I've been looking far and wide for a nice pair of headphones. It started off with a blurb in a magazine about how great the SR60s were. After 2 years of research, looking at IEMs, Noise Cancelling Closed Cans, and everything in between, I've finally decided to just settle for the best entry level cans I could find and slowly save up for better. I settled right back where I started; on the Grado SR60s.
And so, perhaps not even a few hours from now, I'll be on my way to purchase a pair of these extremely popular headphones which I'm aware have led many a listener through the gates of official Audiophilism.
However I am aware that in no ways are these cans perfect.
I am also aware that that problem is what modifications are for.
So, my question is this: When I am at the store today, purchasing my first step into Audiophile status, what other materials should I purchase to perform what mods on my Grados so that I can get the most out of these cans?
Gee, that was a mouthful.
UPDATE! I ended up splurging on a SR80.
There's already an opening on them, so no quarter mod, right?
