Remember to answer the phone.
Thats some nice pictures. To snap sharp close-up pictures, use the macro function on your camera. The flower icon.

Very nice pics. As an HP-2 owner I know the beauty of these cans is more than just superficial. They are truly special and wonderful cans. Another vote to put them in the MoMA.
I love my HP-2's and HPA-1 Amp combo. Aural bliss.

I would like to apply to join the HP club. These are heirloom-class pieces of art, and definitely deserve to be at the top tier of dynamic headphones.

They are about as heavy as any set of headphones (probably about the same as the K1000), but the weight and solidity just make them seem even better built (except the lettering, which seem to come off pretty easily from the looks of all the HP2s around).
Which reminds me, I saw Joelongwood's HP1 last weekend at the NY Meet, and that was prestine! It could have passed as New Old Stock. Simply amazing condition.
Here are some of Joelongwood's headphones as published in Stereophile:
Mine is also in that picture on the upper left!

My dad is rocking classical on the HP-2's while my mom is doing Elvis on the Music Series One right now. Just wanted to share the love
Now I have an excuse for having lots of headphones

why cant we get those little screw on "L" and "R"s for other Grado models?
Also, why is the metal driver housing (sonically) superior to one made from wood?
