From what I have heard about the ps1000(and gs1000) is that the big bagel pads detract from that presentation in an effort to present the illusion of a deeper sound stage. I will reserve my opinions until I can get a proper listen, but going in that doesn't sound like Grado are playing to their strengths with those products.

I haven't had a chance to listen to PS1000 either. Of all the Grados I heard, GS1000 is the one that sounds very different from all the others. With such a big gap in sound signature between GS1000 and the rest, it would be interesting to see where PS1000 fits in. Todd said HF-2 is like a baby PS1000? If PS1000 sound anything like HF-2 it will be completely different from GS1000.

Heard and owned:

I would place the PS1000 below HP2 and probably above the RS1 based on my brief session with it.

1. HF2 - just getting to know these, but they seem to grab the good sides of both the SR325i (natural) and RS1i (musical)
2. SR325i/RS1i - almost equal, 325i has a plus in naturality, RS1i for coloration so it really depends on mood, slight edge to RS1i for being more comfortable.

3. SR125 - sold, loved these but can't compare them to the others I have now.
4. GS1000 - didn't do it for me. sounded weird.
