Description
X Series Driver
4th Generation Grado drivers,specifically tuned for the SR80x, this new speaker design features a more powerful magnetic circuit, a voice coil with decreased effective mass, and a reconfigured diaphragm. Grado reengineered these components for the new 44mm drivers giving improved efficiency, reduces distortion, and preserves the harmonic integrity of the music.
New Cables & Headband
Along with the speakers, the cables and headband have been redesigned for the SR80x. Now housed in a more durable exterior, the 4-conductor cable features a super annealed copper wire for improved purity of the audio signal. The new headband features more cushion for a comfier experience. Each SR80x is hand-built in Brooklyn, USA.
“At this money, the SR80 model remains the finest in the market, and such is their dominance in this niche that we wouldn’t be surprised if this were true for as long as wired headphones have their place in this world.”
