I got the series II from here http://www.alessandro-products.com/main ... headphones

the ones in the middle...
They're basically pimped up grados, same as the you got Hades I believe. They were recommended on DOA quite a lot and i must say i really like them, although they could be pushing the highs a bit too much leading me to always having too little highs in my mixes :S

I mean, you can't really tell with the shady pictures on the allesandro website.

from what i had understood at the time of buying, was that the alessandro products are modded and designed in collaboration with grado to be "studio" headphones, as opposed to the hi-fi quality of the sr325. Don't ask me how much of that is marketing and how much isnt

If you're around Geneva one day, i'll let you try them out

well, if they don't get specific about details, (or on the other hand if they use too many flashy technical names) then it's usually just marketing

but you're on for the test if I'm ever around Geneva.
same counts for you
