i've pretty much felt the same way, but then i had the rs1i with a j$ headband, and thought, "well this is pretty good!" lol
  i bet its really nice on the ps1000

haha! this is what I'm thinking too. Now I might take my brown J$ headband off the Sr225 and put it on my Gs1ki ... or maybe the gs1ke

 
That sound like a great plan!
 
I am all for the comfy level, being way up there, and those headbands look very comfy.

Can anyone compare the PS1000 to the LCD-X?  Not just the bass!

I have another problem with my PS1000e-They touch my ears (Not only the pads) and they make them hurt after long listening. Is there a good solution to this without changing the sound?

  Many people know that Grado HP's (same models) vary in sound signature…unfortunately the higher end models. I still wouldn't sweat it.

Haven't read to the last post yet, but, I wouldn't be surprised if they might sound just slightly different.  LCD-X owners can obtain a graph of their HPs by emailing their serial number to Audeze.  So why not other HPs?

It's been so long since I've had the lcd x other than the ps1000 seeming fast I'm not sure i could give too much useful information
maybe the mids a little forward

I am looking for someone who have heard a couple of PS1000e and that could tell me if they differ in sound. I just love SO MUCH my PS1000e. I mean i am exploding while listening to them. They are SO AMAZING, That is why i am so afraid to send them for a repair... ;(

I own the PS1K and decided to try the LCD-X side by side to hear what all the hype was about Audeze for myself, and to also hear the their sound-signature. In short there was no comparison for me…the PS1K's were clearly my choice. I felt the X had no detail/clarity and sounded very muffled/veiled and all I heard was darkness/bass. I don't mean too insult anyone who owns the X, but in my case I wouldn't buy them if they cost $100.00…too my ears/taste they are one the most expensive terrible sounding HP's I've ever heard, and I was in shock after reading how many people praise them. I'll take any Grado model I own over them any day. I'm sorry to say this, but I fell they are a complete rip off.

Yes.  Compared to my PS1KE, my LCD-Xs are very relaxing whereas the PSs are more forward and should I say, fun.  My 1st surprise was when I listened to the Roxy Music Avilon track 'More Than This'.  The PS seems to bring out the upper frequencies of the bass guitar that give it a more snappy presence than with the LCDs.  The highs in the PSs are definitely, as are other grados I've owned, strong and extended and can be, for me, almost overwhelming depending on whether the highs are pushed on a given album.
In short, they're two totally different signatures and I wouldn't care to live without either. Really depends on the music.
The only thing that bugs me about the PSs a bit, is the bowlpads itch like crazy sometimes.  HTRH

A graph is a graph which is all well and fine, but I would rather listen with my ears 100% rather than rely on a graph for a HP's sound.

Send the HP's too Grado already and have them fixed. By the time you ask the same questions over and over again, you could have had them fixed and burning them in already!

True, but I was just pointing out that one company acknoledges that drivers can vary from HP to HP.  As some might know, graphs are useless to me and I can only trust my ears imphaticly.

Amazing agreement! I've tried Audeze at the last three headphone meets, determined that I should like them and augment my collection with one, likely the LCD2. After all, I've loved a wide variety, from Grados through Sennheisers, Sonys, and Beats. I particularly was interested in the Audeze because of their strong bass, a welcome complement to the light bass of my Grados.

But I could not find anything to excite me about them. Three times! Not just the LCD 2, but the higher end ones. Not bad, just "bleah." I had the same reaction to the NAD hp50 and the V-MODA M-100.

Whatever happens, Musicmate, the fact is that you don't like the sound right now; it's bothering you.  Joseph69's right; get them off so you can enjoy them when they come back.  They'll certainly sound better than they do now.
Good luck, sir.

I read your post and understood why you posted it, but I still feel you need to listen too a HP and never mind the graph…even when the graphs differ for the same model HP's. 

 

Amazing agreement! 

I truly believe that people feel Audeze "must be a great" HP due to it being way over priced.

Couldn't agree more.
