Apogee GROOVE + Grado SR325E

The Grado SR325e Prestige Series on-ear headphones were engineered for outstanding sound performance. These sleek, retro aluminum headphones feature improved driver and cable designs which produce the kind of high impact sound that Grado is known for. An added benefit of the metal housing of the Grado SR325e headphones is that the added mass minimizes all unwanted transient distortions. The vented earcup design of the SR325e's provides powerful, extended low frequency response and an incredibly spacious soundstage. Internally, the aluminum air chambers, ultra-high purity copper voice coil and hybrid metal/plastic enclosures produce extremely clear, detailed highs. Further complementing Grado's world renowned midrange sound is the new 8 conductor cable designed to give greater control and stability of the upper and lower range of the frequency spectrum.

Every pair of Grado SR325e headphones are built in Brooklyn, New York and feature over-sized plush ear cushions which increase airflow through the improved rear metal screens, further improving the soundstage.The genuine top-grain leather padded head-strap is Brylcreem resistant and fully adjustable for a customized, comfortable fit. The SR325e will produce a sound that is pure Grado, with warm harmonic colors, rich full bodied vocals, excellent dynamics, and an ultra-smooth top end.
