Reckon they'd go well with the Large ones? Or just the L Cush replacement stock BA ones?
There was guy on here a year or two ago that bought them for GS3000e's, I think, and they wouldn't fit on the larger driver headphones.

He may make them for the bigger ones now.

The GH2's LOVE the Beautiful Audio pads!
Just searched and that's actually a company , was thinking you were joking with Beautiful, as in Grado is beautiful:)

Even the bigger ones are too small for the GS3000e. It was good for the GS1000i, but too small for the 3000e

What pads do you use on the GH2? I have a pair.

Also! Is there any extended rod available? I have a big head and I'm maxed on the rods and with the G pas, still could use a bit more.
It is my only Grado with aftermarket pads which in this case are the hybrid leather with wool by Beautiful Audio.

I also very much still like the GH2 with stock L pads. They also look good and are extra comfy.

1 month later. I'm using RS2x half the time. These are honestly so good. sort of a bargain imo

RS2x is all about pads. I'll probably build a small measuring setup and then try as many pads variation to try to get the most neutral FR but the RS2x is TOTALLY dependent on the pads acoustical properties.

Not too sure about that because Joe likes his Grado's with the factory cushions in almost every case, although they do look like G cushions to me. I on the other hand, exclusively use Grado G cushions on both, my GH1& GH2 so it's possible you're thinking of me.
As far as I knew, I thought BA only did G-cushions and his own pads. Of course I could be wrong about that. It wouldn't be the first time. Not even today.:grin:

BA also does L cushions because Joe had given me a pair to use with my RS1i.
I could be wrong as well, so we'll see what Joe has to say, but again, they certainly look too big to be L cushions which is why I questioned it in the first place, and I would be surprised if Joe was using G cushions on his GH2.

The Beautiful Audio pads are very comfortable and look great. I do have them on my GH2. I posted a photo or two of them recently. If anyone wants to see a better shot of them just let me know.

You’re right Joe, only have the Beautiful Audio pads on my GH2 that you heard. All my other Grados have the pads they came with other than having Grado flats on my PS500e & RS1e.

I just checked and Beautiful Audio does make a G cushion which is available only in his hybrid version with leather outside and merlino wool inside. The L cushions are available as described above and also all leather. I have the L hybrid on my GH2.
