Hey man thanks for the info and Iāll definitely check them out.
Was not expecting those kind of prices but they do look very nice. Iāll probably wait to see how they feel with the L cushion and if they really bother me but I like the sound of the headphone then Iāll probably bite the bullet and get a set of the Beautiful Audio pads.
Woohoo another sr325e owner. @Ohmboy can we get new thread? It may make more sense to also include the 125 and 225 since these all donāt get much attention
Also I found the g cushions to reduce the lows some. which you donāt want. I didnāt find the difference to be that large though
Tiz done mate
@Marzipan so I just picked up these last night, same S style that comes with them, was a recommend I saw up in this thread, I posted in the other thread to see which models to go up to because now Iām like holy crap if these sound this good whatās above?
EARZONK - Replacement Headphone S Ear Cushions - Compatible with Grado 60i, 60e, 80i, 80e, 125i, 125e & More - Pair in Red https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00BW5U3HM/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_HcCgFb7SY8K1R
You should maybe consider the Hemp LTD Edition. They are a bit more bassy and have smoother treble than other Grados. They are $420 and worth every penny.
These look interesting. The smoothed out treble and added bass is very appealing.
Iāve been tempted since I saw the release, may just have toā¦
The best part is that the timber is the most natural Iāve heard. These make well recorded acoustic music sound damn near like a live performance. My favorite album so far is KODO Heart Beat. I would recommend anyone with Grados give it a listen.
You had me at Natural Timbreā¦
My Lawton modded Fostex TH610ās are the most natural timbre Iāve ever heard. I actually sold my very good pair of LCD-X because I wasnāt using them any longer.
Iām going to have to seriously consider these. Itās also nice that Grado offers a balanced cable version (albeit at an excessive up-charge).
Thanks for the info!
Cheers!
If you are willing to read a VERY long post, go check the official thread I linked. I wrote up a full review and did a lot of comparing with my X00 PH since they are both around the same prices.
Can confirm the 60ās highs are more there but the 80ās have more oomph, glad to have both but now scared I need to collect the whole set
This makes a lot sense, thank you for finding
Wait whoa, the red is the 80? Hmmm
That seems like it might be mislabeled. Everything Iāve heard says the 60 are less bass and more highs while the 80 are more bass and less highs (compared to each other). That graph is the polar opposite. I donāt know, I canāt find a graph that compares them or really even individual graphs from the same source for that matter, so I might be wrong.
Exactly what Iām hearing as well
Not me, Iāve heard and seen the 60s having more bass and less treble. It doesnāt matter either way as they both are great. Fun and easy to mod as well.
Also and fyiā¦that graph is from headroom. Tyll Hertsens used to work for headroom and setup their measurement rig right before he left for innerfidelity.
This must be the unit variance you talk about, I am absolutely hearing less bass and more highs from the 60, what are your thoughts on the 125 and 225? In your experience
