With decades of award-winning talent, the latest Grado SR80 Classic headphones remain firm favourites in their field.
Moving on up
Moving up from the SR60 model, the SR80 Classic delivers a tighter bass response, a more transparent and open midrange, and extended high frequency detail. Although the style has remained largely the same since 1991, these iconic headphones have now received a raft of detailed improvements.
New X2 driver
The Classic generation of SR80 gets the latest X2 Series drivers for improved consistency, control, and refinement. Built around a Mylar diaphragm, copper voice coil and rare earth magnetic system, they’re easy to drive, making the headphones the ideal partner for your portable.
Bronze cable
Supplied with Grado’s Bronze cable in a fixed configuration, the wired connection is durable, resistant to interference and provides a low resistance link for sparkling sound.
Durable design
Built simple and tough, the SR80 Classics make the ideal headphones for a life on the move. Folding earpieces make the headphones easy to pack once you’ve arrived at your destination.
Improved comfort
Fully adjustable, lightweight earpieces and soft Grado F cushions make the SR80 Classic light and comfortable to wear. Refinements to the padded synthetic headband further enhance comfort and durability.
Hand-built in Brooklyn
Each pair of SR80 Classic headphones is hand-built in Brooklyn. With a history that stretches right back to 1953, the company is still run by the Grado family, giving continuity to the product design and style. Evolution rather than revolution has kept the Grado headphones at the peak of their game and top of their class.
