Grado SR80

Grado Labs, founded in 1953 by Joseph Grado, is a family-owned American company renowned for producing high-quality audio equipment. From its humble beginnings in building hand-built phono cartridges, Grado has become an audio pioneer. It invented the first moving coil stereo phono cartridge and developed the first high-end dynamic headphones. Today, the company continues to operate from its original Brooklyn location while maintaining a legacy of craftsmanship and excellence. Over the decades, Grado has expanded its product line to include a range of headphones and phono cartridges designed with a focus on sound quality and durability. A notable example is the Signature HP100 SE headphones, introduced in 2024 as a tribute to the original HP1 model from the early 1990s. This flagship model combines classic design elements with modern engineering to deliver an exceptional listening experience. Despite changes in the audio industry, Grado remains committed to handcrafting its products in Brooklyn. This allows them to keep that attention to detail that has made them audiophile favorites. The company relies on word-of-mouth among audio enthusiasts rather than mass advertising. With a rich history and a steadfast commitment to excellence, Grado Labs continues to set standards in the world of high-fidelity audio.
