I am currently using the AKG701's with the Heed Canamp with really fine results listening to Jazz, Female and Male vocalists, Acoustic guitar and Concert and New Age music with the 701's. I am looking for more authority in the bass listening at low volume levels to Rock and some Jazz and think the Grados might do the trick as a change from my 701's.
I need some help with a "Grado Taste Test." Some you Grado owners out there probably either had the luxury of being able to try before you buy at a meet or store, or had a friends Grado to demo before you laid down the big bucks on your current Grado model of choice.
So my question is which of the Grado line SR60, SR80, SR125, SR 225, or SR325i would provide the best preview of the signature Grado sound without having to shell out too much cash? For instance it would be great if I could get a pretty good idea of the Grado presentation under $100, for either the SR60 or the SR80. I am kind of reluctant to spend more than that but am open to your opinions.
I realize that the soundstage/presentation will change as I go up the line and finally include the RS2 and RS1 and maybe even the RS1000. But which of these lesser cans will help me most to decide which high-end Grado can to buy later on? Please, only experienced Grado owners reply on this one, as I want to have opinions based on personal observation...
Thanks in advance...
