I suspect at the Pokemon center they don't really know -- they are just inferring that the actual headphones are SR80x because they know it's not a freebie extra. I suspect given the price differences of the different SKUs for those Pokemon 'phones, that there are varying underlying models and someone just made a mistake and copied/pasted.Let‘s call it at least a public relations desaster.
To experience more binaural stuff, look here:Good to hear, I hope more people check it out, especially if you never listened to a binaural recording with headphones. Very impressive & fun.
judging by how confusing Pokemon Center is and how all of their models were wearing the headphones backwards in the pictures, yes, i would agree with you there. seems like the headphones themselves were thought out but everything else wasnt. i would be curious to know how Grado themselves view this collaboration and how the work was completed between each of the companies because viewing it from the outside...... eeek.Ask grado instead
Tell her the story of the Monarch butterfly and the stages it goes through from egg to butterflyJust got the RS1e in and not gonna lie they sound pretty good to me. Instrument separation is really good and soundstage as well. Idk sounds pretty darn good. Also, seems like I don’t have to turn the volume up more to keep enjoying. Definitely not as much oomf and bass as the 325x but I’m not super into heavy bass. Now only thing I have to do is explain to the wife why my headphones are a different color lol.
I have the original SR225 and now torn between modding this with leather band and wood cups or going straight with RS series. I recently bought an RA-1 amp although I know they have cheap metarials in it. At most I can keep them as a collection item.Just got the RS1e in and not gonna lie they sound pretty good to me.

I feel that the RS1e has a refined sound overall and actually prefer it sonically with original Grado flat pads. I have a vintage RS1 that I have had since they first were introduced. That first RS1 used the same flats as on the Joseph Grado Signature HP1000 series.I have the original SR225 and now torn between modding this with leather band and wood cups or going straight with RS series.

How does it compare to the Gilmore Lite mk2?The RA-1 actually still sounds pretty good with Grados considering it's cost and age. I was lucky to be able to find a Joseph Grado Signature HPA-1 amp. Very neutral, nice power. Grado has one their audition room. It is both AC and DC capable (2 x 9V batteries). Just the throw of a toggle switch in the back.
