I already admit to loving these little 125s that i received last week... combined with my D777 Discman, this is a combination, that to my ears kills the Senn HD580 / X-Can V2 combo (Oops... loads of flames coming
)
Anyway... point being, I'm interested in UpGrado'ing (already!!)... but the Hi-Fi mag I read (Hi-Fi Choice) seems to dislike the SR-225s, and is not THAT favourable on the SR-325s...

Within the realms of realism, what extra would i get by taking a step or two further up the Grado ladder?
If these SR-125s are pretty kick-arse good, and people tell me that, then i'll more than happily stay at this level... Its just that I want to acheive the holy grail of headphone listening... a perfect sounding set of cans!!
Musical tastes of mine... pretty much anything, except classical... but, as my profile says... Female vocals are a priority of mine
Thanks in advance for the replies

SR-125 What these 'phones lack in style they make up for ten-fold in musical ability |

SR-225 Warm, darkly-coloured tonally and ultimately lacking in clarity, but true to the spirit of the music |

SR-325 Elegant sound across the frequency spectrum; let down by old fashioned ear-piece design |
