That's interesting as I always found the wooden Grados quite colored (not a bad thing, I love my colored L3000). Different ears, different impressions.
It is true that "Doing what no other headphone is able to do" applies to several phones (I wouldn't say "most", though) but none of them is as "limited" as the PS-1 is (L3000G doesn't really count) so competition is likely to be fiercer.

I think we agree that pure sound refinement and weight, while sacrificing soundstage give the PS-1 it's place which was why I was interested since the GS-1000 can sound thin like the RS-1. That's why I kept my Senn 600 for a meaty midrange. |
