Quality


I have written reviews for the 125s senns and the koss pro 4as as well as cheaper sets i use on an mp3 player


With the less efficient gs1000e it gives me use of 75 of the volume knob


For a fair comparison new gcushions were procured for both headphones because sound quality is heavily affected by old cushions


If there is a downside it is with the horrible quality that some companies release a music if the recording is filled with dist...  Read More

Price


I purchased these at my local audio shop rather than on amazon and despite the high price i consider it to be a tremendous value


I really wanted to buy the ps1000 but the price is just too high and i dont really like the sound that much


But that is just the price you pay for perfection

Shipping


I was able to get free 2nd day shipping and no sales tax and that helped a bit


These phones are that fast and transparent

Packaging/appearance


The darker color on the gs1ks headband makes it easier to see creases in the leather which are nearly invisible on the gs2k

Competitiveness


Ive compared it against the fiio e12 and the denon da10 and the objective2 provided the best performance


Eventually i came home plugged them into everything from an iphone ipodpad and to an oldschool rotel preamplifier and played them a lot


It has a very thick nonreplaceable ycord that have no microphonics cable sound when moved or rubbing against clothing whatsoever


There are a number of alternate earpads that can be used for grado headphones

    One note the ear cover allows others to clearly hear what youre listening to


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    The only problem with them is its physical properties the way it sits on the ears very uncomfortable comparing to both denon hps i have but what the heck im listening to them pretty much all the time at work sacrificing its uncomfortable part for its sound quality


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Of course there are always something better i may upgrade to the ps1000 one day when im ready for it but for now i say the rs1i is a keeper for years to come i wouldnt sell it for anything


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    I made the mistake by selling my ps500 so early im not going to make that mistake again


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Dont be discouraged by the bad reviews the rs1e are getting from some people


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    I am an owner of the original rs1 with the button on the side and i do admit these headphones have a different sound signature but it is not bad


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Again do not be pushed off by the naysayers burning these headphones in has a dramatic impact on their final sound


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    But like nice things you have to be careful they arent overengineered on purpose
