Hemp will scratch your itchdude I am not joking I want one of the high-end limited edition sets just to own one. I'm not big on the "Grado sound" but there is no brand of headphones that I find as romantic in concept as Grado.

Hemp will scratch your itch
Confession: I was going to pick up the Hemp but on Amazon (job gave me a $250 gift card) I was seeing them have the ship date repeatedly get pushed further and further back, so I picked up the Beyer DT177x Go. If I don't like them, I'll return them and wait for the Hemp.

Absolutely. It's not quite the typical Grado sounds. I have had all the low/medium Grado's including the Hemp. I cannot picture this at all as dark. PeriodDark for Grado (but easily changed with Geekria pads), but still light compared to the general phones market.

Given that they're all hand made, I wonder if he just ran out of the other thread that day LOL

FWIW: mine has also white stitching. Think I read somewhere that the headband may differ as well, leather/pleather?I never actually noticed OTHER hemps didn’t have it until you said something. Hmm....

Looks like the headband situation has been solved by Reddit. The headband on my Hemp looks to be the same one that was on the Oreo. I dig the look actually!

I'm angry because I couldn't get a set from Amazon but I know goddamn well I'm picking up a set of Hemp this year LOL.
YES on the LG cell phones with the Quad DAC. I have the LG V35+, and I struggle to hear a difference between it vs. my Laptop > Liquid Spark amp to drive my RS2e. I don't use too many of the options in the Quad DAC, just a little EQ for each of my ear / headphones, but it really sounds superb coming straight out of my LG V35+.... and even more surprising the LG phones with the quad DAC ...
Haha -- balanced blankets!! And, Yes, the white stitching on the Hemp headband is a really cool contrast.Here’s my current couch potato set up ... balanced blankets

Has anyone ever got stuff from rholupat.com?
Just got my PS1000e this week and wanted to share a modification to deal with the excessive weight. The idea is not mine, it was borrowed from an Amazon review.
Just had to find a wide belt, poke a small hole and it was done in 5 minutes. All I can say is that it's much more comfortable now and it doesn't feel so heavy on my neck
