Grado SR225x

An improved version of the Grado Prestige series RS 125e model

With the previous update, new headphone cup designs and materials improved airflow by as much as 50%. As a result, the drivers were moved closer to the ear, further improving the soundstage. In addition, the more precise matching accuracy of the drivers highlighted the entire sound field with Grado's quality. Now, the model has been updated again, and comfort has been improved both externally and internally.

The Grado SR225x headphones use state-of-the-art headphone drivers and a top-quality UHPLC (Ultra-High Purity, Long Crystal) cable in the driver's voice coil. The 8-conductor cable allows excellent control of the frequency response extremes without neglecting the fine midrange. The SR225x drivers undergo a de-stress treatment to produce the best reproduction accuracy. Also, the new drivers, headphone cable, and headphone driver housing are designed to produce minimal transient distortion. The bass, midrange, and treble produce a tonally and balance-wise consistent reproduction.

Features:

New driver design
The improved Prestige X-series driver design includes a new magnetic circuit and a redesigned voice coil to improve efficiency and harmonic integrity and minimize distortion.

New cable design
The Prestige X series features a completely redesigned cable for comfort, offering more durability and flexibility. The 8-conductor (SR125X, SR225X, SR325X) and 4-conductor (SR60X, SR80X) cables now have a very pleasant braided cable with a pure copper conductor inside, which improves the purity of the audio signal.

Redesigned headband
The Grado SR225x headphones feature a new artificial leather headband that increases comfort and reduces listening fatigue. This excludes the Grado Prestige flagship model SR325X, which still uses a leather headband.

Grado characteristics
The open structure of the headphones makes them very immune to transient distortion and produces a very impressive frequency band and a Grado-specific midrange reproduction. The SR225x produces a warm and rich sound with impressive dynamics. The treble reproduction of the headphones is, in turn, very soft.
