HE60 is also yet unscathed, though it most assuredly should be scorched in conjunction with the HEV70.

Maybe we need an MS2i owners club too!

....uh; maybe it should be open to all MS2s. We may not all wish be considered "Fatboys"!!

I second that wholeheartedly. Sure there are a few tracks where they sound great but certainly not worth keeping to spend time discovering the 0.1% of my collection that they probably sound good with.

Hmm...

No Westones. I like mine. Guess others like theirs too.

Iwas thinking the same thing, but I didn't want to jinx them by mentioning it.

ordering MS1's as my intro to the Grado flavor. Hopefully i won't have to put these up here. It would really be a shame. LOL
Hope I love them.
Also ATH-CM7 bought off e-bay so they might be fake. who knows. Great sound.... week bass
