Grado SR60 [Posted on 2008-05-15]
Have been using Grado SR60s for close to a month now. Truly amazing sound (though the bass could have been better, but I knew it before I decided to buy it, so no complaints).
But, one thing I noticed is that the sound leaks out a lot. I have been using it with my laptop and even at the lowest sound levels I can hear the sound from the headphones if I hold it 2-3 feet away. And if I crank up the volume a bit, I can use it almost like a substitue for my laptop speakers :). Maybe it is because of the open air chamber design, but I never saw any mention of this in any of the reviews I read. If you like your music loud and if you are in a public place you could get lots of stares from passersby.
Pimp my phones... [Posted on 2008-05-23]
Acoustic and aesthetic mods are quite common with these great cans, worthy of 5 stars before you pimp them :)
The cans can be removed from the band, and the band replaced, the pads on the sr60 (comfies) can be exchanged for bowls, like the SR80s... changing comfort, and a basshead mod involves taping the outside of those bowls to make much more pronounced bass possible... and lots more.
So your great sounding phones can be customized to be even better sounding phones. Google Grado mods.
Great Sound [Posted on 2008-05-24]
Excellent sound, I'm hearing lyrics and details in my mp3 files I didn't know were there. My mp3s sound wonderful. The sound is very smooth, balanced and clear. Way way better sound than the $25 headphones I had been using - no comparison. I find them comfortable and definately worth the price. These are fantastic for relaxing and enjoying the music but they are too big and heavy to go jogging or biking.
Grado SR60 Rocks [Posted on 2008-05-27]
I really enjoy the Grado SR60 headphones. I don't find much sound leakage as others have noted, possibly because I don't listen at higher volumes. They are quite comfortable to wear and the sound and tone is amazing, as well as a nice bass reproduction. My only downloads (slight ones) are that the thickness of the cord makes it hard to keep my MP3 player in place on my desk, and the potential "dork factor" of wearing the headphones as I walk outside keeps me from using them other than indoors.
WONDERFUL SOUND, GREAT VALUE! [Posted on 2008-06-09]
The best end result of my Koss PRO-AAA'S breaking (after 20 years!) was my purchase of these headphones. They're the least expensive Grado model, but I love their sound. (Plus - if anything should wear out - Grado's repair service has been excellent.)
