Exciting! Safe ! Yeah that's uranium all right, it did come with a geiger counter though so you could see exactly who in the family you had contaminated and hazzard a guess on life expectancy
The Xbox and playstation pale in comparison for sheer adrenaline rush action

I had that set too, but I sold the uranium to some crazy scientist who was trying to build a time machine.

I can inform you it worked

Finding new love with Grados with Classical music. In my humble opinion, nothing has quite the soul of most classical music. And nothing quite has the soul of a good Grado. I’m in heaven.

Any classical recording you can recommend sound quality-wise? I am having trouble getting to like classical music and maybe an excellent recording will help

No problem. Try Charles Dutoit: The Planets. This is a Holst classic and comes highly recommended. If you want something more peaceful and tranquil try Andras Schiff -Mozart Piano Concerto No. 8 & 11. If you like those at all send me a message I can recommend more.

Just found my sons SR60 out in the garage.

Took a while but I finally got a hair blown out of the left driver.

Put a hair dryer on the cable and got it nice, took some tape to the hairy ear pads....LOL

Cleaned the outside up ......now enjoying a nice transparent sound. I have not listened to any Grado's for some time.
What a great headphone for the small price. Listening to some Biscuit Miller.

Im really excited for a new LE and I hope it comes very soon.

Here is my playlist for phones:

Try the Mozart Clarinet track. Great for sound stage and imaging.

Job completed apart from new shipibo black classic gimbals and locks and maybe a turbulent camel headband.
Gold plated 3.5's this time to match up with the woods, cups cleaned up and topped off with a tri metal 8 core 4.4mm balanced cable.

Have some SR225, but the pads were toast.

I slapped the SR60 pads on for now....how much does a set of L cushion cost these days ?

I finally finished up a review of the Grado GS-2000e vs the Spirit Torino Super Leggera. Long story short, they sound similar (warm and full with crisp detail) and I love them both, however I prefer the smoother transition between sub-bass and midrange of the Super Leggera and the build quality is pretty stunning. Just like Grados the distance of the driver to your ear is super critical. If you've wanted a pair of Grados but didn't want to deal with a fixed cable these are probably the closest thing on the market. Note they do not have the Grado house sound with the very forward upper midrange.

I do like the Spirit headphones build and looks, but keep it with the real deal..

Tri metal?

I‘m a huge fan for pad-, tube- and even OP amp-rolling.
Maybe give these a try:
https://www.amazon.com/Geekria-Replacement-Headphones-Cushion-Earpads/dp/B0155XZJ4I
(EJZ-0047-03 the ‘donuts‘)
Not to far from the L-pad sound and to most more comfortable. And available for about 10$.
Geekrias F-pad replacements:
https://www.amazon.com/Geekria-Replacement-Headphones-Cushion-Earpads/dp/B00TGCDHL2
(EJZ-0047-01 ‘holed flats‘ or ‘flats with hole‘)
Both are adding a little between 60 and 80 Hz. Not much, but audible.
The donuts are tipping the highs a little in the direction off SR325 without changing it‘s mids character.
