Hey,
I'm new, very new. My frist visit to Head-Fi was right when the iGrados were announced. I purchased a pair and never worried about it. I thought they sounded great and, still do. I think they have great bass and now, i'm very used to the sound.
So, about 3 days ago I was at home listening to them and wondered if I should step it up and get a nice set for home listening. Yesterday I bought the SR-80s. I'm running them through a 4th gen iPod. I wasn't impressed. I'm running them on Latin (EQ) to get some Bass out of them. This also boosts the treble. (This works on for the iGrados) The treble is too much (for me on the 80s) on the latin setting. Comparing them to the iGrado, they seem to have less bass on the same EQ setting. The SQ is better on the SR-80s, I was just hoping for more bass in that package.
What do you think is going on here. Everybody raves about the bass on the 80s...Burn-in? Underpowered? iGrados do have more bass? I'm crazy?
Oh and, I also ordered some PX100s, they will be here tomorrow.
I am overall pleased with the iGrados and was just hoping to step up a level to something similar, bass heavy.
Well, let me know what you think...
Thanks
