Maybe it's time to listen to some music and relax....don't take it personal

Keep it civil gentleman. No need for any jab

Or buy another headphone brand if Grado is so annoying. It is what it is. Like it or leave it.

Or bury another headphone brand if Grado is so annoying. It is what it is. Like it or leave it.

That's what a lot of people do unfortunately, it's sad that I've seen comments from so many people leaving Grado as a brand or refuse to try them because of these things, as a fan of the Brand I want to see it do as well as it can

+1, now listen to this song with your Grados

Noted although for the record I wasn't the one that made it personal, I wish people in this group would stop projecting their experiences onto others and dismissing them as a result, this seems pretty endemic to this group, I've seen it happen quite a few times already

Sales are not my problem, I have what I want. If Grado Labs is not happy with sales, they'll make a change. If sales are good, they will continue on the same tack. If sales drop off, they will likely make a change. The brand has been successful for decades, and change is risk. As long as it's working for them, why change?

What? Is assuming intent something you do for fun? Stop making stuff up

You're gaslighting again, this may be news for you but peoples experiences vary. Imagine that

Jesus christ you actually said "gaslighting" in an argument about headphone pads. I'm surprised you didn't say I assaulted you.

I am... genuinely stunned. I'm walking away from this thread until the stupid dissipates. I hit my limit just now. Have a good one everyone.

Good points. Wouldn't it be in all of our interests for Grado to increase its customer base? And to work on certain annoyances the current user base has? I'd like to think Grado cares about their customers, as I'm sure they do. Brands do get complacent, there's no harm in asking for improvements

This is literally what you've done , "the stupid" should dissipate with you gone. Is any of this pettiness necessary?

I'd only claim you assaulted me only if you actually did assault me, unlike some people I'm not a fan of making stuff up

Thank you.

Are you really getting in a fight over a peace of FOAM?

It became an argument based on certain responses and what they were implying but whatever

Back to Grados, has anyone tried the he5xx? From its description it sounds like a contender for one of the most Grado like planars considering they're being described as aggressive and fun? Wondering if anyone here has compared them to their Grados
