Those aftermarket metal gimbals look like one I got from shipibo audio for around 100usd... Great video! I am going to do detachable cable mod myself on my Grado SR60. I love everything about Grado but those god-awful cables!
The gimbals are indeed from shipibo.audio Grado insist on using plastic rodblocks even on $3000 headphones. They do have their own metal gimbals, not as nicely done as these are (made from aluminum tube, rather than machined).
Never warming up a Grado headophone as this will ruin the driver. It changes the diaphragm elasticity properties resulting a different sound signature.

;) yes - the cables do let them down a bit
100$ for the gimbals?!

Yes we do ;)

Yes, you need to keep an eye on the temperatures
quick question, why did you need to tap the positive side with your knive?
I was just marking the driver so I would remember which side was positive when I attached the new wires
I see. Thanks for clearing it out. Admire your videos so much.
are those the stock cups? i mean the stock cups come with engraving grado brand on it
Yes, I believe so
"Grado or Grado if you are that way inclined", was that aimed at me? :-)
LOL.... Yes, thought I had better try to get both pronunciations in there just in case
I think you did a good job with this one and as you say not too difficult to do either. I reckon the owner will be pleased with it.
Thanks - I have some PS1000 and GH2 in the queue as well
Nice
