A Sound Bargain

Date of Review:  Feb 13, 2008
The Bottom Line: In my opinion, these are the best value Grado has.
Review: These are the first Grados I ever bought. I'm not sure I qualify as a textbook "audiophile," but I have taken back almost every pair of headphones I have ever bought - and usually within 24 hours of their purchase. Why? Because most headphones just...

See ya Sony, enter Grado.

Date of Review:  Oct 1, 2000
Review: I work on a notebook computer anywhere between 40 to 80+ hours per week. Nearly the entire time I'm listening to music (MP3s and CDs). I've been cramming these "nice sounding" Sony ear-buds into my ears for a couple years now -- and it was just the...

Got detail?

Date of Review:  Jun 22, 2004
The Bottom Line: Read
Review: *Updated for greater accuracy

Before further commenting on the Grado SR-80, I must first say that I have owned numerous headphones in the past few years. Most, however, only acted as a catalyst to my appreciation for exceptional sound...

SR80s sound rich and detailed, and are easily driven from an iPod Shuffle

Date of Review:  Mar 25, 2005
The Bottom Line: These headphones sound phenomenal after 30 hours or more of break-in time. My experience is that they work fine without an amplifier. A little bulky for portability, but worth it.
Review: Having gained much knowledge from these reviews before I made my purchase, I feel obligated to contribute to them now that I have my new Grado SR80s. I have had them for about a week and have enjoyed them very much. They are the best headphones I...

Make music come alive with a pair of Grado SR-80

Date of Review:  Feb 25, 2004
The Bottom Line: The best sub-$100 headphones you will every buy, the Grado SR080 is in a class all its own.
Review: After reading hundreds of raving reviews about the Grado SR-80, I decided that I would take the plunge into high quality audio. While I wouldn't concider myself an expert in the world of high end audio, I have always been a proponent of aftermarket...

When Accuracy Matters

Date of Review:  Mar 14, 2002
The Bottom Line: If you want to hear accurate music, or are in a professional situation buy these. If you're addicted to your subwoofer, you might want to pass.
Review: I come to this review as a musician of 10 years with some professional recording experience.

I was looking for headphones for practicing in my apartment. The headphone I currently own (AKG K-300's) I bought years ago and bought them...

great but not GREAT ?!

Date of Review:  Dec 19, 2004
The Bottom Line: Unless you are a real audio geek, I would just stick with $10.00 plastic cheap earbud type headphones.
Review: Well, I have been listening to the Grado SR-80 for the last 4 to 5 days with my Dell Laptop. I listen about 2 to 3 hrs per day, I must say these are great headphones, however I am not exactly ecstatic, I am not getting goosebumps as I listen to my...

Good sound, poor design

Date of Review:  Apr 5, 2007
The Bottom Line: If you are a visually challenged nerd with audiophile tendencies, these earphones are perfect for you.
Review: There are many reviews of the audio capabilities of these headphones and these are almost unanimous in their high praise. I agree with these positive reviews. The Grado SR 80s sounds simply spectacular, and I will not linger on the audio side of...

Grado SR80's are one of best cans up to $300

Date of Review:  Apr 20, 2006
The Bottom Line: Great headphones for the money if you can overlook the bulky look. Open, airy soundstage. Comfortable.
Review: Seems that everyone who has an opinion without qualifications can write a review. I have been in the audio business for 30 some years (Yes, I was involved with High-end audio since I was quite young), and for anyone to say that a pair of Sony...

Amazing Clarity, NOT uncomfortable!

Date of Review:  Jan 20, 2005
The Bottom Line: These are the best headphones you can possibly buy for under $100.
Review: I purchased these initially as a present for someone else- but while testing them out in the store- I realized that I HAD to own a pair.

I had read the reviews posted everywhere about these headphones- and the consensus was that they were...
