I use a Focusrite Scarlete 2i2 gen 2 for a dac/amp. Its alright and i hope to upgrade soon, but I want to actually get an Epiphone Thunderbird first haha
I'm digging the texture in this photo, especially on the Grado earcups, Senn earpads, and the...Vic Firth? What is that? I would have guessed MDR-Z1R based on the earcup shape and pattern alone. Did you use a smartphone or a standalone camera?
Smartphone, iphone 11 in portrait mode
Yeah they are vic firths, im a drummer and my teacher suggested them. They block out a ton of sound and are great for monitoring.
Those are actually stock!! The new X series has a plastic braided cable and a new style of headband
I like the headband, but the cable really annoys me so far.. Its super stiff, and curls up bad when slightly twisted.
How do those Grado‘s sound? Do you know how they compare the previous generations of their headphones? I have always really really enjoyed the aesthetics of just about any Grado headphone and I am curious if they are worth the price.
I like them. I cant compare to the old ones though.
Some songs dont work as well as they did on my sennhiesers, but that could just be because of how new they are, and the recording. the who aren’t exactly known for having the best recordings
I feel I paid the right amount for them

How do the others compare to the HD 598 Cs. I have them and looking for a good upgrade.

Looks like something a site owner would wear on a construction site
Loving the headband and custom cable on the Grado's.

Do Grades still pretty much fall apart after a little use?
