Well, turns out our Grado Fan bo...I mean Grado fan/amateur Psychiatrist was right after all. Not only have I got O.C.D., but I also have A.D.D., wich means, Attention Deficit....wow! what a pretty bird...Disorder.
 
Would you believe that I aslo have E.D.S., wich means Emotional Detachment Disorder, of course, I was bummed, but then DR Wacko explained to me that I can say anything I want, and I cant be held accountable,
 
because I have E.D.D.
 
Anyway, regarding Grado's new GS2000, I took a close look at the pictrues, and after a few hours of close examination, I finnaly found the perfect setting on my microscope, yes, I said microscope, (O.C.D. remember), I noticed that the GS2000 have,
 
...hmmm!, looks like rain...where was I, oh yeah!, the GS2000 actually have blue drivers, now, in case you're thinking ahww! Stacker must be seeing things, check it out for yourselves, and let know what you think.

Love this one word post! 

 
Morning Phase on vinyl is my most listened to newer album by far. I'm hoping the vinyl of Radiohead's A Moon Shaped Pool is similar terms of the the master that's pressed to it being the best version of the album.

The more I hear about all these other Grado headphones the happier I am that I bought, and kept, my SR325e phones. I think these along with the RS2e are best bang for the buck in the lineup.

The 325is was the first headphone that I heard , that really was that detailed and transparent.

I would add the SR80e to that list.

John, where do you keep all of these inside the house…are they stored in their boxes?

 

[ruthieandjohn]

Mostly hanging. I do use the two boxes, as well as the one that came with the Bushmills, but the others hang on hooks at various places around the house. I do have the boxes for almost all of them, but I really do switch around them a lot so boxes and shelves would be cumbersome. Many hang behind or under a dust barrier. I am thinking about a tall book case with glass front, lighted interior, and about five hooks under each shelf.

Now that would be a nice idea!

Actually, I've been meaning to asking you guys about this... How concerned are you all about dust? I used to normally keep my cans (specifically my Grados) in the drawer below my schiit stack but my fiancé was nice enough to get me an awesome, hand crafted walnut stand. I keep my cans on display all the time now (GS1Ke and HE-1k). They certainly don't look dusty. I use them often enough that they aren't just sitting around collecting dust but... I do live in a small 1 bedroom apartment with 3 cats and a fiancé... Dust happens. 
 
Am I just being neurotic or what?

I have worried a little about dust, but I try to keep most of my headphones out of direct line of droppage of dust (i.e. under something like an awning) if not boxed.  However, for me at least, one of the surest remedies to dust is frequent use... the handling, teh vibration of sound, and even a carful blowing or shaking will knock off any accumulation.
 
And do not think that your headphones kept in their Grado box are immune.  The blue foam used in the HP1000 headphone box, for example, crumbles over the years and can fill Grado headphone openings faster than room dust!

 

[joseph69]

Am I just being neurotic or what? 

Not at all.
I place felt circles (the correct size) inside my grills to prevent dust from going inside. I obviously lay mu Grado flat and leave the paper on the adhesive side and place the felt side down against the grills…works great! My 009 is on a Woo stand and is always covered completely with a thin 100% cotton pouch which also work great!

i vacuum mine (very carefully) once in a while.
 
but as the drivers are moving things, displacing air, i don't know if it's even needed to do so.
