grados still available

ipod sold. Grados still available

Hi all. Selling off my Grados SR80. Burned in, sponges and headband all still in good condition. Box and warranty still intact and available. Selling off cos' rarely use headphones now at home, and want to get a pair of cans that I can use on the go with my iPod. Price: S$150 Incidentally, I also have my 3rd generation iPod 10gb for sale. Price: S$339. If you buy them both together, we can negotiate a slight discount email me at {{{mail@theyeofamily.com}}} to transact. I rarely visit this forum Thanks. Timothy.. Mod edit: Title amended to reflect status of sale.

went down to Sim Lim 3rd level Hung Bro shop today. They didn't have the 414's sponge. actually, they didn't have ANY sponge for any headphone except for one really flimsy looking S$2.50 sponge. obviously it didn't look like it'd fit my grados. SO I guess next stop is sennheiser asia liao.. but the 414 is a really old pair of headphones (so says the Hung Bro shop guy). Donno can find a not? Any other shops where I'd be able to find replacement headphone sponge? maybe some other model can fit also? not just the 414? Anyone?

where can I find sennheiser asia? can I buy direct if I go down to their store / office?

matbon0013: I'm no audiophile, so I won't know where to begin to describe what I hear Although, the bass is not as strong as I've heard it at Music By Design. prob cos' they played it out of an amp there, so sound stronger bass. But everything else it definately sounds better than my Sony earphones. I'm hearing details I haven't heard before in some songs e.g. scratching of guitar strings, singer inhaling etc. heh.. 1 complaint though are the insides of the headphones; rough, my right year very tender after wearing for long periods. Replacing the sponge should do the trick though. Tell me more about how to describe the mids lows to you, with what music best to describe, and I'll do my best

heh.. how much would it cost, and physically how much space would it take up?

hahahaha.. that's damn funny. I wonder how it keeps to the grooves? the record's grooves aren't exactly deep. so how, anyone got cheap turntable to sell? or know where got sell?

wah lau. where to find the pink turntable? Junction 8 where got such shop? I live in the north and go J8 quite often, how come never see such a shop? So anyone else know where to find the "cutesy" cheap turntable?

ok. i'll get those foam pads the next time I'm in Sim Lim, get from the 3rd floor audio shop. So how much do they cost?

I've used the GR80s for quite a stretch right now. The sponge pads are fine. But what I find uncomfortable are the insides. There is this wire mesh of sorts covering the innards that is quite rough. after wearing for long periods, the tips of my ears are really sore from abrasion! Anyone got any solution, maybe some thin foam pad or something?

yeah. noted. my powerbook is NEVER asleep.. heh.. only when it is in transport I never knew I had 4 days worth of continously playing music in my iTunes. sheesh.. that's a lot of music!

Hi all. Newbie question, so your uptmost patience please. My girlfriend told me she had some old records from her childhood that she wanted to play. So I thought of getting her a turntable as a gift. Neither of us are audiophiles. All I'm looking for is a normal set. Preference: something small that doesn't take up much space, and something cheap. where can I find such a turntable? and what is the price range? 2nd hand ones are fine too. advice please. Thanks. Timothy..

Yeah.. tube amplifiers.. heh.. Anyways, I'm using my iTunes on my powerbook as a source for burning in my headphones. is that a problem? or should I be using a stereo system?

kenshinz: I got them for S$170, same as the price stated in the sticky here. N@Z: I'm no audiophile. right now as I'm burning them in at "just below comfort" volume, I can't quite hear the "GRADO difference". maybe after tomorrow when I raise the volume, I can hear the difference As I was walking around Adelphi, I saw all those elaborate setups with all sorts of transistors, vaccums etc. on top of black boxes. I wonder what in the world they are. Maybe someday when I get to know a audiophile personally I can ask him
