Was looking to get a pair for a while and i finaly have. i demoed alot of headphones on my search all sorts of seinheiser and the sony dj series as well as the sr80s that a friend of mine had.... the sr80s came close to being the pair but to play em with my ipod im sure an amp would have been necessary to push em to their full potential... so i settled on the sr60s , found em ordered em and just received em....right now im breaking em in, shoved em in a drawer with my ipod on medium/high ...and plus the look they have is pretty original and retro...

 

hey, do u know if there is there some sort of a inline amp for my MP3 player. if there is such a thing, and if so where can i get one. thanx a bunch

 

Radioshack has a great headphone amp for around 30$. I use it with my SR 60's and they sound great.

On there you can find a DIY headphone amplifier kit using an altoid tin as an enclosure!

 

Congratulations on your purchase! Check this site for a comparison of the SR60 vs. the SR80:

Regarding the DIY headphone amp, search Google for "CMOY" or check this site:

yea about the travelling... i know what you mean alot of sound escapes due to the open design .i dont relly mind if others can hear the music that im listening to, if anything im doing them a favor..

 

Grados are excellent headphones, the SR60s are you still -- enjoy.

 

I have the SR60's and have bought them for my kids too. Nice 'cheep'cans, you have to spend a lot more to get better

 

Can you buy me a pair too, John?

 

^ sure 'son' hehehe
