Description

These headphones feature updates to Grado’s previous SR325is headphones, including an improved driver design, new aluminum housing, and a high-quality cable.You’ll hear clear, highly articulated sound — drums with plenty of “snap” and body, guitars and acoustic instruments with natural warmth and openness, plus taut, tuneful bass. These Grados can be driven using the headphone outputs on most home audio systems, and even work great with a portable player or laptop. But they’ll really sound their best with the addition of a headphone amplifier.

Born in Brooklyn and built to perform

Each pair of SR325e headphones is still made right in Brooklyn, New York where the Grado family has been building award-winning audio gear for almost 60 years. The vented “open-air” earcup design makes for powerful, extended low frequency response and a more spacious soundstage. Hybrid metal/plastic enclosures and aluminum air chambers give you finely-detailed, crystalline highs. The ultra-high purity copper voice coils and sturdy eight-conductor connecting cable provide a smooth, refined sound with a wide frequency response that lets you hear all the music. A genuine leather headband is the nice final touch to these high-quality ‘phones.

From our review of the previous Grado SR325is Headphones

I had no complaints with how the SR325is headphones handled the odd meanderings of my song collection. All the tracks were clear, clean, and, most importantly, fairly free of color. I felt like I was getting a lot of the original engineers’ intent… If you can swing a headphone amp in the bargain, you’ll have a listening solution that can make your music collection come alive, while adding a touch of “industrial chic” to your favorite listening space.
