Music Gearheads Tech Talk / Re: Cans.....Whats on your head?
« Last post by LNerell on Yesterday at 04:52:28 PM »Ive been using Grado Headphones these last few years. Started with the Grado Sr125. A recommendation by mastering engineers for QC & checking mixes. The detail that comes out of these is quiet amazing. Grado are notoriously uncomfortable but most put up with it because of the sound they reproduce.
I've been using these for a few years now. I got a pair for free from the music library at work who were going to throw them away because the foam ear pieces were missing. I bought some foam for them on amazon and they work fine now. But 99% of the time I sill you my monitors, I don't use headphones very often, unless I am recording something acoustically in my studio, or working late at night.

A special moment in time as the OB-X8 is a collaborative effort between Tom Oberheim and Dave Smith as the video below explains.

In this demo of what looks like a prototype OB-X8.....any fan of Steve Roach's Structures from Silence can hear a version played at about 1.06 minutes. The sound is perfect........https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fINfcawRYE0
