Well I've only heard one, and that's my Grado HF2s.

Of those I have heard that would be the GS1000.
Never heard the GS1000i, PS1, PS1000 or HP1000 though...

The poll result would only make sense if all voters have heard every Grado phones on the list (not me).
Good to hear what people think about the ones they have heard though.
For me it is HP1000 for their detailed and smooth sound. Followed closely by RS1 and black SR325.

There is not an option for RS1, nevertheless my most favor are RS1 and HP1000. The RS1 is extremely outstanding for Jazz music and maybe classical as well for the Grado's very own style. HP1&2 is the most accurate I have heard. The only problem is comfort.

Well, considering that all the original HF2 owners are Head-Fi members it does not surprise me...
I bet there are much fewer HP1000, PS1000, RS1i owners around here, so the majority win.

That, and the HF2 is quite nice sounding as well.

I can't really vote on this because I have only owned the HF-1s and HF-2s (and not heard the others). If you voted for the HF-2 and have heard all or almost all of these, I'd like to hear why.

I do have to say that I find the sound signature of the HF-2s to be extremely satisfying for rock and electronic music. I wouldn't change anything about them.
