Excellent headphones at a 'budget' price. Keeping the 'budget' aspect in mind I won't fault the lack of head-band padding (still quite comfortable) or somewhat fragile construction. This is a sweet sounding set of cans, and that's what counts. Fairly deep, nicely detailed bass; has an authoritative character there. Mids are reasonably neutral and natural, voice comes over well. Highs have a nice open/airy sound w/o glare. Easy to listen to for LONG periods. If on a budget strongly consider the SR80's. They easily outshine the Koss Pro 4AA Titanium phones I had. The closest 'good deal' I'm familiar with would be the Audio Technica ATH-M40x's, and between the two I prefer the SR80's by a hair or two. Grado simply makes great headphones.Read full review
These headphones sound absolutely incredible. If you put them on me and asked me how much they should cost based on sound alone I’d say $600 (I’ve never heard an actual $600 headphone though). They will open up well-recorded and produced tracks to a point where it’s like you’re discovering it new every time. You can hear each element so clearly and precisely with a very wide and balanced stereo image. Any serious listener or musician should get these to hear the most realized, transparent version of any track. They let noise out since they’re open back but it’s not that bad- I can listen when my gf’s asleep and there’s a fan on. They’re not comfortable. After wearing them for about 2 hours my ears get sore, and if you listen to them a lot for a couple days in a row it can build up. It helps to take frequent breaks. For me it’s mostly because of the on-ear design that presses against your ears, I don’t know if there’s any way around that. But overall 100% worth it- amazing value. Any more-than-casual fan of music should buy these.Read full review

These headphones are the best cans I have ever owned. I use mine with older CD players and an older Sansa player that is almost smaller than the headphone jack. What I like most about these headphones is that it is like listening to new music again for the first time... Every song that I have ever grooved to in the past has had to be re-listened to. (and it is better.) I've used the headphones so much that I wore the cord out. (They're my full time headphones on my laptop.) I have yet to send them back in to get serviced, but Grado is supposed to service them. They have a longer cable than most headphones and someimes this is problematic when you move around the house or wherever. The sound is so good that you will forget that they are on your head. They are uncomfortable after a few hours of wearing them and this is probably a good thing because it is good to let your ears rest between albums. These cans are also open so that you can hear other noises in the room, so you can't exactly tune everything out. If I were to make a recommendation: Throw all the other headphones you have in the garbage and get a pair of these. You will close yourself off from the world for an entire week or two just rediscovering music you loved from 20 years ago. You will not go though buyer's remorse for paying $100.00 for a pair. They're worth every dollar.Read full review

These headphones. Where do I start? I am not new to the game of 'audiophile' headphones. My everyday pair are Sennheiser HD650s. And for traveling I use a wonderful pair of Sennheiser Momentums. Grados are not a 'neutral' sound signature that you will use to mix audio. But, if you want to ENJOY your music? I cannot think of a better option at this price point. Everything I've put through these has renewed my love for them. Classical, rock, metal, alternative. I cannot find something that these present poorly. Maybe edm? They don't have skull crushing bass. But The bass is full bodied and not lacking in any way. Just doesn't punch since they're open back. Simply put, everyone needs to try these Grados. The build quality makes you think they're from the 80s, which was my initial draw to them. I guess I'm a hipster but I think they look awesome. Paired to my Fiio BTR5? I just love music again. They've also replaced my HD650s as my gaming headphones. Halo Infinite through these makes you think you are the master chief. So do I recommend these? Well it should be obvious by now lol. Buy them.

Opinions concerning audio equipment can be very subjective. IMHO, Grado makes the world's best head phones. I believe it is widely accepted the Grado SR60 provides the best bang-per-buck of any headphone. However the SR60 is Grado's bottom-of-the-line head phone and their cheapest. The next grade up is the SR80e. Not surprising, cost scales with quality. Perfect sound quality is impossible to achieve because it costs infinite money. Extremely low quality headphones (Chinese knock-offs) cost about $5 and are a waste of money. The SR80e is a better headphone but about $20 more than the SR60. I also own an SR125e and an SR225. The SR225 does have the highest sound quality but its bang-per-buck is inferior to the SR125e. IMHO, the SR125e has slightly better bang-per-buck than the SR80e. Again, the common wisdom is the SR60 has the best bang-per-buck for ALL headphones made. A problem with evaluating sound quality is one's memory of sound quality lasts about 20 seconds. A person needs to listen to one headphone and then immediately switch to a different one to form a valid comparison. Having done that experiment, it is my opinion the SR125e offers the best bang-per-buck for all of the Grado headphones.Read full review
