Given the adulation around here, I'm seriously thinking about the Grado SR60, but there is also a number of people who don't like the comfort and the sound. I would like to find a place to audition them - is this something a high-end audio place would carry? Grado's web site doesn't have a dealer locator...

Also, any competition in an open air phone for the same price?

you just have to look around. I know of two semi-local Grado dealers around me

Just look around.
There are several shops in my area that cary most of Grado's line, and there might be some in your are as well. Wherever that may be...

If you put your location below screen name it would be easier for us to know where you are located and make recommendations.

I recommend Kruunuradio in Helsinki, Finland. They have just about every Grado in production, minus the Alessandros, hanging on the wall.

Well, that would be the intelligent thing to do, and hence uncharacteristic of me.

I live in the Los Angeles area, Encino to be exact. Although a trip to Finland or England would be nice... I guess I was asking for a type of place, but there are probably people here who could point me to the exact place. D'oh!

I highly recommend Hawthorn Stereo, info here http://www.hawthornestereo.com/

Ahh..I did not see your reply on where you live...but Hawthorn Stereo is a wonderus place to visit for audio-philes!

DXC Store is definitely a close enough drive for you. And if Grados aren't quite what you're looking for, there are other cans you can try out as well.
