the only time I don't use my amp and high end headphones is when I'm at the gym, I don't want anything covered in sweat. So I use these air canada airplane headphones, which are the worst things ever, worst then ipod headphones. Sounded like a walkie-talkie, so when I put my good headphones on, it's quite the great feeling

You must be really enjoying the contrast switching back and forth....

You refuse to listen to cheap headphones (or you get headaches from doing so).
Also, you participate specifically for researches that involve listening at your university because they use Grados

When you've moved up the line so much, anything less sounds awful.

When you wear cargo pants just to fit your over sized and not really portable Amp/DAC with very non-portable headphones on your head looking as if you are awaiting launch codes from command .. while in line at Wendy's.

... when your stomach churns every time you see someone wearing the stock earphones that came with mp3 player.

wait... how can anyone get headaches from any headphone if they are fine with Grados?

When you become offended by all of the pretentious people in your school who sport Beats... And they think they're the best headphone ever just because they spent $300

Grados work with a good amp that kills some of the fatiguing brightness. However, over time they definitely do not work.
Some non audiophilic headphones just kill me in minutes.

When, after you have administered spankings to your children, you make them stand sobbing in certain spots around your easy chair to get the best imaging...
 
...ok, I don't really do this but after the way my 3 young honey-badgers have tried my patience this evening, I can dream can't I?

But can they handle the low, mid, high ranges separately?  How's the crossover?

Yes, they work as a three-way system.  I like the mid-wails straight up in the center, low end blubbering close but slightly to the left.  The high pitched squeals seem to work best at 20ft and panned slightly to the right.  
 
My crossover is pretty good, I can spank left or right handed...

This made my day. Now that's what a I call a great parent.
