Grado SR 60

Pros: Fantastically transparent, detailed, rich sound.

Cons: Odd looking and not terribly comfortable...but you can't beat the price.

Review: I think Grados break every single rule of modern electronics design and that's why I love them so much. Fashionably chic? Forget about it. You want GQ, go get those Sony headphones that look like they are about to fall off the back of your head,...

Pros: Inexpensive, sound great on gutless players.

Cons: Ugly, better cans are available at higher dollars.

Review: I spend lots of time listening to very good headphones, and my tolerance level for cheap headphones is pretty low, BUT, the one pair of inexpensive headphones that I don't mind using on a regular basis are the Grado SR 60s. Simply put they are the...

Pros: awesome clarity and detail, punchy bass, great buy

Cons: not everyone digs the Grado sound, uncool retro look, ear fatigue after long periods

The Bottom Line: The relationship between cost and value is unrivaled by any phones anywhere.

Review: "You'll be hard pressed to find a better pair of
headphones for the money ...."
- Chris Jones / The Perfect Vision magazine

"...an exceptional value with no peers in its price range."
- Radio World / Bruce Bartlett Vol.20,...

Pros: Great response from low to high; Tight, Precise Bass; Smooth, Transparent Sound

Cons: Uncomfortable, Ugly, colored presentation may turn off some people

Review: Simply put, these are the best headphones, sound-wise, you can buy for under $70. They sound incredible from 20 - 20,000Hz, as advertised. These headphones were so highly recommended that I finally decided I should go out and buy some, and since...

Pros: Great range, price, "open" design, comfortable

Cons: Others can hear you

Review: Believe it or not, some people pay hundreds of dollars for a good set of headphones. But if you're looking for great sound at a reasonable price, the Grado SR-60's are the way to go.

The bass on these headphones is deep and solid; these are...

Pros: Outstanding sound quality, far above any other $60 pair, and bass to match the price.

Cons: On the expensive side for some, sound gets in, slightly uncomfortable after a couple hours.

The Bottom Line: After 2 or 3 hours, your ears might hurt. They're big, but the "cans" swivel 360. The sound quality will make you weep, and then want to nuke Sony.

Review: My brother actually owns these, but I use them more than him :) For under 100 dollars, these are by far the best headphones for a portable player you'll find. OK, so there's a couple sub-100 ones that are better, but if you look closely at reviews...

Pros: Inexpensive, great sounding, efficient, made by a little outfit in Brooklyn.

Cons: May reveal the true quality of your MP3 collection.

The Bottom Line: You can't go wrong at this price!

Review: After hearing raves for the Grado phones for years, I finally bought the entry-level SR60s last December. My goal was to find something more fun with which to listen to my ever expanding library of digital music via my iPod or when working at my...

Pros: Light, open wide dynamic sound, accuracy and details, cheap.

Cons: Fragile when steping on 6 ' long cord, everybody can hear your music and you can hear everything around you.

Review: It is hard to imagine a world without music and listening to music at home can be a wonderful and relaxing activity that often brings good memories and wonderful thoughts. The Grado SR-60 headphones will give you this same feeling while on the...

Pros: Low price, performance

Cons: Clunky styling, overly thick cable, sound leak greater than most

The Bottom Line: A great pair of headphones for portable or home use.

Review: OVERVIEW
On the recommendations of Headroom (www.headphone.com), Hi-Fi Choice (Great Britain) and Consumer Guide (which had rated these headphones as "Best Buy" for years), I decided last Monday to order the Grado...

Pros: Fantastically crisp sound, open ear design allowing for fuller range of sound

Cons: Budget styling, If you are looking to block out all sound then look elsewhere

Review: I have had some concerns over my hearing for quite some time. Although young in years, I have spent too much time with headphones cranked way up and, as a result, have done some permanent damage to my hearing. The damage, thankfully is subtle - in a...
