I just use Skullcandies... 10$

use SkullCandy and nothing else, unless you are a very hardcore listener. SkullCandy makes many different types, in ear, around ear, and the full clip on ear thing wich is wierd. very good sound and range anywhere from $10-$60

SkullCandy is a pimpy shit for teenagers. Don't appreciate their style.

Disagree. At most pricepoints there is a headphone that performs significantly better overall than a sennheiser in the same price bracket.

Arguably you could stipulate that sonic preference becomes a larger issue than SQ when you get to HD600/650 territory; however these are undoubtedly technically inferior to their direct opposition. I also do not think they sound accurate at all, because of the rolled off highs and the bloated bass in the 650.

The owner of the store (probably the most knowledgeable guy I know) suggested exactly the same headphones I would have suggested.

You cant actually get grado in australia for a reasonable price, however the MS1 is essentially a grado SR125 and is available everywhere outside of america. IMO its slightly better than the SR125 because its slightly more balanced.

The soundstage on these isnt particularly fabulous, but IMO soundstage is hugely hugely overrated in headphones when compared to other factors like tonal balance and seperation.

To keep sound in or out. The reason why I dont like things like denon is because they are closed, but dont keep sound in or out very well at all.

To put it another way; I'd strongly recommend the MS1 for your music genres and pricepoint. If you are using them in loud areas or where people do not appreciate your headphones making noise, get the ES7.

tl;dr The MS1 is your best bet.
It's available for $99 + shipping from the alessandro website (and you may end up waiting months), or you can order from headphones.com.au to thank them for the service for the cool price of $150, and get a local warranty while you are at it for things like manufacturing fault and cable error.

To my knowledge they currently have MS1 stock (i.e. you'll get it probably within a week with no shipping fee), but it never seems to last that long.

They're supra-aural so they will rest on your ears rather than around them. Just FYI

Please read. Grado do not export outside of America. You can get Grado in melbourne australia, if you fancy paying 5x as much.

They do, however, sell drivers to Alessandro who then make virtually identical housing and tweak the drivers slightly to be slightly more neutral (and IMO greater).

Alessandro = Grado.
MS1 = SR125
MS2 = SR325 (avoid)
MSPro = RS1

He's heard most headphones you can imagine.
I'm going to go for the MS-1 for starters and get the ES7s in the future etc.
Thanks for pointing out the fakes btw, I would have bought instantly.
