At the top of the Grado line, the RS1 escort you right into the middle of the musical presentation. Instead of being in the the room with the music, you're onstage with the band. Their dynamic presentation hits you hard and leaves you running to catch up. They deliver detailed highs and mids, along with tight bass. They are moderately comfortable, but for a more comfy fit you can bend the glove leather-covered headband. We should add that although the RS1 are the best headphones on the market for use directly out of a portable, for a more stunning musical ride you should use an amp. Less

The 225s Rock!

byTodd Sep 21, 1999
19 Helpfuls 20 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros Great live sound
Cons comfort
Recommended it? Yes

The Grado SR225 is my personal favorite in the Grado line of fine headphones. These cans really rock. Great bass, liquid mids and fairly detailed highs are the characteristics of the 225s. Their ability to deliver the impact of the music is unrivaled - you will feel the punch of the kick drum as if... Read full review »

Your Ears Still Have Not Experienced True Joy

Pros Awesome clarity, tight bass, reveals depth to music you've never heard before.
Cons I tend to rub them all over my body, grunting and gyrating.

I had long pondered the idea of purchasing a new pair of headphones (or for the hip among us - "cans") since I figured among the price difference between my fifty dollar Sony pair and the high-priced headhuggers of such companies as AKG, Sennheiser, and of course, Grado.

As I continued to... Read full review »

Recommended it? Yes

Before purchasing these headphones a number of months ago, I had been using the Grado SR-125s, and I had been blown away by their sound each and every time I heard them since I bought them a little more than 6 months before that.

But let me take a step back and explain to you how and why... Read full review »

Neither would I."
