Last night I bought the HPA-1, and HPA-2 matching DAC in my local adds., Lucky me, the guy was also including the also rare 3' interconnect with his Grado DAC-2. I got both for a reasonable $350. 

 
You'll never guess what happened next....the alarm went off, and I woke up realising that it was all a dream!

 
April fools John!

hahaha. i was so jealous for a moment.
 
i see that the "rare" interconnect is still available online? http://www.radiowinkel.com/a-14982591/grado-accessoires/grado-signature-interconnect/

It's all in good fun, I was targetting John, but he didn't reply, so either he hasn't read my post yet, or, he did read it, but he's too piss off at me, to comment without betting slapped on the wrist by the mods! I hope it's the former, what can I say, I love that guy!

Are they good quality cables?, would you say that they're worth the asking price?

Yes its a nice quality cable to me, i'm not a cable expert but I bought it more to complete my Joseph Grado Signature system (cable ,HPA-2, HP-2)!

I saw it, salivated over it, then crashed and burned... just didn't have a chance to respond.  Thanks!

That's good to know, thanks.
 
So you're one of the Lucky few that owns both the HP-2 and HPA-2.

 
If I decide buy the interconnect, I'm going to use it to link my HP-2 and HPA-2 too.
 
For power, do you use a PS-1, or batteries?

I wonder if Joseph was as torough in the making of his RCA cable, as he was with his headphones and amps.

I'm relieved, I was wondering if I had went too far by toying with your emotions like that.

 
By the way John, what do think about Grado's RCA cables?

Thanks! Actually I was abit more Lucky cause I built my system in less than month!
While I was making a deal for my HP-2, I became a deal for the HPA-2! When both arrived I realize that "something" is missing. A week later the cable arrived!
I'll post some pics tomorrow !
 
I use Batteries, I like it more in this way. I don't have a P/S-1 but I can build one!

If anyone has an SR-125 that they want to get rid of, I'm interested. Really, any inexpensive e series will do.

Thx!

Did you get a SR-125 yet? I have an i series (just the HP) I'm willing to sell.

I'm having one of those moments where you ignore all the other headphones and just reach for the SR60i. Doesn't make any sense, but it is very satisfying.

Congrats, they look sweet! Love that last photo with the tubes.

 
I recommend looking at Mercuttio's "Classifying versions of the RS1" thread. Yours look a lot like mine, Vintage B. What color are those drivers?

I thought they were just Grado classics, some use to call the classics, semi - vintage
