@bbophead saw your price breakdown on on the main grado thread. Factor in the rip off UK price of the 325 (best part of $600), I think I would go down the RS1/ PS500 or higher rather than the full custom mod. Would love to get at least some alu gimbals and blocks on my 325 though. Best get a job first!. Beautiful work though and sure they feel and sound amazing.

Oh, I almost completely agree.  But, it turns out I'm a 325 kind of guy.  I had the 500 for ten months with my modded 325 and sold the 500.  Too much mid-bass.  I have never heard the RS1 but I like a large soundstage so I'd have to slap G-Cushions on it.

Thanks for the compliment.  They are and they do.

I'm having trouble deciding between the HD600 or SR325is.
 
I mostly listen to Rock and Rap and I hear Grados are great at these genres....would they be better then the HD600?
 
 
I'm going to be using these headphones with the magni/modi combo

Well I can tell you that I listen to alternative rock, rock, jazz and so on, but I don't listen to rap, anyway I have the 325is and the Magni/Modi and I am very satisfied with the sound of this setup. I've never heard the HD600 so I can't comment on them, but in my opinion you can't go wrong with this setup as far as I'm concerned, it sounds awesome. I also use the 325's with the LD1+/Modi and same goes for that setup although the amps sound different from each other, I like them both very much, especially for the price!

You may get a slightly different answer from the guys on the Senn threads though!

Just wanted to post some research results after listening to these headphones a few weeks with my home setup, the Schiit Asgard 2 & Bifrost Uber.  I absolutely love these phones, I find myself picking them up more than my HD650's.  After realizing this I wanted to bring this sound with me to work and found the Schiit Magni and Modi with some closed back headphones (because of noise isolation) the Sennheiser Amperiors made a very close comparison to the 325is.  Just in case someone was looking for something similar but with better isolation.

I hate to do this but I am selling my beautiful gold 325i. I'm trying to help fund a Stax rig so check it out if you're in the market.
 
I do plan on keeping my sr60 for those times when I need my Grado fix.

''Grado fix'' that's a good way of putting it, wich Stax do you plan on getting, if you don't mind me asking?
