As the title states, I’m looking for entry level Grado/Sennheisers. I’ve had a long-term interest in both these manufactures, but currently don’t have the money to truly invest in either. Currently, I’m more set on saving up to upgrade my Micro cMoy to a maxed out Portaphile V2², but since I don’t have any non-portable headphones for my home rig (super.fi 5 Pros as my only semi high-end earphones at the moment), I’d like to get something to just tie me over until I can afford the amp upgrade and start saving for a real headphone/IEM upgrade. No need to start a Grado vs. Sennheiser battle fanboys; I plan on eventually owning both the Grado RS-1 and Sennheiser HD650’s w/ cable upgrade some day. I would just like something affordable to fill the gap for the time being.
That said, how are the Grado SR60’s? Senn HD497/PX200’s? I don’t intend than spending any more than the price of those (about $69), but if there are equivalent alternatives for the same price, those suggestions would be much appreciated. My goal is to find the best headphone for that price that will give me the best introductory representation of how a Grado or Sennheiser headphone really sounds. Thank you for your time and help.
