Would getting Bowl pads for my 60i's be a good thing? And if so, which ones should i go for? The only ones in amazon are the L cushions made by Ear Zonk. For $9.99. But i think they look a bit different than other bowls I've seen.

Thanks for any help.

IMO, using the (L) cushions on the 60i's would be a real nice improvement over the (S) or quarter modded (S) cushions, I personally didn't like the (G's) on my 80i's/325is's.
I also noticed that Amazon only has the Ear Zonk cushions (which I never tried), but I wouldn't use a knock off. You can get the (L) cushions from Cruthfield.
 
  So I just bit the bullet and bought me some GS1000's.....I am very excited to hear these!! I am pretty sure I am going to like them, but everyone is so divided on these headphones.

Congratulations, can't wait to hear some comparisons to the RS's.

i had previously referred to not liking the g-cushes on the rs1i, today, i was thinking back as i was going between the gs and rs,
and i got to thinking, that i might have been mistaken, sure enough, after popping the g's on the rs1, that i was indeed mistaken.
the g's sound pretty good, further listening to be done !

here's the MAD Ear, all tubes sylvania, i got some others in the deal, i may do some rolling tomorrow
it really sounds great, the rs1i, the gs1000i, i would imagine it would sound great with any grado
 
 


what was really surprising, was how well the lyr compared to the MAD, it wasn't the slam dunk i thought it would be,

Liking the (G's) on the RS1i's this time around may be because of the MAD!
Have you done any comparisons for differences, (not which is better) between the RS's/GS's? 
 
Also just picked up my new set of Sylvania 6SN7 WGT's this morning from the seller, being one of the tubes was buzzing through the driver, letting my equipment warm up, then going into my own world for a few hours!

hey, i really just passed along the deal that was given to me, glad to do it !
 
what was even a bigger surprise to the sound of the MAD, was how close to the MAD the lyr is, i had just gotten a pair of telefunkens ecc88's AWESOME

just getting started with comparing, they are different, but can't give too many details yet, haven't got a handle on either with the MAD yet, i'll be sharing as we go along,
i'm not one for taking notes, doing "comparisions" or reviews, just my thoughts, feelings on the fly as they develop , stay tuned !
