Yup yup yup. Hence the post. Nearest dealer is in Austin, which I
never travel to, and is 3 hours away.

Of course, how close are the Sennheisers to the sound of the Grados? I
just looked, and there are 7 dealers in town, including Circuit City
(wtf?). So, how close is the sound between the two? Thanks for the
pointer on the replacement pads. I'm looking at spending $80-$100.
Low end, I know, but these will still be a step up from my Koss'.

If you lived in Pittsburgh I could make you a good deal on a set of SR-60's.
After I got my Audio Technica ATH-AD700's the Grados seem like toys.
Oh, the AT's were $115 shipping included.

Interesting. Did you happen to compare the AD700s to the A700s, Greg?
Or maybe to the A900s? The open ATs are said to be a bg improvement on
the closed models.
