I'm not sure if it's even meant to be an upgrade, per se, so much as a shift with the times. People responded to the bassier sound of The Hemp, and it seemed to bring people to the brand, so they're going to ride that horse for all its worth.

I didn't find it to be bassier than the RS2e. I'm guessing that all the people that came over the brand recently did so because of hype...and the people who stayed away from the brand for the past few years did so because of peer pressure (caused by bad urban legends...negative reviews by amateurs..."outdated" design...blah...blah...blah).

I never found the Hemp to be this revolutionary upgrade/change which could lead the masses back to the brand. The Hemp is like other Grado models -- it is better than some models, yet it is not better than every other Grado out there. I think it is just as good (more or less) than the RS2e and GH2. If I had though that the Hemp was better than those two I would own the Hemp right now.

SR325e with ttvj pads is great, but RS2e with ttvj pads is better!

Yes it is my friend , I also like that concoction myself.
I wrapped my TTVJ deluxe flats with a full circumference of electrical tape , I had to slice the tape vertically in half with a razor so it fits the pad without any overhang , a great sounding mod.

Which I think is smart on their end. Grado's ethos, which I respect the **** out of, is that they want their headphones to make music sound good, not chasing measurements. If they see that people are liking the warmer sound, they'll lean in that direction.

Hi guys. Posting pictures of some of my Grados was 5 minutes of drunk porn.. Not an ad. My mistake, sorry. But the flawless Hp1, sr 200 and the first 325 will be considered if the price is right. For the hp1, I think I have the box as well.. I think.. Not 100 prosent..

100usd for the 325?

My Bushmills didn't come with that snazzy bag. Kind of miffed but I probably wouldn't use it anyway. Looks like you have most limited editions, very nice collection.

BTW: the Shipibo pads sound very similar to the ttvj pads (but have a smidge more treble which is good) but are of course way more comfy.

does this apply to everyone?

Interesting observation considering the pounding the RS1e has been taking
pretty much since the day it was released.

I've really enjoyed my RS1e since I purchased then several years ago. At the time I was reading about "Frankenstein" RS1's. Mine were the version after that fiasco. I have a SR80, RS1e, Hemp, and HeadFi 2 (special). I've owned the 125, 225, and 325 in the past. I'm a BIG Grado fanboy. I know that in our community the RS1e's don't get a lot of love. Oh well, the consensus may be correct and I'm in error, or they sound great to me and it doesn't matter what the consensus is. Enjoy the music .

I bought today a Trafomatic Head 2. It is absolutely monster with my HP2i. I considered my HP2i a bit bass shy. Not anymore!
