« Last post by Immersion on Today at 01:56:34 PM »An 'accurate' headphone, isn't intended to sound 'good' as such. They are intended to reproduce the source material accurately.
When I use my Shure E500s and SRH840s for mastering, everything initially sounds hard and middley, as I'm used to using a pair of phones with a 'smiley eq' frequency response on a daily basis (for comfort and sound isolation) and my ears have gotten used to their sound signature.
trust me studio reference "sound" can sound both good an accurate. With headphones the amp plays a big role which gives every one different experiences. accurate is not = boring and flat sounding.
The difference this time is I have no strict budget, since I am ready to spend money for a high end headphone in the price range of K812

I have had the chance to try the Grado, I know one place in my town who got them..I should maybe try them.
I want to point out, it is not a problem to sound headphones that sound extremely good, the hard part is to find headphones which sounds both good AND have accurate with good measurements. Using them for studio use they are simply useless without them being accurate you can't mix with them.. I do not know how flat and accurate the Grados are, but I know they are highly regarded on HiFi forums.
