Hi, new thread following fellow forum members excellant advice regarding headphones & subsequently now own a shiny pair of Grado SR325is. I am now anchoring after my next upgrade step. I have Cyrus CD8SE, GS Novo (with some cheap but well respected Cambridge Audio interconnects). I was wondering which step would be the best improvement, the Cusat50 I/C or the PSU1? Any help from you kind fellows would be appreciated.

Good choice on the 325iS Jog3004. Unless the CA interconnect is one of the top ones, the Cusat50 is likely to be an immediate improvement. But I would (and did!) buy the PSU1 first.

Yes, I must admit that the SR325is are rather good out of interest, what benefits did you notice with the PSU1?

Agreed, I borrowed a pair of 325iS whilst waiting for the LCD-2's (which sound very different). Really impressed by them but I love the bass on the LCD-2's.
 
The PSU1 gave me a clearer sound at mid to high volumes with more dynamic/punchier and deeper bass. That was with my DAK Novo and Grado 80 and 325's.
