I got the 80’s, put them on a friend’s head, and now he has the 80’s.
Just bought my own because of this video.
I found a record store that had the sr60's, and 80's on display. I can't wait to purchase the sr80's. Great bass, and very tight. for $100, i'm gonna say that's a deal.
I hope you'll get your headphones back some day
I bought a set of 80's nearly 20 years ago after trying everything they had in the store. A bit of extra twinkle in the high end but the cleanest sound overall. Still my go-to set after all these years. Comfortable enough to wear all day.
Just bought a pair of Hemphones myself, and my god I love them. I already own 325is Grados from 8 years ago so I knew what I was getting into, but the difference the wood housing makes, hemp specifically is just magical. I'm almost crazy enough to someday try and get PS2000e for the best of their lineup. But that's a huge leap and way more power from a headphone then I should ever need. That said, I'm going to try and get two of my music lover coworkers directed towards Grados, as music majors, they need these in their life.
Me listening to the audio comparisons through an iPhone speaker:
Hmm yes
one of the mono ones?
@@arandomguy4478 yeah I think
coolin with stereo on this 11

Here we go, it’s the DankPods asterisk signal path:
audio >>> headphones >>> miniDSP >>> adobe (w/ compression) >>> youtube (w/ compression) >>> [add your audio device]
Went to their buy page and I see they've put this video as part of their advertising and reviews. That's a badge of honor

Yea how we get 2 videos
yea lol
I swear I thought the same thing early in the morning
Same
Blesses
I bought these after watching this video. And now use them for gaming. It's absolutely an amazing experience to play games with that "sound stage" like, hmm footsteps twelve meter to my right?
fmod moment
I have to say, I love DankPods technology reviews. Headphones may seem like such a simple technology, yet they are so nuanced and complex.
Example: Sound frequency profile, noise cancelling, bass reflex, microphones etc...
Oh man, imagine horror games/movies with those on... that's BEGGING anxiety to attack.
@@Anino_Makata dude it is I played through last of Us 2 with the sr60s on the whole time it made it creepy as hell
I wanna play thief with these
As soon as you said "no, these live hung up in my room so I can grab them easily" my eyebrows went up.
It's like when Yahtzee Crowshaw said the Nintendo Switch is the system he keeps in his living room to play games to relax
a lot of people don't understand the importance of a daily driver, that one line sold me on them and I'm going to get them asap
@@walesjedi9217 Trueee
That's one of the highest level of praises any product can get from an enthusiast. Sometimes it's not about what scored or rated the highest. Sometimes it, "What does that person actually use day to day?" The fact that he has access to headphones over 10x the price of these and still uses them speaks volumes, no pun intended.
@@jakitron890 that take is so freaking hot coming from Yahtzee that it burned my eyebrows off

I bought the SR80's 20 years ago and would totally buy them again.
Wait, as in you're still running the same pair? That's nice. Like sure I used my Sessions MH510's for almost 6 years, but there's a bit of a jump from 6 years to 20
@@MudakTheMultiplier Closer to 6 or 7, I concentrated on closed-backs after that for use at work, but now that I've been spending more time at home I would buy the same ones again.
I've had my SR60i for 10 years now and has been a daily all its life. And they're not "babied" at all.
I did a bass mod a year into owning it. Then I replaced the cable for a shorter one for practicality. Then I had to re-solder the cable a year after that because my sister who I pass it on to treated it like a disposable. Then I replaced the cable again for one with an L-plug a few years later. The headphone survived all that stuffing into cramped luggage, tropical weather, and heat from soldering and shell removal. I think it'll outlive me.
Had a pair of grado 125’s for years. Bought from eBay. And love them.
I've had my 80s for over 15 years and still love them.
I showed this video to my dad who has grados, and he said he was friends with the late founder, and he has been using them since the beginning.
@? Im happy with Sr125x . They are incredible.
@? I see some forum people said it sound Similar to sennheiser HD650. I dont know how the HD600 sound. I have the Fidelio X2hr and shp9500. Grado are very sharp and picky about song to play. When the headphone agrer with song they sound amazing
@? the grado sound good almost all genre even nowadays pop is sound decent especially Doja cat/SZA - Kiss me more. I dont like pop but grado make them sound better
you from jersey? my uncle knows John grado pretty well. trying to figure out if we're related lol
Just bought the 80s because of this vid, and then immediately bought the 60s for my bro for his birthday
Murr Birthmus to him 🎈
Are you enjoying them as much as expected?
So update, I just bought the SR80's and they are absolutely incredible. Paid £50 English crowns for them and couldn't be happier

This is the content I'm subbed for.
I'm not even an audiophile but I really appreciate how you approach this sort of stuff. It's great to see such enthusiastic support for localised companies (I'm not even American, but I mean made in house kinda shit). I'm so tired of big brands- and even some small companies- shipping everything off to places like China for exploited labour just to save themselves some money. Especially when those savings are rarely passed to the consumer. I'm always down for supporting companies like Grado, where they seem to be making smart money saving decisions to help keep their costs reasonable. Wish I could get a pair of these, honestly, they remind me of old 1930s microphones. Look vintage as fuck.
Too bad they’re almost impossible to get now since this video, like I see them go for a grand sometimes on eBay, it’s like vinyl where once something that was once ‘cheap’ is now heavily sought out by people
@@thedoctor8527 I'd say that's a good thing for the company though. It means they're producing a good product that people want. Sucks that limited stock means their items are harder to come by, but they can only make what they're capable of. I still think it's the better option than exploiting workers in other countries. Maybe the increased buyers means they might be able to expand a little and produce more stock in the future.
I've just seen a bunch of grados on amazon not far above stock price, so they don't seem too badly priced still.
I come from the future with good news. Grado has the new SR60x (about $20 more) in stock. Have a look!
@@heavyhauler426 Thank you, kind time traveller.
@@heavyhauler426 I got the sr125x
I bought the 80s and watched the 4K blu-ray of Predator with it’s original stereo mix and it was a life changing experience, it was like Jesse Ventura was in the room with me.

Me after seeing dankpods post:
Ill watch that later
Me after seeing grados in the thumbnail:
*Im speed*
My stepdad and I are paramedics. He was one long before me, and all the 1970's sirens have kind of destroyed his hearing - particularly higher end. But he's always been just super into music. Absolutely loves it, will just sit there with his apple dirty buds and listen to albums. And when he visited me this last month, I put the grado sr80x's on his head.
Hardest man in the world and he nearly cried. That piercingly sparkly high end suddenly brought out parts of music he flat out couldn't hear anymore, and hadn't for years.
So of course I gave them to him. Dank made me such a grado convert that I now have 125e's and OG 225's, and a pair of custom built gs3000e's (earphonediylabs, fully custom built set with detachable mmcx cables, $220 all in for an $1800 pair of cans. Deal of the damn century)
Wife and I use the 225/125's exactly how he described when we're traveling. Splitter coming out of the laptop. Movies sound amazing.
God bless grado, seriously. And thanks to Wade here for turning me onto them.
You know at 2008 when i went to college i need a “mobile” headphone and bought an iGrado (i think it’s 49$) without knowing what is GRADO. Best decision of my life.
Yea, they look super cheap, but they sound SOO good.
I bought igrado 1.5 years ago for about $30. Some kind of discounted old stock since they are discontinued.
Immediately bought 2 spare pairs after testing them. Still using the very first pair.
I also used 2500 grit sandpaper on them to make them matte :D
I had those for my birthday around that time. They sounded amazing for the price, but the cable was too weak for me so it ended up breaking after around 6 months. Feels bad man
@@Nettacki I think if you send them back Grado will repair the cable. If you still have them.
@@chethammer really hope its going to stay that way forever because I'm the kind of guy who breaks everything he owns and I bought the Hemp... love them so muvh I want to keep them forever
From memory the IGrados are Chinese..
They experimented with making headphones not based on their normal design in China but I don't know how many they do like that now..
Their normal ones are made in the US with differences in cables, materials, wiring etc.. Making the difference between models...
But the same basic design apllys to all..

This comment kinda scared me, like how does this guy know my name? And how does he know that Aussie Audiophiles are the best audiophiles? Then I read your user name, and my confusion died down.
I've learned to expect opposites with this channel, start with how bad something is and you were surprised with how good they were, start with glowing expectations and the rest of the video is laughing at how terrible they preformed
started watching your channel like a year ago and now I am coming back to this video listening with my new Grado sr80x's. love them.
"you'll need to take this with So many grains of salt you'll get sodium poisoning" is going to be my new jab in online arguments. Thanks Danks!

If I just hadn't purchased a pair of MDR-7506s I'd probably look at a pair of the Grados as well. I had a rep from one of the best car care products tell me they never advertise their products because the quality speaks for itself and I definitely get that vibe from Grado.
I joined the bandwagon, just tried them out, love'em!! They seem comfortable at the mo, and the bass is fine by me (not head shaking, but defined). Got them secondhand from a guy that said they were uncomfortable, I didn't ask if he'd looked for replacement pads or tried bending the headband slightly :s
The bastards are out of stock, now I want to get them even more.
I just got a used good condition S80 and it's only $40 more than the S60s so i was like yeah gimme
Buy headphones off eBay man they’re so cheap. A little alcohol wipe down, maybe some new ear pads, and you’d never know they’re 10 years old.

the instant you said that the high ends sound exposed i instantly got interested, i would love to hear what dci shows sound like; especially the older shows with the soprano g bugles
I think one of the reasons Grados sound so good is because of that heightened treble. It really helps sell the older audiophiles!
“Babe wake up, Dank Pods uploaded again”
ngl, I bought my SR80e coz I remember watching a videos where you said that they're like 80% of the sound quality of the SR325e (which you said you use most often for casual listening), but for a lot less money, and I wanted a good pair of open backs to listen to FLACs and watch movies. I fucking love em to bits now and they're the only expensive purchase I haven't grown to regret. So you can imagine the pikachu shock face I pulled when I saw the SR60e (which aren't too different from the 80s) in the thumbnail and the part of the title said "worst headphones ever". I was ready to create a petition to nuke Australia for harbouring the man that made me a grados fan boy and then spat on my face for becoming one. Thankfully, you were just professing your love for em, so Australia lives to fight another day.
Honestly from this vids title and the Hemphones, I was expecting him to shat on Grado headsets and would have hated this channel from then on. I've come to love Grado headsets after buying SR325is 8 years ago before they transitioned everything to an E on their wiring (was I or IS). Now with my own pair of hemphones after looking at reviews, I fell in love with Grado designs all over again. I'd like to get my hands on higher end sets like the PS500e or one of their reference series GS1000 (or one of the lower models for pricing). That said, I know Senheisser, AKG, etc makes really good headphones, I'm just enjoying what Grado has created thus far.
@@roberthiggins4186 I think the guy's too entertaining to hate to be honest, so I wouldn't have actually held it against him. I just thought that if he had actually made a video shitting on Grados, It would have been super out of character, but I still would have expected a reasonable explanation since he's generally really positive and optimistic about headphones (even mediocre ones - not to say he doesn't label them as mediocre in the end) and explains his conclusion pretty well.
My only gripe with the Grados is the foam. Yeah, I get it shapes the sound and gets the speakers close to your ears without too much obstruction, but I really wish I could use the grados without needing a break after 2 hours of so of enduring that itchy feeling the foam gives my ears. I heard the foam gets more comfortable with use, is that true?
@@rayaxe6347 Quick question, I'm interested in them being my first better quality headphones and I'm a total noob. Do you use any DAC with em or could you tell me if you should?
@@WilczukPL saying that they are 32Ω they should be able to run well out of anything with a 3.5mm jack
@@WilczukPL Sorry for the late reply - what Liam said. You can use them without a DAC or AMP. I often use them on my phones with a USB C to 3.5mm Jack adaptor.

*Grado after this video*
**STONKS**
I just bought a pair of sr80e’s and when I saw this my stomach dropped. I thought he was going to say something that would make me regret my purchase. I couldn’t have been more pleasantly surprised.
Got a pair of sr60es last week mostly cause you mentioned them and I love em so much. It's insane listening to songs I've heard thousands of times and hearing parts that I have never heard before.
I kind of really want to try these now because of the video and I love the way that you make these videos by the way and it's just dug to see another nerd geek out too lol
And..... that's the price and the stock of Grado SR60 just rised insanely.
They're really pricey to buy online if you're not in the US but if you can find a local retailer it will be fine. Made the mistake to buy them online immediatly after the video for 259$ CA including shipping while some local stores have them for 100$. I fucking love them tho. I'm surprised how contreversial Grado is in audiophile forums
@@magusperde365 Thanks for the review of it.
@@magusperde365 where did you find your retailer? I'm from Mexico and bc of this video I also want to buy them lol
@ there was a website called gradocanada that listed all the local retailers. I can't seems to find the equivalent for mexico but maybe your google algorythm will have more luck than me. It also seems that their online seller, 4ourears, has a mexican version so maybe buying online in mexico is not that bad ? You should still check it out.
Are they publicly traded? I thought they were a private family business.
DankPods: the worst best headphones
Me: *visible confusion*
I have watched all your videos out of my phone speakers so now I gotta rewatch them once my new headphones come in the mail lol
I found my Dad’s adc sound shaper MK 2 and watching this when you said about watching movies I knew what you were going to say. Tinkering with the eq in real time on video games in real time and getting that “sparkly sound” is unreal you still get the punch from the bass get the mids then you get this clear vocals, clear steps little noises that you didn’t know existed. So I’m defiantly going to get a pair
I love how he can speak with his hands and de random zooms
DankPods uploads twice at a time so that we have a review to listen to with each ear.
SR80s were my first not-shitty headphones that I bought, since I genuinely wasn’t sure if I would be able to really hear a difference (my eardrums have been damaged) and they weren’t hideously expensive.
Oh, I heard a difference, they were amazing. That began my odyssey into nice audio equipment.
first 'highend' always special, better to pick wisely really
I got my HyperX Cloud 2's for gaming, and the Grado's for music listening.
I'm just down right amazed by the value these two headphones represents.
The Grado's are only for home use, but I work a lot from home - so they are ideal for use while I work. So much Detail!
I love Symphonic and Powermetal, not to mention orchestral music - anything John Williams has made, is audio gold with these.
i gotta say, i subscribed on a whim a while ago, i never expected this good of content to come consistently. good job dog lol you got good ideas.
Cheers Isaak!
I got the SR80e's after you mentioned these a while ago, mainly for watching films late at night. Very happy!

@@cj123485 it was the video where he was talking about beginner audiophile gear I’ll find it real quick. Found it! It is “Make your phone sound amazing!” It’s my favorite video tbh. He teaches you about DACS and some headphones at different price points. I bought some sr60s because of that video

Yes
Grados are also insanely easy to mod and customize to your liking. I've been running a pair of custom SR80s with macassar ebony cans handmade by a headfi forum member and a cable I braided myself for years, repairing them whenever I need to, and I *love* the sound. I have more than a few pairs of headphones (my second favourite being my AKG K7XXs) but I still keep plugging my Grados into my tube amp (or my phone). I have a box of spare SR80 parts from a friend whose SR80s died and didn't want to repair them, so I'mma build another set at some point haha.
Dankpods: double uploads
Everyone: impossible.
My "go-to" headphones since about 1989 have been Sony MDR-V6. I have had many other headphones as well, but something about the way the MDR-V6's sound appeal to me.
I have noticed things in older recordings that I have not heard with other headphones, such as tape warble that happened during the live recording that ended up on the original vinyl press and subsequent CD's. Other sounds from the studio sessions herd that the artist probably didn't want in the recording as well. I actually enjoy hearing those mistakes.
I decided to pick up a pair of the Grado SR60e and have been using them for about a week. I think this may be my new "go-to" headphones. I hear those same "mistakes" with the Grado's where other headphones boost the base or have other electronics that mask what the true recoding has.
The only negative I have with the Grado so far is the foam earpad and the sharp edge of the headphone on the part of the headphone near the earpad. I wish the earpad was a little softer perhaps a different material over the foam.
It is getting harder to hear the "pure" sounds since I have been getting older. I have listed to music thru headphones for so many years louder than I should have and it has taken a toll on my hearing.
Change the pads to G or L pads they immediately change the sound and make it immediately sound better, but because the drivers are further from your ear, you definitely need an amp to give them the same sound output(will also increase the quality further)
First off, LOVE your series mate. I hurt from laughing so much. Top shelf vids!
Grado was actually known for making turntable cartridges before they made their foray into headphones. Since you're a vinyl enthusiast, perhaps a possible future vid idea would be to buy a Grado stylus cartridge and report back on how it sounds? Just think of it as "Loving the Villain, Part 2"
Cheers from Canada, Wade. Keep up the awesome work!
Listening on my SR325is, plugged directly into my MB Air. Most 3.5mm sockets don't have enough power to drive my Grados properly. The stock headband was painfully uncomfortable, bought a custom upgrade. I had an issue with the cable that didn't come to light until I bought a proper headphone amp.
I was well out of warranty by then, whoever handles things for Grado in the UK weren't interested. I contacted the original seller, who's in the US, who contacted John Grado personally. I paid shipping to get the headphones from UK to New York, Grado replaced the cable, free of charge, and Grado paid for return shipping. Outstanding customer service.
3 whole vids today? Damn, I am blessed
I really appreciate that you play the drum set, and that you play the ultimate form of drumming....jazz
I've been using the sr60i from 2014 and recently modded them to a single cable to wear around. Main at home is a 58x but honestly not much of a difference between the two. Love the vid, and when i paired my grados with an amp for the first time, I was just blown away!
This is freaking great, that recommendation at the end, I'm a huge film nerd, LOVE a good sounding movie. May need to pick these up for when I'm doing binges.
*Shows the rack of the gods*

You've made me so curious to get these! Also thank you for the Frank clips I love you Frank!
My wife and I got each other the 80's and a headphone splitter for Xmas and I can't wait to watch things together, it genuinely has helped us become even closer, thank you Dank

"The Great Alps of Audio" *sings amazing song*
omg why is that so funny
I unironically love Grado's for gaming. I can hear steps in Valorant so clearly.
i just watched this review and my first thought was 'these sound great for gaming.' just get an antlion mod mic and boom, best 'gaming headset' ever. they would live up the the classic 'competitive edge' all these daft gaming headset companies say.
Yep the multiple videos where dank gives these headphones a glorious review convinced me to purchase some and give them a whirl
Thanks for uploading two videos this week! Definitely needed them!
When he was describing the really bad low end headphones , I thought he was talking about raycons
I bought a pair of sr80s for work to replace my dead-yet-beloved folding Sennheisers. I honestly love how absurdly open they are because it encourages me to lower the volume a little bit and yes, I can hear you trying to get my attention through them.
What a unique way to make this kind of videos, good job man.
You’ve turned me into an audiophile, I originally want to save up for Meza 90 classic, but GOD I want experience the grado’s so I caved and got the SR 80 as I think that’d be the highest I’d get money wise. (for a reference point for about 2 years have been using dry “gaming” headphones(literally no bass, or high end), and some Bose wireless headphones (the wires for it takes a balance output and I can’t find a good pair of the wires for the life of me))
Also I LOVE your channel, I always eagerly wait for the next week to roll around for what you have in store for the next vid and I’ve repeatedly watched all your videos till the end several times! Can’t wait to see what audio related thing you do next man!
it's 4am in the morning, I haven't got any sleep and I just want to make sure if I'm seeing it right
double dankpods upload?!!?!
As opposed to 4 am at night?
Have had My Grado 60's for 15 plus years. Absolutely love them as well. It's great when you buy something and it exceeds your expectations by a long shot! This the Dankman's videos make are so full of information but so damn funny! Love this guy!
I was looking for headphones (that weren’t cheap crap) since I make music and listen to music, and I was set on getting some sennheisers or something like that, but then you came out with this video. I went and got the Grado sr80e’s and I love them. My only real issue is how my right ear starts to hurt a lot after long listening sessions so I will need to fix that little problem, but otherwise your statement “They sang to me” is accurate to me too. Right now I am looking at getting some Meze 99s since I tried them at the place I got them and they sounded very nice too. Thanks for introducing me to this wonderful world of headphones.
''so many grains of salt you'll get sodium poisoning'' instant sub! love this dude.

Double upload? Pog

I've been looking at these headphones for a while now (it was between the AT-M40xs and the Grados) and this video made me pull the trigger and buy the SR-80es. The M40xs are my only set of over-ear headphones so I am extremely excited to have something so different! THANK YOU YOUR ROYAL DANKNESS
After you Raycon video, I felt like such a sucker for buying them that I had to redeem myself by buying myself a pair of these Grado's!!! Loving them so far and all thanks to you!
literally your videos are what I'm using for breaks in my study. Love ya dude!
ha literally doing that rn too
me too
Finally got a pair after watching this video (the SR80's) and this video almost doesn't do them justice. It's amazing how much detail you can hear. Every instrument, every breath, every movement of the fingers along the frets, YOU CAN HEAR IT ALL. It's honestly transformed the way I listen to music and I dont think I can go back.
welcome, yeah they are and yeah you cant
I decided to get these as my first set of personal headphones after watching your videos. I'm absolutely delighted-- i'm an earbuds person usually because headphones have made make my head hurt in the past, but these are so seamless and amazing!
Excellent, dude! Quite entertaining and accurate. I have two pairs of SR60’s from 1990 or so, love ‘em.
Mate. Are they any good for someone (me) with one ear? Can they be “mono’d” ? What is the best way to do this? Love your channel.
Most phones have a mono setting in the acessability options
Windows also has an option for mono audio
Hey mate, so unfortunately soundstaging is more or less a strictly stereo experience. But with the bad news out of the way, any set of headphones driven by a mono device, be it a phone, computer, or DAC can still sound beautiful. The high-ends and sound signature on these bad boys would still be just as sparkly.
“and this was recorded by me; an idiot”😂
Bought the 60's a couple of weeks ago, and they are fantastic! While playing PS4 I sometimes forget they are on my head, as the sound is so immersive. Great buy, thanks for the recommendation, Dank!
1:10 holy crap they'll hear all the high pitched anime girls I'm listening to
This has to be the fastest growing channel on RUclips, it’s amazing
I just got a pair of SR60's recently because of this review, and damn, they're pretty amazing.
What really surprised me isn't that Alive 2007 feels so lively or that Gorillaz sound slappier than usual, but that 16-bit music just sounds so amazingly crisp. It almost feels I'm experiencing Chrono Trigger's soundtrack for the first time again.
Congrats mate, you got me to do an express visit to the Hi-Fi store to grab the Prestige SR 80x's on the way home from work today. Absolutely breathtaking for content consumption, just like you promised!
ordered these yesterday, hoping its just like you describe. trusting you man!
Whatever did we do to deserve doubledank? Love the vids as always!
2 vids this is what I needed after a hard week of school
Me too
Great, great, GREAT review! I love my 325's!! I have owned them for over 15 years. When is the last time you could say that about an audio product?
I was not expecting that price tag. Pretty cool!
