They are awesome!!!!!!!!

They are even comfortable!!!!!

awesome, so lively, and forward.

GREAT BUY!!!!!!

Only problem is the jack has a fat surrounding thing, and doesn't fit well in my Zen Touch.

Great buy hobo! Did you buy them new? If so you might want to let them burn in a bit and then they will really settle down.

About the fat plug, I know what you mean...if you're so inclined lop off the old plug and solder on a new 1/8" plug as I did. Those Neutrik ones are quite small and look really good!

I bought it off appar, so I presume they are burned in.

Had the same problem with my iriver player. Got something like this to go with it: http://www.jacksmusicfactory.com/def...productid=3602 - Radioshack might have them too, not sure.

I think the amp that's coming in will fix the problem, because it doesn't have anything that can get in the way.

btw, am I weird if I think the grados are comfortable, and the XD200s andthe HD201s arent?

Got mine Tuesday, listening to them at work while I type this..they do sound great..mine are new so they aren't burned in, not sure if I'd hear the difference anyway...

I also picked up a set of the koss ksc-75's, I figured for $20 they'd be great knock around headphones...The ksc-75's sound amazingly good...I'm shocked that they can make these things for only $20.

anyone here think that Koss could get away with selling the KSCs for higher priced if they put more durable parts in them?

 

[funnytimes]

what do they smell like?

 

[DaHoboFest]

? interesting question, I'm not sure, still trying to figure it out.

 

[ajt976]

It's kinda minty!

I've read many a thread about that pungent 'new Grado smell', quite interesting responses...

 

[XxATOLxX]

Grado SR-60s are great phones. I put it up on +10 bass boost and it just kept on playing without distortion until it was really loud, my brother actually liked the headphones once I did it

 

[funnytimes]

to me, smells abit like very old fragrant soap

 

[DaHoboFest]

yep some sort of desinfective detergent. (I don't know what it's called.) Hospitals used to smell like it. Sometimes clothes from mailorder companies have that same smell.
