After a short but arduous journey through the world headphones, I realise that I really like the Alessandro sound signature! I have an AKG501, despite being excellent in its own ways, fail to elicit the emotions and feel I used to associate with music. It is exceedingly clear and the soundstage is expansive, but I feel I'm often listening to the 501 rather than the music. Upon trying out my friend's MS-1 and 2, I just had to rush down to Jaben, only to find it closed With all good luck, I'll try Grados as well since Alessandros are based on Grados after all. Wish me luck in my journey to find my own headphone nirvana.

I guess Uncle Wilson opened late today, you should give him a call before you head out the next time round. Actually I share the same sentiments with you. I find the K501 excellent for classical pieces but play some vocal intensive pieces through it and it somehow doesn't feel right. Good luck on your journey to headphone nirvana. =] |

People call me things like nuts, crazy and insane, I just tell them I am very serious when it comes to my hobbies. What the mind can conceive and believe, it can achieve. The most important thing in this hobby, sit down with a nice drink and enjoy the music. =] | |

I'm a happy owner of the MS1. Very good value for money. Just that you have to change the pads..... |
