There you go,
http://fillion.ca/fr/ ask for Pascal, and tell him that you were referred by Serge.
Alright an update, I contacted fillion.ca from their website I think half a day after you made this post. They didn't reply for 4 or so days so I pulled the trigger on r70x instead. The r70x just arrived today. On the 4th day or something somebody else other than Pascal replied and told me that he's more comfortable speaking English than Pascal and apologies for the late reply. The ps500 is still available at the mouth-watering price of $250 CAD. The person got back to me 10 minutes after that informing me how much shipping is to my country and it was $110 so I have to pass on it (because well... I paid for the r70x 2 days before they replied).
The r70x just arrived 2 hours ago, it's non-fatiguing, great, great, great for my inner-ear condition, smooth trebles, do
almost everything better than the 325e
but conveying emotions in vocals . I don't know what
black magic Grado used that it's rendition of human vocals is
so amazing to my ear and for my slow japanese music genres. It's absurd how much I like Grado despite the fact that some other headphones, let's say the 400i and this r70x is
technically better.
The r70x is also not that different from Grado sound-sig wise, the difference being smoother more linear treble, a bit more midbass than the 325e (but not as much as the rs2e really), and more linear midrange. All in all, let's say I give the 2 headphones for a listen to somebody from my extended family, pretty sure the difference won't be as apparent to them as say, giving them a 325e vs. the 400i.
I'm not sure whether I'll ends up keeping this or selling it and get the Fidelio X2 instead. The x2 is really cheap here and I know it will complements Grado well. But the inkbleed issue (albeit maybe exaggerated), and the fact that it's rumoured to be end of production, made me hesitant to pull the trigger on them. On the other hand, r70x at $250 is pretty good deal in comparison to the US price of $350.
Honestly, the build quality is not all that good .It's sturdy and won't break anytime soon, but the cable exterior is quite *cheap-ish*. If people talk about how Grado is fragile or looks cheap or etc etc along similar line, they won't like the r70x build quality as much if not more.
My first impression when I unbox them is
"what is this crap?" I don't have high standards and in hindsight it's made of what I think is sturdy materials, but the first impression of the build quality is bad. I never think Grado build quality is bad (QC is another matter), but upon looking at r70x for the first time it reminded me of some posts that think so, the r70x is worse.
The worst thing about it is that the cable is quite a disappointment. I won't say major but I can see my Grado cable to last for 10 years or so. The rubbery exterior of the r70x won't hold past 5 years before it will becomes stiff from dust I think.
Well it sounds like Grado without all the bite is my succinct impression of them so, it can be good or bad depends on the person. Anyway, if newer members post asking for grado-like recommendations that doesn't
attack them, I might suggest them to audition the r70x for some variation.
