Magiccabage, the GS-X mk2 and PS1000 is my regular setup, along with an Oppo 105 as the source. The sound is incredibly natural and lifelike, some of the best that I've heard personally. Is it bright? I don't really think so, but I also realize that I'm not as overly sensitive to high-frequency tones as some people. I'll say this...the GS-X mk2 is not a tube amp that rolls off the top end, but neither do I think it's bright.
This may be the wrong place to post this and for that I apologize, but is $1200 a good price for a gently used, mint pair of PS1000's? I had the gs1000i's for a month and had to sell them and I am currently rocking the AKG k702's and am yearning for that grado sound.

All this talk makes me wish I had kept my PS1000's for 2 weeks instead of one, just to give them a bit more of a chance and understand them better. I would never have kept it over my HD800/HE6/LCD3 (and HE500 for that matter) at the time though; that's a guarantee, and what lead me to sell them so fast.
oooh what amp do you use for HE-6?
its the last flagship i have yet to try out.
right now i think im gonna return the PS1000 and re-buy RS1i if i want that grado sound, i might not though, since the beyer t1 and LCD-3 seem to do great for rock/metal already as well as older recordings.

So would you advise to get the ps500 instead of the ps1000 and invest the remaining money in a good amp? Or would you stay with a ps1000 or gs1000i purchase? I loved my gs1000i headphones when I owned them, and I have regretted selling them. I've heard the ps1000 are much better then the gs1000i's all around though, other than comfort? Any help would be amazing. I'm pretty set on Grado's at the moment...Thanks!
