Overview
Grado hand-assembles this headphone in Brooklyn as a wired open-back headphone with large dynamic drivers. Sound passes through the backs of the cups for a wide, airy stage, and a four-conductor cable ends in a gold-plated plug with an adapter for larger jacks.
Open backs give a spacious, natural presentation that suits critical listening at a desk. That same openness means the set leaks sound and blocks nothing, so it belongs in a quiet room.
Who it's for
Quiet studies and home studios suit an open-back set with a wired link. Commuters, flyers and people sharing a room with a sleeper need a closed design.
Pros and cons
- Open back gives a wide soundstage
- Wired link with no compression
- Light build for long sessions
- Adapter for larger amp jacks
- Leaks sound to people nearby
- No noise isolation
- Not water resistant
- Warranty not listed
Performance notes
Open cups let the drivers breathe, which gives an airy stage but lets room noise reach your ears. The low impedance means a phone or laptop jack can drive them without a separate amplifier. A wired four-conductor cable carries the signal with no wireless compression or latency.

Frequently asked questions
How should I care for the Grado SR60x cable and pads?
The listing describes a durable 4-conductor cable and improved cushioning but gives no care steps. Unplug by the plug, not the cord, and store the set dry since it is not water resistant.
Do the Grado SR60x block outside noise?
No. They are open-back headphones with no noise control, so outside sound comes in and music leaks out.
Can I plug the Grado SR60x into an amplifier with a large jack?
Yes. The headphone jack is listed as 3.5mm with a 6.3mm adapter.
Are the Grado SR60x Bluetooth headphones?
No. They are wired headphones with a 3.5mm gold-plated plug.
