I bought Emotiva GR1's to replace the Monolith 1060c's

So, I was very happy with the SQ of the 1060c's, but the build quality is so desperately poor that they're next to unusable. The nut/screw assembly falls apart and I've already had one pair replaced.( Thanks to Monoprice's 5-year warrantee)

I've heard good things about the GR1's and they're on sale now with Emotiva's BIG EGO1 portable DAC, so I ordered that combo. Anyone have the GR1's? What's the take on the FR on them? Thanks for any input.

Apologies for not responding. So, I really like the GR-1's. I don't find them too bassy, even with no tone adjustments. They're comfortable and well-built. I already have the older version of the HE400S, the Massdrop HE4xx, and I agree that they sound better with good electronics. 

My next 'phones will likely be the new Meze $700 cans. I love the 99 Classics as well.
