The story of the SR80x holds a special place in not only our ears, but the ears of hundreds of thousands of listeners. The first pair was built in 1991 and we wouldn’t be here today without it. With its soundstage, world renowned mid-range, and speed, the SR80x is worthy of being the longest running Grado headphone.
These are my first open back headphones and I’m very happy with them. The wide soundstage is great for movies in particular, imo. They make high quality orchestral soundtracks sound really cool, each instrument section is very distinct from each other, as well as the dialogue. My only complaint is that the ear cups can be uncomfortable after long periods of use because of my glasses. But it’s not too bad, so I’m sticking with 5 stars. I’m very happy to support a family owned business that makes a great and affordable product.

Great sound !
There isn't a day that goes by that I don't have these on. Whether I'm sitting at the computer or riding my bike trainer in the basement. They're oblivious to sweat performance wise and the cushions can be cleaned easily. I now have two pair, that's how great these are. Did I mention American made also? Gotta love them.

A shadow of its former self.
I retired my 26 year old Grado SR60, and bought the SR80. What happened? AM radio quality highs, no bass…awful.
