Don't agree that the PS-1's have this problem. The PS-1 sound great out of everything and some complain that they must be too colored to make everything sound great. I don't really care because my goal is to just enjoy my music. If I start upgrading and it makes it sound worse because it shows all the flaws, that's not the headphone for me. The GS1000 was one of those headphones.
I'm also not saying the GS1000 isn't better or worse than the RS-1. I'm just saying if you loved the RS-1, the GS1000 is not an upgrade. If you thought the RS-1 had flaws you couldn't live with, the GS1000 might be the answer. If you liked the RS-1 and wanted something very similar but more refined and a little less harsh, the PS-1 might be the answer. I haven't heard the HP-2 yet, so I don't know where that fits in. If you like the RS-1 and dont' want to spend much, get an SR-60 and you'll still have a very fun, enjoyable headphone that works great out of an ipod.
