N@Z 0 Report post Posted June 13, 2003 Still wow's me even now. Much more than dare I say it, the HD600s! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Blues 0 Report post Posted June 13, 2003 hahaha... agree with you there N@z.. the hd600 didn't really have much wow factor to me also. I think rs-1 has it for me man!!! uuuoooohhhh!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
N@Z 0 Report post Posted June 13, 2003 What the HD600 lacks in wow factor it has good staying power. Meaning I can listen to it for hours compared with the RS-1. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Blues 0 Report post Posted June 13, 2003 huh? nandeska? how long can you listen to it? what's your gripe? is it the comfort? I find they sound fantastic.. but I don't know because I only wore them for like.. 5 minutes? out of which amp do they sound best? is it your meta42 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
N@Z 0 Report post Posted June 13, 2003 Not comfort, since I use the siren yellow pad mods! It's the forward nature that causes fatigue over a few hours. If you listen to it on a brief audition you won't notice it. The HD600's forte is the relaxing nature when rock or more uptempo music is not on the play list. Oddly, I like listening to Pink Floyd on them. The RS-1 more acoustic based rock. Etys ANYTHING! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Firefox 0 Report post Posted June 13, 2003 The most wow.. hehe... HP-1. Not that I can get a seller who'd part with them now anyway. But hey! Their the next best thing to my HD570's for now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
fishball79 0 Report post Posted June 13, 2003 I used to own HD580s and compared it against 600s, i thought they were great phones. But recently, after owning the Grados, as coloured as they may be, I find myself bopping head and thoroughly enjoying most genres better. I'll have to A/B grados and Sennheisers again to confirm but i really think the grados are definitely more exciting. Since im more of a rock person, the grados suit me better.

Blues 0 Report post Posted June 13, 2003 fishball do you find your 225 fatiguing? of all the grados the only one I heard most unfatiguing is probably the sr-225... so I want to know how it is Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
fishball79 0 Report post Posted June 13, 2003 Only fatigue it gives me so far is the pain in the outermost tips of my ears from the padding... Longest time i had the cans on were 4 hrs Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
