no. my Hp890 compare to DAViS HP1000 is bigger. so i assume all your 890 and 1000 will be the same.
except my hp890 is extra large, or davis hp1000 is super small version. . heck what the hell i am talking about.

Cannot burn in max volume. You might damage the drivers.

hey guys.. i am in a dilemma now. I donno which to buy, SHP895 or grado sr60.. to ppl who have tried both, which 1 shud i go for?

SHP895! . But if you go to Grado FC, they'll go SR-60!!

If you're trying to make a decision between those 2, I suggest you try both first. At this level, it is not as objective as a graphic card purchasing decision.

If I were you I'd go for SHP895 first since its RM100 cheaper, and I'm poor.

go for iM716
haha

erm, it is depends on ur budget
1 is 180
1 is 280

grado is quite portable and perfome quite nice in music
895 good in multi purpose game,music,movie

haha icic.. any1 else mind to share more?

What will you be using it for? More for movies/gaming/music?

Are you a bass head? Or would you preffer clarity over booming bass?

Is it for portable use or is it for home usage?

How many hours would you have it on?

100% pure music. Not so much of a booming bass, a soft yet powerful bass will do. Home usage. Hmm, around 3 hours daily

if you won't bring it around and use it outside.
go for HP895. =P
after amp it. the sound stage is much more superior.
bass is deeper sound stage wider. overall still better. except portablities.
comparison is made between mine HP890 VS dinodog_JR SR60.

thanks 4 ur comments, that was wat that come across my mind too since i think grado is more of towards bassy type of music n rock kind

Mad cow when u buy check properly really ahhhhhhhhh
if not will become like me kakakakakaaa but stiill good to buy 895

hmm....

is the 805 small enough to be used as a portable? like it won't look awful when you hang it on your neck.

Err SHP8900, thats an entirely new model. But seems like no change on the drivers.

I hope it improves on the SHP895's vice clamp, and maybe make the pads more "breathable". They look even bigger and bulkier on pics compared to the SHP895 O_O

@Davis: So you won't be selling the SHP895 anymore?



It could be using HP890 drivers judging from the name.

Yes, the headband kinda hurts my cranium. No problem after a little mod.

That is some changes on the design to make it light, less clamping and have more cheap feeling (well they are really cheap with the material).

Price may be the same but you no longer have the WOW admiring feeling.

That's why I asked those haven't got their SHP895, better get it now...

i am hunting around for another pair of HP890. still damn love it. hahaha

fren u already got two liao woh...still hunt a same headphone. why not try the shp8900?
