After watching DMS's review of the SR-325x I decided to try out the Geekria pads he recommended for my SR-225e's, completely transformed the headphone for me, better soundstage, more sub bass, but most importantly they have really smoothed out the hotness in the treble, this is the first time I've pad rolled one of my headphones and it's been a welcome surprise, with the stock L pads the 225e's were unlistenable on my current headphone amp, for now at least, it has staved off the temptation to upgrade (?) to the 225x.

How much volume do you need with Grado and DT1770 ?

I listen at the very lowest levels of volume. With Grado the volume pot is positioned at around 10 o'clock and DT1770 it is at 11 and the music is too loud. It turns on at 9. I am never above 12 unless I put a 75 or 300 Ohm resistance in between.

Mmm. So far I think the Tr Amp is the best choice

Exactly what I expected despite the F pads having less foam than the L pads. They can't price the F pads cheaper because that would be an admission that they're "worse" than the L pads they replaced.

Hope so. After reading several reviews, I think this is the perfect match.Think this will be perfect with my cans. Anyone tried it with the new x-series?

Does anyone have, or has anyone posted, a pic of the braided cable on the Grado Hemp? Do you think it will be more durable or is it only an aesthetic change?
