I would consider customs, but then I wouldn't really have much use for a balanced setup at work and I like gear.

Kind of out there, never knew Grados liked being closed, putting a hand over most of the Grados I have sounds bad.

Never really liked L3000, will look into DX1000.

I couldn't use iems at work. ESW10s were excellent for me, but that's because they isolate, but not that well, and were small enough to pop into a desk drawer easily or toss in a bag to take home at night. |
