Grado iGi versus Beyerdynamic DTX 80

[admin_exported]

Has anyone had a listen to either of these for a comparison? I'm looking to buy some new headphones in this price range and although the DTX 80's have been given a 5 star rating in What Hi Fi, there is stil no review for the Grado's.

Can anyone offer any information or views?

Has What Hi Fi had the Grado's in for review yet?

You could try here for their iGi first impressions.

Thanks for that, the general opinion seems to be disappointing on the Grado iGi's.

Would appreciate some feedback from What Hi Fi on these phones, surely you have had them in for a test by now?

Will post a comparison between the iGi v Sennheiser CX 300 II and Klipsch Customs 2 soon. But first impressions are cheap and poor build quality. The 1st pair broke within 2 days of moderate use. It doesnt come with a carry case unlike the other 2 and along with the poor plastic build, you would think Grado spent it all on the drivers and sound. If you can't wait for the post, then in summary these headphones are lean and bright. If you like your treble dominating then grab a pair now.
