Hi Heady, Thanks for the warning about wallet thing, I already know, when I first step into HIFI world, it was a home setup and the urge to upgrade is always there, he he he, dun know where will this end! Yesterday I downloaded the Foobar 2000 software, I still dun know what is FLAC but i just use this player to play the wav files that i have and the result is impressive. wow!! I dun know what will happen if i add an amp to this setup but I am sure i will be impressed. Ha ha! Regards Eric

Dear all, I just a pair of SR80 from Stereo and I agree with some bros here that it tend to sound a bright (I hope it will better after burn in) and it is quite uncomfortable to wear for long period. I did stretch the head band outward a bit and i think it is better now or I am getting use to it, I dont know ha ha! However I have a question to ask, with the Grado I need to switch the volume on my PSP and laptop to max to get decent volume, in this case is an amp needed to drive the Grado? If yes what will be the suitable amp for Grado? It sounded just nice with the Marantz CD6002, I wonder whats wrong here. BR, Eric

Hi Bros, I just bought a Grado SR80, they sound awesome from my Marantz CD6002 but when I switch to Sony PSP or my Sony VIAO laptop then it seems that these sources not enough power to drive the Grado SR80, I have to switch the volume to maximum to get a decent volume and also the bass seems lacking. Will adding a headphone amp improve the situation? If yes what amp is suitable for Grado SR 80? Thanks in adv. Sincerely Eric
