No, I'm talking about well produced Prog-Metal albums that sound great on my Verite Closed. And by the way I'm feeding them with a $2000 setup. My conclusion is that the RS1x are specialized headphones aimed toward classical, acoustic and jazz music. I'm not sure I would not recommend them outside of those genres of music.
That's cool.
I'm taking it as the recording not being adequate and the VC being a less revealing, more forgiving than the RS1x. I

Well the VC are slightly more revealing than the RS1x. I don’t know, maybe it’s a problem with my RS1x.
I understand that the VC are like double or triple the price of the RS1x. They should be better. Why not just use those. You should move away from Grado headphones based on what you have said. No headphone brand is for everyone. And obsessing will never lead to contentment.

Yes I know it's not fair to compare the VC with the RS1x...

I'm still a huge Grado fan, and I hope that their next Heritage headphones (GH5?) will give me the sound that I was expecting with the new RS1x. I.E. A real version of the Hemp on steroids.

Interesting, I have never tried the PS2000e.
They are outstanding! One of my fav-our-ite set of headphones. I will spare you my sonic description…😄

Wow the PS2000e are $3,599.00 in Canada. I cannot afford to buy another expensive headphones like that after having purchased the VC and the Heresy IV.

Or maybe a new "HF" model with the x driver

I have to say I'm really enjoying my SR325X a lot lately with stock pads wearing them "lower" on my ears.

After 100 hrs. of playtime they are getting smoother and guitars have more bite.

Nice. From what I heard the 325x are 95% as good as the Hemp, so I'm sure they're great.

The biggest mistake I made was to sell my GH1 and my GH2..
