I've been trialing out some Grados, and I have a few questions on some of the recabled Grado's you carry.
Which one of your cables do you recommend with the RS-1. With this particular cable, what type of differences can I expect in the sound. I know this a preference based, but I would love to get your opinion as I'm sure you have listened to them with all of your cables.
I see that you recommend the Cardas cable for the 225. I have the Cardas cable for my HD-650's, and I know what it brings to those. Why do you recommend it for the 225's?
Finally, 1 last, tough question. I know you heard the HD 800's, albeit very briefly at CES. I have a pair on order, and being that I am big Sennheiser fan and based on the great reviews, I have no doubt I will love it. My goal is to get down to 2 sets of cans. I figure the HD 800 will be #1. I am looking for something to compliment it, and I figured Grado's are so unique in their sound, that they may work the best. I know this will be tough, but based on your brief listen, do you think a recabled pair of RS-1's or SR-225's would provide a nice change of pace phones to compliment the HD 800's?
