And i could easily compare both to the SR125 since that's the Grado that i own. So my comparison might be unreliable, but it matches what other people say. The SR80 are more lively. My advice is to find a dealer and pester them for a few days. Listen to the cans, compare them, bring CDs that you know very well, and just listen. You'll make your own decision eventually. > except for the "holes" > in the can covers... I'm not sure how that would feel compared to the > SR60's solid covers. I'm not certain i understand what do you mean by that. The SR60 that i saw had similar cans to the SR80, as you can see on the gradolabs.com site. -- Florin Andrei http://florin.myip.org/
