Axiom Home Page Forums General Discussion The Water Cooler Axiom Withdrawal Symptoms: A case study

I can prescribe a pill,....uh two pills, right and left Grado headphone drivers.

To replace M22s I would prescribe a set of Grado MS60s or MS80s to keep the cost of an office visit less than a hunert US bucks.

For the M3 types, the Grado/Alessandro MS-1s are the Gateway Drug of choice.



....I'm listening to Alessandro MS-1 as we speak(type?)and am absolutely hooked.

Seriously; I did a fairly exhaustive search to locate the proper cans to simulate the Axiom sound, and the Grados' came up the closest, with the Alessandro variants being the less foreward of the breed.

Unexpectedly, while listening to some well listened to Beatles numbers, I found a number of instruments and other effects that never made themselves apparent before. I noticed it while sitting in the studio with them while recording.

Grados are regarded as "Fun Cans"

I regard them as "Take-out Axioms"

Take two and call me after spring break.
