bit expensive?

[The Hoff]

^They're retro, and retro is cool

 

[Munson]

For sure, that's my view, but not everyone will be keen on the looks of the Grado range.

 

[Lagerlout]

I've just ordered some Grado SR80's.

Cheers boys.

Oh and retro suits me just fine!!

 

[Graham Gooch]

Not in ear, but I use Bose QC2s

I love them

Mate, you will love the SR80, such an open sound. Very wide sound stage. I use mine with my NAD CD player, my laptop/s, my iPod and my games PC. Stunning cans.

Most suited to music though. Very very musical sound to them.

 

[Lagerlout]

Good to hear. Thay've been bought with music in mind.

I live in a newish house where the walls appear to be made of paper meaning my system never goes higher than 2/10ths most of the time.... so a decent set of cans was the only soltution for now!

 

[Munson]

They are very old school though. Pure music. Not too much bass.

 

[The Hoff]

Remember kids, don't damage your hearing!

 

[Munson]

Just listening to Alison Moyet - Is this Love

Lowly mp3 on the PC and it sounds sensational through the SR80 mofos :approve: x100

EDIT: crank up the volmue and these phones are goose bump inducing bad boys. Truly stunning!

 

[Munson]

OMG my 120GB music collection includes The Bee Gees

Night Fever!

 

[Munson]

Nothing is cooler than the Bee Gees. Fact.

LOL

I can't wait to belt Scarlet's independant love song out on these bad boys.

 

[Munson]

One for my bitches...

[beatjunkie]

mate these are 79.99 on amazon!!!!im debating whether to get them!!

 

[Munson]

My crappy images are free. But that's a good price for the Grado. They have an amazing abilty to make all music send a shiver down your spine.

 

[Munson]

New Order - Regret

 

[James.]

My wee grados took a few good hours of listening to burn them in. After about 20hours litening time they come into their own!

 

[The Hoff]

Roy are you intending to give us a blow by blow account of everything on your playlist? If so perhaps compile it all into one post...I'm beginning to see how you've managed 5,2XX posts.

Let us know what you think anyway Laingo, good piece of kit.

 

[Munson]

It's not a bad idea. Sorry if you don't approve of my posting sytles.

 

[The Hoff]

No in general your posts are fine, and frequently more interesting to read than the majority of the forums users. However with that said, your song choices don't make for such compelling reading my friend

 

[Munson]

Ok glad to see you approve on the whole. I'll try to make adjustments to my musical besed posts. I hope I can please you more this way

 

[spirez]

I've also got the E3c's, think they're mint. As said they are excellent in the gym as they block out idiots grunting, shouting, chucking weights about etc and are one of the only headphones that stay in my ear.

Excellent clarity and sound separation but could possibly produce a little more bass imo.

Hoffmeister, where can you buy the different nozzle from online as the original grey ones do tend to slip out of my big lobes if i'm running. Want to try the foam ones or the other rubber ones.

 

[The Hoff]

Theres loads of vendors mate - http://www.google.co.uk/products?q=shure+foam+tips&hl=en&safe=off&um=1&scoring=p

I think given you've stated you're experiencing a lack of bass, and that they sometimes come out that you should try the Shure Triple Flange tips, you'll have to remove them fkers with pliers!

[spirez]

THey were the suckers i was thinking of actually! I imagine i'd have to replace the foam ones too often.

 

[The Hoff]

Aye the foamies can get...ehm...a bit tainted in colour. Apparently you can wash them in warm water and it freshens them up somewhat.
