No you!

Amazing both childish and senseless all in just two words

Lucky you have emoji's, the difficulty to express your feelings without them in the real world must be brutal

Not sure I see the relevance and equally unsure as to why you're on the Grado fan club forum if you don't like their headphones, I asked a genuine question
which I probably would have got more response and less emojis if I'd asked on mumsnet

Anyway, the forums and this thread in particular are full of fun guys who enjoy cracking a joke. We haven't gotten a straight answer from our best pal @jonathan c in probably 5,000 pages of posts. So take it in the spirit intended, all in good fun.

A bizarre criterion for choice of headphone …

Srsly? I was sure you chose Grados exactly for this reason

Yes, but you might think that in over 3000 pages there would be one person that might be able to answer a simple question based on experience, if I was
able to actually audition every set of Grado headphones then I wouldn't have needed to come to the thread but more unfortunately than ever I don't have
that luxury, still if I want see a load pointless emojis I know where to come.

Wow, I think i'll try another brand as it seems as if Grado's make people overly pedantic and obnoxious, the Grado fan club, the only place on headfi where they don't understand what mid forward means

Well, your tag fits...

It is "cheezy" to start out on a forum and then try to offend the regular patrons of said forum. Individuals that do it usually leave in short order and not missed.

The respondent to your question wanted you to define what you call mid-forward because your definition may mean something different to others (not everyone on this forum is a professional).

I started working in the audio industry in 1985 and even audio professionals have trouble agreeing on exact terminology.

For example, by definition most Grado headphones are "mid-forward", but what i call too much is not enough for others.

Most of the members of this forum own and like Grado or they would not be here...

Providing feedback on a manufacturer's products is a valuable component of the successful many companies.

The question may be simple to state; the answer, being perceptual, not so.
