Hello everyone, my names Paul.
I had a pair of SR60i and a pair of iGrado.
I sold the SR60i and upgraded to the E series iGrado.
I've ordered a pair of custom made Senn-Grado's.

I think I have to admit I'm a Grado-holic!

Because I now want another pair of SR60i's, but I want more.......
I need to order a pair of 325is and next year I'm jumping on a pair of RS1's.

I yearn after a HP-1 or HP-2 amp......

And the worse thing is.

I DONT WANT HELP!!!


:D :p :D :p :D

Or is it the best thing.....

ALSO,

If anyone here collects Rolex watches: I have a watch that I inherited and willing to sell it, I need to get it valued first at the dealership here in Montreal, and it may need some repair to get it going again.

Note: This is a "Ladies" watch, could make your woman quite happy :wink:

"Gradoholic" discount applies if you guys are in this group :D

Edit: photo and bold text :)
With Christmas just around the corner nice gifts for females can come in handy. My sister gave me this Explorer I, which I wear all the time, for my fiftieth birthday and I'd like at some point "get her back" as the kids say. Geez, it's been eight years so I'm a little slow.

Pictures of the pristine, new (not "like new") 1990-vintage HP1000 HP1 that arrived two days ago.  I photographed all pages of written material large enough to be read, as well.

Simply fantastic sir! I'm so jealous. You've got my vote for headphone score of the year.

I just realized that none of the pictures that I took of my new Grado HP1000s showed a very handy feature... the knurled screw that allows you to lock the headphone "stalks" into place at a particular height.  This is an improvement over the present friction fit.  It was at the back of all the other pictures.

Seriously though, way to go :D. I am getting a little more getting experience before I go off to do my Master's in Geophysics.


Funny you should write that.  In my undergrad work, I came across some studies indicating that music affects the brain in a similar fashion to drugs.  Not enough to really engage my fellow objectivists in a fully-reasoned discussion, but enough to make me realize that there is more to the subjective side of things in this hobby than how sound hits the ears and gets processed by the frontal cortex.
 
In other words, this here hobby not only may be an addiction unto itself, but a possible means to treat actual drug addiction, along with other therapies.
 
In which case, Grado would certainly be one of my drugs of choice, along with planars like the Alpha Dog and 400i.

Now that looks really older than they are. Real vintage.
