"...sounds like a "big" Grado; awesome resolution of fine musical detail, very clear and neutral."

"those, having heard the Grado one time, will be in no hurry to take them off. Out of this acoustic ear muff comes such a crystal-clear and uncolored sound, that people suddenly will sense all the weak-points of data-compressed music."

"...where they win out over the HD800s is in their sheer transparency and musical realism: their timing and dynamic sweep combine with detail and insight to deliver your music with near-perfect liquidity. Sure the GS1000is are expensive ? they're also extraordinarily good."

"If you audition the Grado RS2s, you may find something you never heard before: the calm artistry of well made sound."

"In a world where predictable, playing-it-safe design is the norm, it's hugely refreshing that a company such as Grado has the cojones to market a pair of cans that look like something Christopher Eccleston might have hanging up in his tardis. We think the 325is look great, in a retro stylee. They sound awesome, too!"

"When it comes to classical music, the Grados reproduce instruments with both believable timbre and solidity. The treble boosts fine detail and no hint of agression. ...these Grados are hard to beat!"

"The SR225s sound unlike any other headphone. They have an amazingly solid presentation, packed with weight and presence. There is also a pleasant richness in the midrange that benefits all types of music."

"We've always had bit of a headphone fettish at What Hi-Fi? We're often talking about how they can create your own private universe, plug directly into your favorite piece of music. Now we've heard the Grado RS1s, and our fettish has become an epic, full blown love affair. Ooooh..."

"A ludicrously pricey pair of headphones but the sound is that good ? really!"

"The GR8s give sensational clarity to vocals and present even the very highest register frequencies with precision and plenty of headroom. Per typical Grado fidelity, rock, pop, and soul tracks are rich with expressiveness and emotion and even classical tracks radiate through the frequency spectrum."

"the GR10s have a larger soundstage and are more sensitive to musical nuance, bringing up more low-end bass tonality, a quicker note attack, an even greater definition... Yes, I would recommend these to a friend."

- Jason Ganz

"Grado is more famed for its traditional, on-ear, hi-fi headphones, but it's a canny company when it comes to portable in-ears too."
