Sony Qualia 010 have a special sound you might not like also. I was surprised the first time I heard them, it wasn't exactly as good as I expected. I'm curious about how many people have actually heard them vs want them so badly.

Hello I don't write here often I wanna write something about the HE60. I tried them out, because I'm a Grado head, and while they have a more forward presentation, they lack the deep bass of the OmegaII, which I like a lot. However, they don't lack bass and I do find them to have more or equal bass than some other popular headphones like the K1000. They do give a unique forward presentation, that does not ressemble the Stax presentation, and they do excel at certain song. They surely give a nice contrast to the Stax OII to certain people and to me, but frankly, I do prefer everything on the bassy side and I've always been like this. I find the Stax OII have more bass than most Grado headphones. As to whether the HE60 are better than other lower end Stax can, I don't think you can compare them so much. I do think the Sennheiser sound is a different approach than the Stax sound. I did have a pair of Stax Lambda Signature, and as I remember, they were very nice (and did have an awesome bass), but were totally different than the HE60. So, if you like the OII sound, but want a totally different but enjoyable taste, the HE60 is a good option. You like the "darker sound", more bassy sound, even less Gradoed sound ( ), they are not for you. Are they worth 1000$US or 2000$US in price? I don't know, I paid that price to try them out and was satisfied. Price is very subjective in the world of audio.

Qualia sound very nice but badly need some warmth in the sound. They are just plain too dry and analytical. I much prefer the Sony MDR-R10 over them, in the Sony series.

Seems like it worked... Yes I will take down one of them. I've found many of my wanted things in the past few days.

wtf you just sold a pair 2 days ago.

I've been struck by luck: this smiley is appropriate.

Lucky Recstar I've been searching for a while now. Can't find those. I made a very good offer to Mr.Nice on Head-Fi for his RS-1 but he told me he sold them for a big amount. Will keep searching

I ask for pictures with a white paper with his name and date on it. He said he'll send those after auction's end. We want mass production MDR-R10!

I did put some Siemens CCa in mine and it sounds wonderfull. I had some Siemens E88CC before that sounded good too, compare to the Sovtek and JJ I had.

looks so cheap. I hope Grado don't make the choice to make the cheapest Headphones at the highest price.

I just bought some Siemens CCa from the 60's I should get them soon and tell you the diffreent with my current Siemens E88CC

Thanks! I will add pics really soon. Just need a camera.

I got some Grado speakers... Need pics?
