After my dog ate up my Sennheiser hd280, I'm still looking for a good studio headphone.
I just found the Grado RS1 and AKG K1000 on the internet and I wonder if they're any good for mastering my (dance) mixes.
They're expensive but they seem so great to me, that I'm willing to pay the big bucks.

Please, if you know anything about them or any other superb headphones please let me know.
Thanks in advance

djones - I doubt *very* much that people aren't replying because your post is in the "wrong" forum.
Actually, I would contest that this is the correct forum, since the headphones are such an integral part of your (and many others') DAW setup.

Unfortunately, I can't help on your headphones issue. I use a pair of JVC HA-D600s. They're not very good :?

A friend of mine has got the AKGs and I like them (almost needless to say, he likes them as well).
Can't say much more about it. Myself, I have a pair of Sennheiser's HD25 and think they are so-so-ish. I often find them to be too closed. Nice to search for nasty details in your midrange frequencies, not too great to mix on them.
There are 3 kinds of people:

This pair seems very nice for mastering because of it's very accurate frequency response.
Could a pair of these small headphones be any good for production.
