Anyone able to compare these to the Grado SR325e? From what I've read about both pair, I should be happy with either one. I listen to jazz, classical, acoustic etc. I like clarity and detail and natural bass. I like that the Grado is made in America, but is it $100 better than the K7XX? I don't want to miss this drop again but I need to be sure I'll be happy with my choice. Unfortunately, I have nowhere to audition HPs and need to rely on reviews and forums like this. Any help is greatly appreciated.
dbkelly8I had Grado rs1 and gs1000. Also hd800. For your budget I would recommend hd600. Neutral headphone that fit your budget. Unlike these hd600 are made in Ireland and not china. Also easy to power.
TheRealVladThanks for the suggestion. I have also been considering the HD600s - can't go wrong owning a classic like that. BTW, those are some impressive models you have or had in your collection. Thanks again.
dbkelly8It all depends on what you want from your headphone.
Check out some of the headphone measurement charts on innerfidelity. The hd600 may have a heavenly realistic midrange, but the bass is rolled off. The k7xx has much more present sub bass.
