When did this happen? The main changes seem to be nicer cups, better transducers, and better cable.

and of course ps1000 silver, ps2000 gold (and "ps3000" kryptonite

) were introduced

They seem to be the same buttonless RS1 that Grado's been selling for a year now.

Mm, I'm pretty sure it's mentioned somewhere that the wood is shorter in length (basically, they don't stick out as much).

Neat, now my SR80s are 'vintage' lol

Someone had already seen the new extended enclosure for the SR60-225 in the wild.

*something I just noticed on the website, everything up to the SR125i now comes with flat pads?

Will people relentlessly believe that "better transducers" tune? Again.
However, when you're facelifting your lineup how to not put up something like this...

The 325i is now in silver : )

Looks way better in my opinion. Like the HP1.

I heardit at the Bristol show and I still prefer my 325 blacks!

Well, I remember reading that new silver 325i sounds different from older golden one, so there might very well be driver changes too, hopefully to the better.

When you put it that way, they sound like totally new Phones!!

i = improved?
the old school was not bad for my taste :wink:

- buttonless (obviously)
- round pegs
- serial number is scratched into the inside of each black square plastic peg holder thing, which i cant see on pics of other buttonless RS1s
- also serial # burned into the side of each cup
- thick cable (each cable after the y-split is as thick as the cable on my SR60 pre-split)
- 4 individual wires connected to the driver or whatever inside each cup

Hey MaZa! I'm still sceptical until i hear it myself, people used to write whatever they believe.
