Grado Prestige Series SR60x Headphones

Bang for the Buck

The entry-level headphone in the Brooklyn lineup, the SR60x produces the best audio quality at its price point and proves the Grado sound is never out of reach.

Grado has given a significant upgrade to the Prestige Series of open-back headphones, marking a new era in audio excellence. The Prestige X Series builds upon the original models designed by John Grado three decades ago, featuring redesigned drivers, an enhanced cable design, and a more comfortable headband.

As you delve into the entry-level Grado Prestige SR60x headphones, you’ll experience the core performance and design DNA that made the original Grado Prestige range exceptional. Handcrafted in Brooklyn, these headphones feature classic enclosures and boast a new magnetic circuit, voice coil, and diaphragm, reducing distortion and enhancing harmonic integrity. The revamped X Series delivers exceptional audio performance with easier drivability, making it compatible with various portable devices.

Comfort is key, and the SR60x doesn’t disappoint. The open-back design ensures a game-changing experience for those who find traditional headphones uncomfortable. The headband, designed for extended listening sessions, looks like leather but is crafted from a vegan-friendly synthetic protein material. The enhanced cable design adds durability with a deluxe braided finish and a four-strand design made from super-annealed copper wire.

What about the sound? The SR60x offers an unparalleled audio experience, especially considering its price point. With a superb midrange, clear treble, and powerful bass, these headphones excel in shaping music with warm lower notes and a magnificent soundstage. Grado’s upgrade isn’t just cosmetic—it’s an auditory transformation. If you’re an audiophile on a budget, these headphones are a must-have for open-back listening.

Grado’s upgrade to the Prestige SR60x is nothing short of magnificent. These headphones stand out as the best-value pair of open-back headphones under $300, delivering exceptional sound, improved cable design, and enhanced comfort. Whether for yourself or as a gift, the Grado Prestige SR60x offers a non-wireless audio experience that’s simply unparalleled in its class.
