RE: Alternative to Grados

Senn HD800s with Bottlehead Crack amp. Heaven. The 800s are *very* heavy, but are also the most comfortable cans I've ever used, and I can have them on for hours. Absurdly expensive, and could probably be sold $100-200 cheaper if they didn't include overdone fancy packaging. Closest thing to 1970's era e-stats I've heard. Bass, which goes *very* deep (*and* clean and fast) is much less "headphone-like" than the Grados, so they never sound like little pistons pounding on your eardrums. Add a Corda Crossfeed circuit to your headphone amp of choice, and you can have something pretty special.
