The first big step up from the SR60, the SR125 are great headphones for home use. The Grado name suggests high quality and great sound, and the SR125 are no exception. They produce a detailed musical presentation, showing off good highs and mids, with tight, controlled bass. Their only downfall is that they tend to be a bit uncomfortable, but this can be remedied by bending the headband around. The SR125 can be used with a portable player or with an amp. Less

Introduction

I have long been a fan of headphones. I greatly enjoy listening to music. Sometimes, I need to listen to music. Many times, other people are sleeping or studying when I want to listen to music, so headphones are a must. Like many people, I started off listening to cheap Sony... Read full review »

Cons Construction is a little shabby, some people may have comfort problems with these...
Recommended it? Yes

First off, I want to say that I'm not somebody who just bought these things and am scrambling to write a review about them; I've had these beauties for a while, and I'm finally buckling down to write about them. In fact, I have a pair of RS-1s on order, and will most likely write a review on them... Read full review »

Maxell's NC-II is the budget winner in Noise Canceling headphones.

byopenroad Mar 29, 2005

Pros Cheap, long battery life, decent audio quality, cancels a decent amount of noise.
Cons Artificial bass level, minor complaints with N.C. quality.
Recommended it? Yes

---- Why do I need 'Noise Canceling'? -----

During my last cross-country plane flight I was seated next to a young man wearing what appeared to be large silver earmuffs. At second glance I realized they were actually headphones, as if the large Bose logo on the side wasn't a hint. After... Read full review »

Great headphones, but not comparable to high end models

bydreammaker182 Jun 5, 2005
11 Helpfuls 12 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros Maxell's unit costs less and still are effective for those on a lower budget.
Cons Lower quality noise reduction may not be as attractive to those seeking high end...
Recommended it? Yes

ears. They look and feel solid too. These headphones easily fold for storage. Using a pouch supplied with the headset helps making cord and N.C. on/off slider safer when carrying it around. Noise canceling is good for low pitch noise. I haven't flown in them, but I've worn them in noisy places and... Read full review »
