June 22, 200818 yr I'm wondering if i should look up this deal Grado sr60 / sr80 headphones for ipod zune audiophile mp3 music player, and what i might look for to find out which Grado they are. It's been 3 years since i last heard and SR60, so it's not like i would be able to immediately compare.
June 23, 200818 yr without the button, they look identical. lucky for you, with the same pads, they are identical. hehe
June 23, 200818 yr Small jack = 60, large jack = 80 non? That's a good way of telling, assuming they weren't recabled. Looks like an SR-60 from the photo.
June 23, 200818 yr the SR-80s i owned had a mini plug, just like the SR-60s (i'm serious, they are the same phones). Weird...all the SR-80s I have seen had a 1/4" connector.
June 23, 200818 yr Grado doesn't seem to agree with you. maybe they've changed over the years, i don't know. Weird. My friend has and SR-80 with a 1/4" connector and his headphones are at least eight or nine years old. Same termination with the SR-80 I auditioned in the store around that time.
June 23, 200818 yr they must have changed them, then. the SR-80 might have used to have been a slightly different headphone, but the current really is just a pair of SR-60s with a different button and different pads. the website suggests that the SR-80 has an upgraded 4 conductor cable, compared to the SR-60, but the two SR-60s i've recabled have had the same 4 conductor cable as the SR-80, so i really think they are identical phones, at least with the current models. Yeah not surprising about the cable. They're so cheap Grado probably just puts whatever on the SR-60.
June 23, 200818 yr From what ive read online these incredible audiophile headphones, with crystal clear and acurate sound. I like that they weren't actually listened to.
