Haven't heard HD595s but to say SR225s "massacre" Radiohead is a bit of a stretch. OK Computer sounds awesome on 225s, as do the rest of their albums. It gives them a warm forward sound and solid liquid bass, all of the Grado's strong points. Blur might be a bit bright, not a huge blur fan. The Cure might sound kind of thin I guess, but in no way would I agree that SR225s massacre Radiohead.
BTW, how do you like "In Rainbows" ?
P.S. If you decide to go 225, TTVJ has a good price on them. Just a heads up. You can get a few more percent off if you opt to sign up for the newsletter. Have them email you a quote then use the link from that.

I consider Radiohead, Blur, The Cure as rock bands, and those three bands would be massacred by the SR225s. On the other hand, Tool and A Perfect Circle would be much better on the 225s. |
