Grado SR125x Open Back Headphones: 2021 Updated, Made in USA Headphone (SR 125x)

The Grado SR125x utilizes its quick driver to keep up with any music it plays while also being affordable. The clarity and range of Grado headphones can reveal new notes and details in songs heard hundreds of times. The driver and housing working in tandem react to sound vibrations and virtually eliminate transient distortions. With harmonic colors, full bodied vocals, excellent dynamics, and a world renowned mid-range, the SR125x produces a sound that’s pure Grado.

Fourth Generation Grado drivers are here. Specifically tuned for the SR125x, this new speaker design features a more powerful magnetic circuit, a voice coil with decreased effective mass, and a reconfigured diaphragm. Reengineering these components for our 44mm drivers improve efficiency, reduces distortion, and preserves the harmonic integrity of your music.

Along with the speakers, the cables and headband have been redesigned for the SR125x. Now housed in a more durable braided sheathing, the 8-conductor cable transfers more information and features a super annealed copper wire for improved purity of the audio signal. The new headband features more padding for a more comfortable experience.

Each SR125x 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 SR125x.
