1 more day, thats all i have to wait.
Just purchased some new RS-1's from a fellow head-fi'er, suppose to be here monday morning. Your probably asking why would i consider these if i have the HP-2's?? Il tell you why: CONTRAST! My HP-2's will always remain the cream of the crop, and especially after Joe Grado tailored them to his own personal pair, but i am in fear of adapting to their signature.... They sound so good with the SLAM i cant pry them from my head! I had an idea to buy something with the complete oposite sound characteristics (and one that actually still sounds decent, coughnosennheisercough) and put it on heavy rotation with the HP-2 . This would make it harder for me to adapt to my gear, spoiling with the RS-1's overexagerated romanticism, then chilling it out with the natural lifelike sudo-realistic HP-2.
Anyone else own both the RS-1 and HP-2 and want to chime in on their affiar????
