The original Grado HP-1 headphones were spectacular. I bought them along with the Grado headphone amplifier in 1991 and I loved them. In fact, I still have them 33 years later. I just sent them in to have the ear-speakers replaced, but they don't seem to sound as good as I remember. Grado told me they couldn't replace the ear-speakers with the original drivers, so I thought they might sound even better with the newest transducers. I guess that's not the case. Anyway, they still sound pretty good, but I like my STAX SR-007 MK2 headphones better.Come to think of it, I like my new $450 FiiO FT5 planar headphones better, too.
Go figure!
