That's definitely true for the GS1k...I was really surprised how much improved it was out of my Corda Jazz, whereas my other Grados all sound great even out of my Kindle Fire. That's one of the nice things about the 500s is that they sound great to me out of just about anything. The Kindle with the 500s is one hell of a great experience even with MP3 quality music. The GS1ks really NEED a good amp, though, and Im sure the same is true of the PS1ks.
Alright, thanks for everyone's help! I'll try and hear them in person but finding just one will be hard enough, let alone both of them side-by-side. Watching the FS forums sounds like a good idea.
I've done this mod with mu sr225i and my sr80... My magnum v5 build remains untouched because its such a different driver on it own. You should also dampen the back of the driver with blue tack or felt (do not cover the holes) it helps reduce odd vibrations and sound reflection inside the cup (the effect is minimal, but if you notice any echoing this will help mitigate it)
None that i can see.
Whoops! Joseph is right!

The RS1's look like a darker wood. I know they are both mohagony. Is each one different because they are hand crafted; is that why the RS1i looks darker - coincidence? Or is every RS1i darker? I like the darker look .

I noticed that every time I see a pair of wooden Grados, the color of the wood varies from dark to light (at least in photoghraphs), but because it is natural they will vary, but I also read that Grado cures their wood, but I'm not sure if it is dyed.

On my RS-2, the outside of the cups is lacquered*, and wood is of course a natural product, so there's always chance of change in saturation*.
I just changed my avatar, now showing the back of my RS-2. On screen same colour as in real life.

I bought PSK 1 month ago. It is astonishing good because so far the PSK is the only Headphones that can performs both Metal and Classical music so vividly and full of details.
