What
does the e stand for in the new SR225e from Grado? Improved, that’s
what! Features are the same as the SR125e, new driver, cable and housing
designs, but this headphone has an increased rear air flow, utilizes
Grado’s larger ear cushion and has closer matched drivers. Air flow is
increased by 50% which is achieved through an improved rear metal
screen. The use of closer matched drivers and the larger cushions
results in an enlarged soundstage, while the improved rear screen frees
the headphone from colorations.
HI-FI Choice
"Music flows through this headphone organically and believably,
with irrepressible dynamics and bounce." |

HI-FI Choice Recommended |
"Sounding very good at both low and high levels, these
headphones are of reference quality both for the classical
virtues of neutral frequency response and low coloration, as
well as for their clarity and the high degree of listener
involvement envoked."
HI-FI News & Record Review / Martin Colloms |
"The SR225e's 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."
WHAT Hi-Fi |
"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!"
