This ad is for a used pair of Grado SR-80 Headphones for $60, including standard shipping to lower 48. Functional like new, rarely used by me. Foam surrounds are looking a little aged and could be cleaned or replaced.
Built on the same features as the SR60, but utilizes a 4 conductor connecting cable and larger ear cushions, the result of which gives a more open stage. The SR80 provides an improved bass resonance, which enhances the overall detail. John Grado says he strove for the best sounding phones for the money, and with the glowing reviews the SR80's have received, who can argue.
ROLL OF HONOR.
What HI-FI
"Creating a stereo image of excellent depth and clarity, they ensure every detail is heard, every strand separated."
First Headphone ever awarded a "GOLDEN NOTE AWARD" Presented by the Academy for the Advancement of High End Audio.
Winner of Audio Video's "GRAND PRIX AWARD"
"In the recording studio or for the serious hobbyist, I can't think of a more versatile or dimensionally satisfying personal speaker system."
Fi magazine / Vol. 2, No. 4 / Anthony Chiarella
"It figures that these Brooklyn-made phones would kick some serious butt. These babies have a pretty big sound; a powerful, tight bottom end, very articulate midrange, and a good top end. They have an airy, open quality-less in your head then most phones near their price."
Audio Video / Vol. 1, No. 4 / Steve Guttenberg
"If you are looking for a headphone to use as a reference, you may want to go up the line. To me, the SR80 is the price-performance winner."
