Grado SR80 Professional Headphones

If you're using an amp and would like to take a slight step up in Grado sound quality from the SR60, try the SR80. They have good sound quality, with good bass, articulate mids and subtle highs. They can be a bit uncomfortable if you don't have Grado's new earpads, but are otherwise well-crafted and lightweight. They can be powered by a portable, but an amp is necessary for higher quality sound The SR80 use a coarse, densely pored foam earpad that does not cover the driver; this earpad makes a ring around the outer edge of the earpiece and has a cut-out center.
