A Grado SR series measurement would be welcome to compare with the many that can be found elsewhere.

To answer in the negative, I didn't like the MassDrop Cavalli LCX single-ended with my Grado 80s or 225s. Eq may be the ultimate solution. Even the spotify app five band eq made a difference in subjective enjoyment.

I do use SoundSource as my EQ application to use with the Grado's to tone down some of the brightness. Great application that allows a 10band EQ plus has built in EQ profiles specific to headphones from sources such as Oratory, Crinacle and such.
