That’s great.
Do you find them more laid back than the PS500e and SR325?

I’m really enjoying the knock off GS with SR60 drivers.
The Rose wood cups less so.
The Rose wood have far too much bass at the moment and I need to retune them.
Less holes in the back of the driver and less damping .
I weigh each amount of damping I use with digital cartridge scales so I’m keeping a note of the different amounts make.
Can say for certain I have over done the Rose wood this time.

I have found a enjoyable difference going balanced on both sets.
More authority more control and sound stage gains.
The Questyle M15 GS cup combo is really good.
Amazing sound quality for not a lot of money.
The SR60 I picked up for £14.50 from eBay with a broken cable.
Complete bargain .

I hope you do a GS build I’m looking forward to it.
The only problem is the cups.
As I have said the earphonediy cups are a bit sketchy build wise.
They make up for it in the sound stakes and that’s all that matters.

I successfully used micropore surgical tape to cover two out of the four holes I poked in my SR325is mod. This tightened up the bass to where I wanted it.

Yeah definitely more laid back than the 500's which I find work better with the magni 3+ or direct out of the M17 the top end of the 500's with stock pads I find a bit to much for me so I'm going to try out the bowls on them but I've got a pair of shipibo pads coming this week to try with them as well, the 325x work well with everything pretty much. They are all different but in a good way, which is the point otherwise we'd all have one pair , I'm just finding out what works best on what set up and genre of music. Yeah I'm still thinking of the GS from earphone DIY labs and trying out a selection of drivers, the cups depending on what they look like will more then likely be sanded down and ebony black stained, at that price I don't mind modding the drivers and everything else and having a good play with them, for the genuine grados I have no problem cutting the cables, changing gimbals and such but prefer to leave the drivers as stock, more fun times ahead

I just realize that RS are on ears, I’m not so fond of. Also I believed that GS have better soundstage than HE6se, HE6se have very good imaging but not the widest soundstage.

All Grados are on-ears.

If not for the fact he reads the fine print on the Grado boxes, he was about to polish his cans with single malt. He takes them looking good that seriously.

But, fortunately, he realized that alcohol is not good for wood, all in time to avert a disaster!
