So I was fortunate to get a pair of the HF-1s on the last Todd sale. I was so stoked.
Anyway, I have been burning them in for about a week and a half now and this past weekend, I changed out the cds I was using for some ones with more bass. The other night I spent about 30 minutes with them to hear their progress and noticed something disturbing. On the really bass heavy songs there seem to be a crackle in the right ear. I did not really notice it at lower
volumes, but did notice it at lets say an upper medium volume.
Then two nights ago I checked in with them again and there was no sound out of the right driver at all. That morning we did have a power outage. Could this have caused the problem? This sucks. I have an email into Gradolabs. I hope this is covered under the warranty.
On a side note, the first response email back from Gradolabs said,

I took this as them being a little snobish. Is it just me or am I reading to much into this. Has anyone else had this kind of response from them?

Sounds like you ruined the drivers with the "bass heavy music" that you used. Grado Labs |
