Headphones

[wallace]

If you like the plastic Grado's you really should try some wooden ones one day,same detail,but quite a bit smoother

I love mine,but i got them so cheaply as they were only working on one side,easy fixed.I wouldn't dream of paying £700 for them.I was quite happy with my SR325's.
Your 80's with some L cushions will sound as good as you could want with your new improved amp.

HiFiMAN HE-400 Headphones - Canare Cable - Spare Velour Pads - Case

I know its over at AOS but thought some members here may be intrested....best be quick.

Fine Planer Magnetic Cans and a bloody steal for anyone after a pair of quality headphones £190 inc Delivery........wtf

They are still there, cheap as chips, and being magnetic planer type will piss on most Grados.......

Well should i buy them,or pay the council tax and car tax,o and get some food,

I looked at the cost of new HE 400's and they are available (US) for $299.00 which is as close to £199.00 as needs be. Does the Canare cable make such a difference to warrant the price over on AoS?

Well, I had a decent listen to the tweaked MS1 cans last night... They simply sound nice!

The tone is a bit more on the warmer side over the standard SR80... The bass is just a tad softer, but doesn't mask any of the musical detail.

Still, these retain the front-row presentation typically from all Grado cans. If you hear a Grado that sounds laid back, then something is wrong

These MS1's are clearly a more grown up version of the SR80.

Fair way of putting it - I have a pair of unmodified MS1's ("nice" may be seen as damming by some though)

So far wallace in 2014/2015 council tax year , 3.5 million households out of apprroximately 30 million have had court proceedings issued against them for none payment . Whilst i suspect you were joking , you would not be lonely .

as for headphones , my senheiser 595's are redundant since i got the NVA amps . And I aint bothered because i now prefer to listen at low volume than with headphones , which is a reversal from the situation when i used the yamaha .

[wallace]

My senn 595's were redundant about ten mins after i bought some Grado's. O,and i paid the council tax,so won't be needing your services,yet..

[Daniel Quinn]

Bugger , you wont be wanting to buy them then

edit - i have just googled grado rs1 , they cost £800 !!!!
