I am trying to decide my next "toy". It would be a pair of RS-1s (with flats) or the new Denon D5000, both in the "bass" side of the balance, I think
.
But let's talk about grados... I use my HF-1 with flats and I love it. I love the bass, and although I realize is a little too bloated, I like its volume. I never liked them with bowls, too bright and thin sounding for my actual tastes. With flats are a different beast. Smooth in the highs, roaring guitars and a strong foundation. So I am thinking about a pair of RS-1s and I will use them with flats too. What can I expect from them, taking the HF1+flats as reference?
I will use them as my main headphones for rock (from classic 70' rock to death metal) with a Singlepower MPX3 Slam.
