Review on ๐ŸŽง GRADO SR60x Prestige Open-Back Stereo Wired Headphones by Jason Arkin

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Great headphones for semi-critical listening.

SOUND QUALITY: phenomenal. Great resolution, /meh/ soundstage, but for $100 you still get more than what you pay for. Has a "grado sound" of brilliant highs, but I found that after a short break-in period, the highs really lend themselves to critical listening to jazz, pop, vocals, movies, etc. BUILD QUALITY: Predominately plastic and some metal in the headband, but it's not cheap dollar store plastic that creaks in your hands - hard molded plastic that holds together without the weight. The headphone cables are ridiculously clogged, meaning they're probably rock solid. Lost points for not having a detachable cable. NOISE CANCELLATION/BLOCKING: Ha ha, no. WHAT IT IS: Good headphones for the home or (quiet) office, for those who appreciate quality sound at a very impressive price. Did I mention they are made in the USA? WHAT IT IS NOT: Workout headphones or city headphones. They stay connected to the amp or computer and only move when it's time to head out for the day. Buy multiple AirPods Pro headphones to cover the rest of your needs. VALUE: Some of the best bang for your buck.

Pros
  • practical item
Cons
  • not as thick as other picks
