Well, yes, that answer is forced. Did you expect them to admit that they made a cheaper model a year later with the same driver, thus screwing over any dealers who may still have PS2000e stock? They know that any e-mail response would be widely spread. It's in their best interest to say that every model has a different driver, even when comparing something like the SR60(e/x)/80(e/x). Even if the SR60(e/x) and SR80(e/x) drivers really were different, some have said that they can't tell the difference.
I actually don't think they specifically said the drivers were different... They just said they're very different overall with different sound so I agree with you, they're not really saying anything.

The driver itself is only part of the equation. Matching with the different materials and woods (where it applies) and what treatment or modifications to the driver along with any damping that may be utilized to achieve the sonic results desired. The PS2000e took well over a year of development and fine tuning to bring to the market the performance that eclipsed all that went before it.
Headphones are more than just their parts like many fine things in life.
I have both the PS2000e and the GS3000e. In my opinion they are/were both price tiered right where they belonged and you got what you paid for. A nice habit on Grado’s part and a tradition that began right after Joe Grado first opened for business.
Hi. I am thinking of maybe sell my HP1s.. They have no use beeing in my closet. Before I put them out on Ebay, I will put you people first in line. They are in super condition. But with no flat pads though and box. Thinking 1200 US dollar plus shipping from Norway. I dont know how much shipping will yet. Also have the SR200 with black star drivers and the original SR 325 if someone are considering bying these. Fell free to PM me.
The lettering on that HP1 is almost perfect with only a minor nick on the "1000" on the right side. You'd probably be able to get more than $1200 for that. So many HP1/HP2s have had their lettering scratched off. Then again, the word "polarity" on both sides is significantly scratched off. Hmm.
