Grado SR325is DescriptionGrado SR325is Open Back Headphones Prestige Series. New and improved in 2009, the SR325is are Grado's top of the range headphones in the Prestige Series. This next generation headphone features an upgraded driver design and enhanced mass allocation in the golden metal housing. Vibrations of sound affected by transient distortions are lessened by the way the air moves and responds thanks to the new driver and metal housing. You will notice an improved control of the upper and lower spectrum of frequencies resulting, in cooperation, that the SR325is better sustains Grado's world famous midrange. Durable materials have been used in the construction of the SR325is with spongy soft earcups and flexible vinyl headband along with metal height adjusters. The superiority of the material is harmonised in quality by the open and lucid soundstage of the Grado SR325is. The open design of the SR325is' ear cups offer a sound that has little noise attenuation from external noise. This means that those around you will hear sound ‘leaking' from the headphones. However, the advantage of this attribute, due to the lack of sound bouncing back from the earcups, is an open and noticeably lucid sound representation. Portable media players have no difficulty driving the SR325is; nonetheless a headphone amplifier will perk up the overall detail of treble and add additional power to the bass response. Open cell foam utilised by Grado Labs for the earpads covering the vented diaphragm is made from soft, porous material providing an extra comfortable fit. Metal height adjusters assure the SR325is will stay put when on the move. A rotation of 360° of these metal adjusters also means that the SR325is can lie flat on surfaces making them ideal for travelling. The SR325is will generate a sound that is pure Grado, warm harmonic colour, rich full bodied vocals, exceptional dynamics and an smooth top end. Allow Grado to brighten up your music with the SR325is Prestige Series. Grado SR325is ReviewsWhat Hi-Fi? Award Winner 2010: Best On-Ear Headphones £150 - £500 
"Stunning clarity and detail resolution; powerful bass performance", "Consider that a pair of speakers of similar sonic ability would set you back at least three grand". "these Grados are a no-brainer" Hi-Fi Choice Magazine Grado SR325is Review, Richard Black - Editors Choice
"...the degree of insight these headphones offer into sounds is really very impressive. This is high quality music reproduction, thoroughly deserving of serious attention." Penthouse magazine Grado SR325is Review - Chuck Tannert"The retro design makes these headphones look like they'd be more at home reproducing Mozart than pumping out Jay-Z. But looks can be deceiving: The gold coloured cans churn out unrivaled sonics no matter what's sent through them. They produce strong, accurate bass, warm and natural mids, and crisp clean highs with almost no tonal coloration. They're impressively lightweight..." Grado Customer Review - Chris Neuman:"I just purchased the SR325i and am amazed at the fidelity. According to everything I read, I would not be able to discern between the SR60 and SR325i without a headphone amp. I strongly disagree; I can hear an extreme difference. Don't get me wrong, I love the 60s, but the 325i is awesome. Now, I need to purchase your amp!"
