That is one claim to fame that Grado has, I don't know of any other headphone that has such a large selection of earpads to choose from.
I just ordered TTVJ flat pads last night to hear if I will like them with the RS1i's, I do believe these pads used to come stock on the RS!'s, so I figured I'd try them out.
BTW, I'm starting to enjoy the RS1i's more and more being that they have some more time on them. Last night was the first time I relaxed on the couch and just listened, and I must say you don't have to critically listen to them to hear everything, you can actually relax and hear everything without trying, which is very nice. I still think the price is a little steep. but from what I'm hearing as they burn-in the price of them burns away! I think I can say its a safe bet that they are staying home with me!
Thanks for your info on the TTVJ flat pads guys. I've already ordered them so I'll just have to wait to hear them and know if I like them or not. If I find them to boomy on the RS1i I can always try them on my SR80i's to give them a bit more lower end.
looks like a great solution but TTVJ has these listed at $35 .. seems a bit excessive

While it does seem a bit high, it is still much less than the replacement velour ear pads for the Sennheiser HD-600 / 650 headphones. Those pad replacements run about $58.00 before shipping. But, you have to take into consideration, the TTVJ flats are made to the same specifications as the originals and are apparently made by the same company that made the pads for Grado.
the rs1i's have arrived !
