I enthusiastically recommend this product or service

[The Grado sr60]

High-end gear is typically a waste of money (if you don't believe me, just look at some of the expensive stuff that's reviewed in Stereophile or The Absolute Sound), but it's not always so. The grado sr60 has been around for a decade or so (I vaguely remember it from when I still read Stereophile) and has gotten rave reviews from everyone who gets their hands on them; I finally snapped and spent the US$70 for them, and they'd be a steal at twice the price. Even with crappy amplification (the built-in sound on my Toshiba Tecra 8200) there are musical instruments! That are separate! That play individual notes! And don't drown out the more delicate sounds in the background!)

Oh, yes, I certainly recommend these headphones. But you'll have to get your own, because I will defend these to the death.
