Thanks for that information and suggestion Johnk . The SR60i are priced at $119 (same as the Alessandro MS1). I am leaning towards choice 1 (Koss,MS1/SR60i). It would be fun just to compare the 2 especially since the Porta Pros are half the price. However, if the Grado SR125 are much better than the above 3 then I would just go with them.
I’m armed and I’m drinking. You don’t want to listen to advice from me, amigo.
