Grado's rule. Have an 80i and have had a classic RS1 as well (just too pricey to keep around) (First and last comment on headphones)
I haven't tried the Grado SR60s, but I've been told they're amazing, and are cheap to boot. A lot of this depends on your definition of portable though: I have these: http://www.amazon.com/AKG-Signature...d_sim_e_8?ie=UTF8&refRID=0FADKFR3X81EV2J3Q17H and these. http://www.amazon.com/Beyerdynamic-715565-Premium-Digital-Microphone/dp/B001BYMZ5W The MMX300s are decent, but the Q701s are mindblowingly amazing, IMO. A lot of this obviously depends on what you're trying to listen to: I tend to listen to stuff that's slightly more "analytical," if that's a term, and so want something that really focuses on mids and highs, and don't care quite as much about bass. Neither of these headphones is what I would consider portable, though I pack light and keep Klipsch Image s4s for travel. Head-fi.org is what I consider the gold standard for this sort of info, and they tend to have all kinds of threads about this. Here's a current favorite: http://www.head-fi.org/t/433318/sho...viewed-creative-aurvana-live-2-added-02-25-14
Actually I'm just sitting back and taking in the fun (info), and BTW, great linkup to Head-Fi.org, I used to be on that sight all the time in the mid-late 2000s and I'm even a registered member there (yes, as BIGHMW), it's where I learned how to be a "head-file" and learn more about portable audio and how to make the experience of portable audio a better one than merely plugging in a pair of stock "el cheapo" earbuds to a portable source, I learned so much more there. BTW, I used to own a second hand pair of Sennheiser HD420 cans I picked up 30 years ago, and not many most headphone amps can drive them, they have an impedance of 600 ohms, most portable amps, even the C-moy's and DIY amps can only handle up to 300 ohms. But really, guys, I was only making a brief comment about the head/ear gear some of the Gunners were wearing in the tunnel at Wembley, I wasn't really expecting it to be a headphones debate, but, it did.
Here are mine, y'all: And no, I'm not an audiophile. They were $20 on Amazon, they have Darth Vader on them, and they work. Back on topic, roll on Hull in a month's time, and West Ham today.
Awesome - thanks for that. The best quote from the video may have been, "Ljundberg... he's got the better of Terry..."
Awesome video....makes me think there is just no chance for us to win this cup without me crying like a baby in public.
