Just wanted to share my excitement that I'm getting my first pair of Grado's this week, SR60's.

I've done a TON of reading, and this seemed like the best jump for me.

My budget has to encompass these Grado's as well as a new pair of in-ear buds, the sony mdr-ex51's aren't cutting it any more.

Anyways, looking forward to becoming more involved in the forum and getting some advice.

Grados!

Congratulations! Also, welcome to Head-fi...sorry about your wallet!

Congrats lindmar

The SR-60's are excellent headphones, they'll serve you long and faithfully!

SR-60s are awesome. My intro into some good sounding audio (although i upgraded to 325is in about 2 mo.

Enjoy them, and, in time, look to see whether an SR-125 or SR-325 is in your future.

Run away! Run far away while you still can and there is money left in your wallet!

 

[lindmar]

LOL.

I even read on another website to stay away from this site if you value you're wallet.

Well, now I've got about $100-$125 left to pick up some decent buds for the gym. The sony mdr-ex51 are giving me a headache now..

And after that... a RS1, maybe. Anyway, congrats! I was in this hobby for years but haven't hear the SR60 yet.

Instead of buds you could consider Koss KSC-75 clip-on headphones. Great sound for very little money.

Congrats- my SR 60 are still my one of my fav HPs. Def fun.

I strongly considered getting SR-60s or SR-80s, but went with Sennheiser 280 Pros last week. I'll get some Grados eventually! Let us know how you feel about 'em after you listen to em!

 

[lindmar]

Funny, I was strongly considering a pair of 280's...

That was another choice. I want to try the Grado's as a first pair of open air cans..

I've always liked being closed off to the world around me, but want to give these a shot at home. I've just read too many darn good things about Grado's to not give them a shout.

They are my first set of decent headphones as well. You'll love them, I guarantee it.

Congrats.
The SR60 was my first step into this hobby, and introduced me to the wow factor.
Someday I will have them bronzed and hang them from my rear view mirror.

The Sr 60s are great hp to introduce you to high end sound. For use in the gym I wouldn't recommend iems. As suggested earlier look at the Koss KSC75s. If your looking for a new set of iems too then take a look at the AL iM716s from Buy.com. The price is unbeatable.
