Just curious how well do Grados hold up under normal home use,
I’ve only had my new SR225’s for about six weeks and they already look well used, the paint on the buttons has literally rubbed off after about a week , the cables have taken on a twisted life of their own and the pads have already lost some of their shape.
I normally take extra care and pride in keeping things for years, even my 20 year old AKG K240DF’s look fine, 3 year old K501’s and HD580’s look almost as good as new and they all gotten their share of use and abuse.
The sr225's sound great and it would be nice to keep them around for the next 10 -15 years at least.
