i have never heard grados until yesterday. i started an internship at the university of california-irvine and i decided to drop by the university bookstore. lo and behold, they actually have a good headphone collection. HD280s, HD202s, PX200s, some koss phones, and the SR80. i wanted to demo the 80s, but they only had 60s with comfies for testing. my impression of the 60s was not actually that great. at half volume on an ipod photo, they seemed underwhelming and weak, whereas my HD497s are smooth and deep even at 1/3 volume or less.could these be the great sr60s that headfiers rant about? however, the SR80s were $79, and from what i understand, that is a pretty good deal. even though the 60s disappointed me, the price was quite intriguing. i'm toying with the idea of just splurging for them. would i be disappointed?
