GRADOS BE LIK WUT IN DA BASS YO

not only isn't it funny coming from you, but its just fucking annoying. Get your own act.

But your member names are so similar, starts with a "J", ends with a number.

Hey there is my old HP-2 . Glad you're enjoying them Elephas.

Hi riceboy, your HP-2 is being handled and taken care of better than the PS-1. I won't let anything except air touch the lettering. Every time I listen to it I imagine a "virtual air dielectric field" around the housings.

Unfortunately, it doesn't sound so good with the RSA Raptor, Lehmann Black Cube Linear or AT-HA5000, the three dynamic amps I have. I'm planning to go balanced, but this HP-2 is the one headphone I can't recable. So I've placed an order for a Zana Deux.

Awesome!

Estimated delivery is sooner than I expected, mid-December.

It will be a showdown between the Zana Deux and Raptor.

I'm hoping the Grados will improve. If the PS-1 gets any better, it might even move past the L3000 on the "Top 5 List."

This is not even a contest lol.

I can't wait to hear how the PS-1 vs L3000 "battle of bass" will turn out.

I've been using an adapter for the XLR recabled PS-1 and L3000.

The PS-1 definitely has strong bass impact and quantity. The first time I listened to it was a "Whoa, I'm getting pounded," experience. I've never thought of myself as a basshead, instead thinking that I value soundstage, imaging, details, air, separation, and other "high-refinement" type qualities.

But after listening for a while, the heavy bass seemed to recede and smooth over as I became more used to the sound. The PS-1 also has very good details, separation and air. Imaging and soundstage isn't up to R10 or O2 standards, but the L3000's isn't either.

This is with the Raptor, Lehmann and AT-HA5000. Hopefully the Zana Deux will be an ear-opening experience. If the PS-1 and L3000 get any better, they'll be competitive versus electrostats; the PS-1 would take on the HE60 and the L3000 vs. the SR-007.

I'm listening to posty's dark wood rs1's with no serial number. They sound so good. I think the k501 and er4's were Grado's minions sent beforehand to shape up my ears and get me used to glaring treble, then the big daddy vinty-rs1 comes in and finishes me off.

Once hater, now worshiper. Thanks jack

Well, I haven't heard the Zana Deux, but I've heard one of the older and cheaper Eddie Current tube amps [Mike, what was the model number?] and I'd say that unless you just REALLY like the sound signature of the Raptor, the Zana will stomp it into the ground. Just a guess though, of course.

I recall reading about vintage RS-1s sounding better and less bright/harsh than recent units.

But the K501 with glaring treble? I thought it had fairly neutral and not emphasized, definitely not harsh or bright. Its midrange is superb, one of the best and in my memory always somehow better than the K701's. Too bad about its non-existent bass.

Congrats on the Zana Deux!
