Grado SR60 Classic Series Open-Back On-Ear Headphones with 44mm X2 Drivers and S Cushions (Black)
The Grado SR60 Classic represents the most direct, celebrated gateway into high-fidelity open-back personal audio. For over three decades, this iconic, family-owned headphone platform has been meticulously refined to offer an uncompromised, purist listening experience at an approachable price point. Eschewing flashy digital features and processing in favor of absolute sonic honesty, the SR60 Classic is hand-assembled by master builders in Brooklyn, New York, to deliver a remarkably lively, engaging, and spacious presentation that closed-back models simply cannot replicate.
The 2026 Classic Series iteration raises the bar with Grado's re-engineered 44mm X2 dynamic driver system. This advanced fourth-generation motor design optimizes the copper voice coil, rare-earth magnetic structure, and high-precision Mylar diaphragm for dramatically reduced transient distortion and superior driver matching. Enclosed within a lightweight, ultra-durable die-injection molded housing, the open-air design allows the audio to breathe freely in both directions, eliminating acoustic resonance to reveal breathtaking vocal realism, full-bodied mid-range performance, and a natural, highly immersive soundstage.
