Well, that's his decision. If he wants to sell 200 dollar headphones made of plastic, that's his choice, but even with my SR-80's I feel like they should be made of sterner stuff considering what they're selling for. Just look at the V6's, they're bulletproof and can be had for like 20 bucks more. Anyway, I just relized I'm going to start a rant here, so I'll leave it at that. Still, I can both understand and critisize his decision.

Of course that is his right. Maybe he wants to be the Headphone Nazi.

NO HEADBAND FOR YOU. YOUR SKULL HURT?! TOUGH ****!

NEXT!

Great attitude. Customer last, and all that.

i wouldnt say that - grado labs has been known for their customer service - i have heard of parts being replaced out of warranty.

the only thing that puzzles me would be the somewhat conservative (read: strange) business plan of jacking up grado prices elsewhere in the world while keeping them relatively low in america.

I TOLD you people not to say anything about buying a headband for your SR series or even anything else at all; simply state, "My RS-2 headband is in bad shape, please send me a replacement headband assembly." Say nothing more and nothing less and you will be rewarded. John Grado himself sold me the headband for $50 shipped, and I'm sure he wouldn't mind continuing this service if others hadn't have clued him in regarding their true motivations. Sometimes a little discretion is wise.

Need to start a list of headbands from other headphones that can be used on Grados
