I myself (the apparent antagonizer here) started this thread a few months ago, I think, about the HF1 and how they sound:
HTML Code:
I LOVE my HF1's. I LOVE John Grado. I publicly praise and recommend him and their products all the time. I do think the SR60's are godawful, but that's ok for their price etc.
Look, my friends. I am not trying to 'whine.' I just want you all to look at the difference between then and now. We have made the market this way... that an average 'affordable' price of a headphone is now '$439. This is something that deserves attention.
I just really wish they could have kept it under the $300 mark. So many of use are suffering economically right now and everyone knows it.
These 'phones are being offered to us (I thought) because we have a particular love for headphones and that deserves some kind of recognition and appreciation. It follows that any kind of custom made Grado offering will be irresistable to us, because we REALLY LOVE AND APPRECIATE HEADPHONES.
If it really is a 'gift' to headfier's, naturally it follows that we should be able to afford the offering.
PLEASE. JOHN. TODD. LOWER THE PRICE. IT IS NOT TOO LATE.
