What is the difference between Grado SR60e and SR80e?
The Grado SR60 and SR80e are nearly the same headphone with the exception of sound. The SR60e is a headphone with a well rounded bass that makes for fun, grungy rock and roll listening. And the SR80e is a headphone that simply chooses to be a little more flat and true to the mix bringing out the best of the mid-range.

Overall, the Grado SR80e feels lightweight and is comfortable. It is not exactly portable despite the rotatable ear cups due to the long and thick cable. The fragile foam ear pads also make me feel unsafe to chug the headphones in my bag. However, the headphones did a good job of staying put and it cradled my ear well.

One thing I have done recently is got an Apogee Duet (which I am very happy with and will be doing the comparison with) and some SR325i’s. These 325i’s currently have about 100hours burn-in on them. I’d image the SR80’s have at least 250 hours. Before buying the SR325i’s I’d read quite a lot about them here on head-fi.
Which is better the sr80 or the 325?
The bass on the 325s is also much stronger and fuller, and sounds less clinical than the SR80s, which seem to be very accurate in the bass department, where the 325s are smoother and fuller. I have not decided if i prefer the accurate but maybe slightly sterile sound of the SR80’s bass, or the 325’s more musical sounding bass.
