Greetings to all headfiers!

I really like the sound of my SR60, since using it as a portable isnt a good idea, Im searching for a canalphones/earphones that would at least sound like grado's with even more bass? possible?

Any thoughts will be appreciated! Thank you!

I use AKG k24p, they are as bright as grado sr60

, decent base (i'm not basehead), is portable, semi open, foldable.

I think my SR-80s make a hell of a portable can, or course I'm a dork so what the heck. When I'm with the wife she makes me a bring the KCS-75s instead. Says they look much better. Sound isn't quite as good. I'm really getting addicted to the Grado sound.

you could always mod your grados so they are "street style"

Not an earphone, but the KSC-75 or 35 clipons are kinda grado-ish.

You could always hop on eBay or the sale forums here and look for a pair of SR40s.

I think the KSC-75's are just what you're looking for. Check them out on amazon, they're only about $15. Don't let the low price fool you - they sound awesome.


P.S. Adam! Neuros buddy!

the SR40 is a nice option if you can find one. But I love the KSC-35, i call them my "Baby Grados." if you don't like earclips, try the portapro or sportapro.

Koss all the way...

Umm... I think you mean bass, not base. Anyway, i would definately go with koss for what you are looking for. I have the KSC-35s, they are uncomfortable when you first get them, but then the clip loosens up and they are great sounding for the price.

The problem with Grado is they leak a lot so Im pretty much declined using them as portable. Modding them only changes the way it look like and doesnt add portability either.


Looks like Koss wins! and with a very cheap price it wont hurt a lot

Will koss go as loud as grados?

What about earphones/Canalphones? I really want earphones or canalphones as I dont want to disturb peoples near me.

Kosses will go quite loud. But I'm of those guys who promotes low volume listening, due to the dreaded "T". =)

I can tell you what canalphones don't sound grado-ey: the ety er-6 & 4p.

Add to that the e2c and e3c... Anti-grado signature IMHO

 

[Jahn]

oh yeah the er4p is the anti-grado lol.

The Koss phones will leak as well, but not as bad as the Grados. With that said, I'll second the Portapro suggestion. They stay on your ears and sound great.
