NEW Jasper Documentation!

Hello All,

First, I want to thank everyone that has been patient with me so far in getting these things done one at a time…

I know it is not easy to get some of these things completed without good documentation.  So, with the help of a few community members, I have started what is a very rough draft of our documentation.  It is neither complete, or ready….  However, we are adding information as we go, so keep a close eye.  Even feel free to clone it, and contribute.  There will be documentation on how to do both of those coming as well.  Feel free to watch here, the repository, or the Support Forums/Slack for updates.  I update them all.

If you have items you would like to see added to the documentation, I would run it by myself, or d34dman first.  If we have not already written it (there are some not committed yet); then we will just let you know to put in a PR (aka Pull Request).  Once we have both reviewed it and give it a thumbs up.  We will merge it.

Alright, all that said… Here is the link to the documentation!

 

Thanks,

Matthew Curry

10yrs of Waiting! Finally got my Grados!

As many of my friends know, I am a bit of a audiophile. Not extreme, but I appreciate quality. I have had many headphones, from many manufacturers. Some very expensive, some very cheap.

I really like these headphones, as they give the best sound hands down; and they are very inexpensive.  Of course with anything you can spend more if you want.

So here are the Pros/Cons:

SR60e

 

Pros:

  • Amazing Sound
  • Low power Requirement
  • Comfortable

 

Cons:

  • Not the headphones you need if you are concerned about others hearing you.  It is very loud externally.
  • They are not what I would call “Pretty”, but I honestly consider that a Pro 🙂

 

Thanks to the family at Grado for an amazing product.  I am always willing to review any other of your products.
