What Hi-Fi? & HiFi Choice Recommended!

Love And Fidelity.

Let your spouse know you honor fidelitygive them a pair of Grado SR225e headphones to enjoy their favorite music the way it was meant to be heard. Grado's traditional open-back design features enhanced airflow through the rear metal grill, and reproduction that is the definition of high fidelity, with crystal clear spatial placement. Allow yourself to experience true intimacy with your favorite artists.

"...What these 'phones do surpassingly well is present each track in its own volume of air so that the character of the voice or instrument is timbrally distinct in the mix. I can almost picture the engineer pushing the fader up to isolate the part I'm focused on. I understand that one part of the Grado magic is building a rigid structure around the dynamic driver to damp resonances." -Listener Magazine, Lang Phipps

This headphone has sizable rear air flow through a metal screen, while utilizing Grado's larger ear cushion and closely matched drivers. The result is a broad soundstage free from colorations. The way the SR225e's new driver, cable and plastic housing move air and react to sound vibrations is virtually unaffected by transient distortions. Bass, midrange and treble are all more wide open and you will enjoy the fine tonal spread and balance. The SR225e will produce a sound that is pure Grado, with warm harmonic colors, rich full bodied vocals, excellent dynamics, and an ultra-smooth top end.

Reviews: (Note: reviews may refer to previous models)
"The results were exceptionally good for sound quality, with a particularly clean, extended bass...I feel that it provides a commensurately standard of music replay and is firmly recommended." -Headstart

"Sounding very good at both low and high levels, these headphones are of reference quality both for the classical virtues of neutral frequency response and low coloration, as well as for their clarity and the high degree of listener involvement evoked." -Martin Colloms, HI-FI News & Record Review

"The SR225s sound unlike any other headphone. They have an amazingly solid presentation, packed with weight and presence. There is also a pleasant richness in the midrange that benefits all types of music." -What Hi-Fi
