Grado SR80 Classic

The SR80 builds on the foundation of the Classic Series by introducing greater energy and refinement over the entry model. With the addition of the X2 Series driver, it delivers improved balance, tighter bass response, and more extended high-frequency detail.

Compared to the SR60, the presentation is more forward and engaging, with increased immediacy and presence. It retains the open, lively character of the Classic Series while offering a noticeable step up in clarity and control.

It represents a key transition point in the range, where the full character of the Grado sound begins to emerge.

Each SR80 is hand-built by our team in Brooklyn. This headphone goes from workbench to workbench until it’s ready for your ears. We started building on a kitchen table in 1953, and every experience since then has led to the creation of the SR80 Classic Series Headphone.
