Sorry to spoil all the fun but... I finally got to hear the HF2 tonight, and while it's better than most other Grados I've heard it still has that shouty quality I dislike about most Grados. Any attempt at raising the volume made me wince a little. I'm definitely not a Grado guy. Nice to actually give them a whirl though. My fave is still the HF2.

I agree, it's a good phone but still has some issues. In comparing them side by side with the HP-1000 I definitely preferred the HP-1000, which I wish I hadn't sold...

Strangely I'm noticing a similar quality in my Smegma Pro, which has me thinking about selling those. Did you ever hear that with yours?

anybody recently studied the market for HF-2 to see what they are fetching? Hard to tell judging by the HF for sale forums, though I am watching to see how vcoheda audiogon auction wraps up.

Thinking of selling mine to cover the Oppo purchase, and I do all my headphone listening on the PS1000 now anyhow.

I believe its going for 450$ and the b stock 350$.

Ugh, I think I've got Grattle coming from the left driver. I can't see anything obviously hairy, though. Do I need to open them up?

I thought Grattle was one of those things that only happened to other people...

lol. I was going to preemptively tell you jokers I had already done that.

Hoover might be too much. Just suck on it.

Or make sure your voice coil is OK - check with a DMM.

Or call John Grado - he'll fix it for you in a New York minute.
