I have this weird preternatural ability to sense when new Grado's are about to drop. My GH3's just arrived this afternoon.
I've trailed off the forums after the switch to the new message board system, but two days ago I figured I'd swing by and see what's going on and... Grado's releasing not one but TWO new GH's... unbelievable.
I purged by Grado collection about a year ago (never really listened to them any more), so the prospect of owning a "cheap" Grado woodie was too hard to resist. Grado warehouse being 20miles away from me... just received my new GH3's a few mins ago. And you know what, they're about what I expected. A beautiful
headphone that won't knock your socks off, but it'll put a smile on your face.

Don't forget that like all Grados I have tried they will benefit and improve with playtime and breaking in, IMHO. Enjoy the ride.

And, they're super flipping light on the head, and outrageously comfortable. It's like they're not even on my ears.
And, and, they look pretty and they don't smell like cocobolo (good lord those GH-2's gave me a headache from the smell alone).
All and all, I think these are the Grado's I'll keep in the stable forever. It's a super fun, crunchy guitar/indie rock lovin', scrapper of a headphone, and I dig it!
