use language at minimum in real world. Not trying to be superior, just an advocate of how correct writing is also effective writing for the small minority of us not raised on iPhones who have hard time reading such complete indifference to use of language as would be expected in government, business, and churches.
I pray my words not meant with ill will so don't beat me up--might hurt my Feeling. Or go ahead, beat me up. Common component of our culture as seen in adversarial TV or driving with middle finger always at the ready. Still, I like so many of the kind and gentle folk here who care to be part of our community.
Soon as sell some current cans, get the LCD-2 I hope, will go hide in woods and be heard no more this side of eternity.

Well you only had two capitalization errors, but plenty of grammatical ones. Are you typing on a telephone or is English your second language?
Welcome to Head-fi Darwin, I hope you have a nice thick skin and sorry about your wallet!
