  Does anybody know if the cables on the older RS1 headphones are longer than the cables on the RS1i.
The cables seem longer on my pair now.......like maybe 7 ft.
I do not remember my RS1i being this long, but it has been awhile since I have owned them.....might just be my imagination playing tricks on me
size]

I do believe the older Grados had longer cables on them…my RS1i is no way 7'.

  No it has a "brick" power supply! It has smooth regulation but made an annoying external noise.
I would only look for buying the Joseph Grado psu only cause i'm curius what's inside.


personally i have the idea that the Joseph Grado products are of higher quality than the grado labs products.
 
(not to say that the Grado Labs stuff is crap, but stuff like the plastic rodblocks and so show a difference)
 
got any pics of the "brick"?

Sure they are better quality and more sophisticated that john's era but on the joseph's power supply i think you pay more for the cable!
 
The psu i had is the 3rd of this post :http://www.head-fi.org/t/647205/grado-hpa-1-gs1000i/30#post_12300630

Just bought myself a pair of SR225e's for £75!, should be here by Wednesday, can't wait to try them, have been an AKG man for over ten years, currently I own the AKA K612 Pro's, will be interesting to see how they differ, I like open cans and the older I get the more I'm really appreciating mid range frequencies.

yes'sir the older Rs1's have the longer thinner cable then (most) of the rs1i. Early rs1i still had the longer thinner cable from the older rs1 models if I remember correctly.

  I would like to order one of those Grado RCA cables, but I have a problem. I admit that computers are not my forte, but that link brings me to what looks like a German website. This may surprise you, but German is not my forte either.

Help me....please!

 
 
i can tell that German isn't your strongest point from the fact that you think Dutch is German :wink:
 
i think the best thing you could do is to email them, asking if they ship to [your country], if the cost would be ridiculous high, and that you need some guidance in paying (most dutch people know their english quite well so i have no doubt that they'll assist you very well)

If you read my post carefully, you'll see that I've said ''....what looks like a German website'', I said ''looks like'',  because I wasn't 100% sure it was German.

Depending how much the total cost will be, I might order a 2 meter cable. Hmmm! wait a second, this means that I'm going to have an all Grado chain here, a Grado cartridge, a Grado amp, a Grado cable, and Grado headphones.

If these cables are sold in other countries, why doesn't Grado sell them here?

Damn Canadian ''Monopoly'' money! it would cost me close to $300 CDN for the Grado 2 meter RCA cable.

Yeah, that's a very good question, worst case, TTVJ could sell them.

Shouldn't one be able to get them from Grado?
