Old Grado SR 325e Information Below
Delivering characteristic Grado clarity, energy, and immediacy, the Grado Labs SR325e are lightweight 'on-ear' headphones that will lift you up out of your seat and plant you onstage within the circle of players.
The SR-325e look may be old-school, but the audio performance of these open-back cans is right up to date for listeners seeking a modern audiophile headphone with a brightly present, intensely clear tone. Fabulous synergy with smartphones and tablets.
Regularly rated by a top consumer magazine as the best headphones available, the Grado SR325e is perched at the top of the Grado 'Prestige Series'. The SR325e have a very lively presentation with bright highs and focused vocal midranges riding above a cleanly punchy bass response that offers improved low-end texture versus the original SR325 edition.
The uppermost highs remain extremely finely detailed, which many critical listeners find very musically revealing, if not somewhat forward. Overall, the SR-325e delivers an intricate and dynamic musical presentation that can sometimes veer towards slightly peaky with overly edgy recordings or poor audio sources. So uncompressed or 'lossless' music is definitely a critical key for the best, smoothest sound performance.
The Grado SR 325e are easily driven by smartphones, tablets or laptop computers. If you enjoy the thoroughly galvanizing presentation of Grado's signature 'front row' sound, the SR325e's headphone will offer a brilliant extension of the immersive, exciting musicality on which they've built their well-earned reputation.
The boss aluminum outer grill design on the Grado SR325e earcups is unique to this model and offers some added bling factor. The SR-325e construction is well-engineered with the element drivers matched to .05dB and voice coils made of Grado's proprietary ultra-high purity, long-crystal oxygen-free copper wiring. This recent 'e' update improves the element material quality and a better cord design with sturdier driver housing, resulting in the best audio performance yet for the long-running SR325 model series.
The SR325e continue Grado's venerable tradition of made-in-the-USA quality. The headphones utilize their traditional flexible headband and metal height adjusters connecting the SR325e's shiny aluminum silver earcups to the headband, which allows for up & down sizing adjustment plus full 360 degree earpiece rotation. This feature is ideal for laying the headphones down flat or for storage & traveling.
The upgraded SR-325e headphone cord is a straight but fairly short 6.5-ft length, attaches to both earcups in a 'Y' design, and is made of Grado's own excellent high-definition 'Prestige' proprietary copper audio cabling. The cord is terminated to a 1/8" [3.5 mm] 'mini' plug and includes a large 1/4" stereo plug adapter.

When Taron and Andrew Lissimore started headphones.com, they wanted to create the headphone store they wished existed. As headphone enthusiasts, they wanted a store with 365-day returns.
So they decided they were going to try to make 365-day returns work - no matter how ridiculous it sounded to their wives.
Years later, they're still doing it, and their wives still think they're crazy.
So take some time to get to know your new gear. We want you to enjoy your purchase for years, not just a few weeks. If you're not satisfied, you can return items in like-new condition for up to 365-days.

Return Policy Abuse
In order to provide a 365-day return policy, we need to take abuse seriously.
We monitor a buyers ratio of purchased to returned products. If it exceeds an internal threshold they will no longer be allowed to place orders with Headphones.com. This includes customers who spread returns across multiple accounts.
We made our return policy to help you find gear you feel great about for a long time. Most people use it exactly as intended. We don't want the handful of people who attempt to abuse our policy to ruin it for everyone else.
Cryptocurrency Refunds
If you paid with a cryptocurrency, the returned amount will be equal to the USD equivalent of your payment on CoinGecko.com at the time the refund is processed. The return will be made in the currency of your original order.
After You've Made a Return
Inspection
Each return is inspected at our warehouse. During busy times these inspections may take a few extra days.
Refund or Credit
We will notify you by email when your refund or credit has been processed. It may take a few business days for a refund to appear in your account. This is determined by your financial institution.
If you still have questions, please email info@headphones.com and an advisor will be happy to help.
One of the key things we pride ourselves on is our customer service and one of the most important aspects of our customer service is getting you your product on time! But not only do we want to get it to you on time, we want to make sure we are using a reliable courier so the experience for you is the best possible. That is why we ship all of our orders with FedEX.
While couriers like USPS are tempting because of their low cost, we have found that they are not a good experience for our customers. Nobody wants their package to not be delivered and then have to spend an hour on hold with the local post office trying to get information. To that end, all of our packages are shipped signature required with FedEX to make sure your package arrives in your hands safe and sound and if there are any issues, your time isn't wasted.
However, if you are looking to ship to PO Box or APO address, we can definitely accommodate your shipping needs!

How Soon Will My Order Ship
