papaya86 0 Report post Posted October 8, 2004 how is the clarity, bass etc compared to px200, gettin one at 90-100 second hand, isit worth it? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
N@Z 0 Report post Posted October 8, 2004 Answering purely based on your exact question alone, hands down the SR80 has better clarity/detail. Bass on the Grado is punchier & tight. IMO the PX200 sound muddier although it is fairly good for it's price & assuming you don't have placement issues with the enclosure. Is it worth it at $90~100? Depends on age, condition & does it come with the original box. If it fullfills the said criterias I think the price is a great buy. With the Grado in mind, let me close with, "once bitten forever smitten". Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mackie 0 Report post Posted October 8, 2004 PX200 ain't no competition to SR80 if U're able to get the latter around 100 bucks. FWIW, I'm not a Grado fan (more of Beyer) and yet I own SR80 strictly for my rock collection. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest drumma Report post Posted October 8, 2004 i think it is still within the warranty period? anyway, just check properly for any faults. otherwise, it is a very very good deal. sr60 about $120 first hand liao. maybe can also ask why the person wants to sell?

Blues 0 Report post Posted October 8, 2004 At that price, go for the grado sr-80, although they are a little less portable than the px200.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
