The guys child had ripped out the stylus, he sent it back as a retip. Sold it to me for what he paid Grado.Sure did take a long time to break in the bastard.
Shoot me your address to jim_howard_pdx@yahoo.com and I will mail you a comparison CD of the Grado vs the DL103R so you can hear them first hand.
Cheers!
