I am really happy with the Grado GS1000 headphones..and have found that the Black Dragon recabled version I prefer VS the stock version.
Spoke with John Grado about this a few Fridays ago, and the GS1 was in fact made and tuned on the RA-1 amp, so it is not a huge surprise that those mate well but use the amp too with an EM custom Tube amplifier, Mcintosh Mc2255 Solid-State, MPX3 Slam SE, and some nice vintage SS's.
I find the note roll-off, imaging capabilities, and comfort to be the best of any Grado.
