The Asgard is supposed to pair well with Grados. Anybody using it?

All I use are Grado's with my Asgard.....let the Asgard get up to temp, and the Grado's sound like magic.

Yep, my Asgard is very fastidious in terms of temperature.  When it is cold, the sound is flat.  Once it warms up, it really comes alive.  In fact, my Asgard is more picky this way than my tube amp.  I can play my tube amp after only 5 mins of warm up, but my Asgard really takes 30 mins to warm up and sound alive.  I usually just turn it on and wait for bit before playing anything.

I fully agree the Asgard needs to warm. I find this to be true with most headphones I plug into it.
