  The GS1K's arrived tonight, and to my surprise with a tan headband.
I sure hope these sound as sweet as they look for me…letting the WA6 warm up a bit then going for a nice listening stretch!
 

 
 
Apparently they are all shipping with the brown headband now Any difference between this headband and the one on the Bushmills?

congrats, they look great. And they sound...?

I agree with you, on the metal part, but classic guitar rock is really sweet on the HD 650s. But, yeah, when it's time for Pantera, it's Grado time 

Oh yeah man, Pantera! But are they better than Megadeath? Krutsch, I really liked your HD650's with my WA6 at our last hp meet. At this point, and given the holiday season, I'm gonna let Santa figure out if I've been naughty or nice enough for another set of hp's.

Makes sense on a $1000 headphone to include some leather straps for the headband...

They always had leather headbands on their higher end headphones...

the one problem with those brown headbands from Grado is any hair or scalp grease will stain them.....but they are very comfy, i all the pads were that thick and soft.

Agreed. I wonder whether you can buy just the brown leather headband an replace the one already on the headphones... That being said, I am not sure it will work well seeing as the mahogany is much darker on the other series.

I wanted to wear my SR80i's outside, however... Montreal happened...

Problem is they aren't exactly cheap.
