Can you please provide a comparison of the GH1 to the GH2? I want to buy a GS3000e. I currently own a GH1.

Is this a trick question?
You're asking me to provide a comparison between the GH1 & 2 but telling me you want to buy a GS3000e?

Maybe he is hoping that you will convince him to buy a GH2...therefore saving a lot of coin.

And this is exactly what I did.

Grado got me into this mess.

Love the sound signature but loathe the comfort/construction, considering replacing the stock Grado headband with something a bit less abrasive, what's the usual go-to?

Have you heard the GS3000e?
I listen to both, the GH1&2 exclusively with Grado G cushions and had the fortunate opportunity to listen to the GS3000e in home on my gear for a week or so. My GH1 has way more time on it than my GH2, but at this point I will say that the GH1 too me has a more neutral, spacious sound than the GH2 which has more pronounced bass, as well as being more mid centric too my ears. My preference was both, the GH1&2 over the GS3000e. This is by no means to say that the GS3000e is not a very nice sounding headphone, but again, just not my preference.
Hope this helps.

The regular ttvj flat and deluxe ttvj flat look so much alike that they had to mark the deluxe pads with a little silver dot on the inside to be able to tell them apart. I doubt anyone could tell them apart in pictures alone when mounted to a headphone.

I'm a bit late into today's discussion regarding the flat pads, but this is exactly what I was gonna say also.
I remember when @Todd released the deluxe pads and he did a tour of the regular ttvj and deluxe pads and on that tour thread it was mentioned that the deluxe pads had a dot in silver marker to be able to tell the difference between them.

Here's a nice listen with Grado EDIT: There are only 7 out of 13 tracks, unfortunately. EDIT (again): Even if this isn't your taste of music, listen to 'Marcus"

There is a headband sold on amazon which has extra padding and is really soft (made out of sheepskin). Accessory House is the brand...but they are out of stock at the moment.

Thanks for the input on the GH1, GH2 and the GS3000e. At THESHOW in 2019 or 2018 I heard the GS3000e and liked it. Of all my headphones I own so far the GH1 is my favorite.

The Turbulent Labs headbands are nicely padded, awesomely handcrafted and looking great.

I bought some albums from https://www.highresaudio.com
I'm happy with the quality. See if you can get the ones you want there at a better price.

But I think CDs will still be cheaper. For some people it is worth it even to buy used CDs, rip them to flac, and then keep the CD or even sell it.

 

[Stevko]

Thank you
same price as tidal shop.
cd`s are cheapest

You understand. Thanks for clarifying.
