{"product_id":"grado-sr60x-open-back-kopfhoerer","title":"Grado Prestige SR60x Open-Back Headphones","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Grado Prestige SR60x is an open-back on-ear headphone with a 44mm X driver, delivering classic Grado sound at the entry point of the series.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt's the starting point of the Prestige x series – and for many, the moment they realise a headphone can do more than just play loud.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy the SR60x?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe X driver is Grado's new development for this series: a stronger magnet circuit, a voice coil with less moving mass, and a newly voiced diaphragm. In the SR60x it sits in the lightest build in the range – plastic housing, 4-conductor super-annealed copper cable, vegan synthetic headband. Little ballast, lots of music.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat you hear\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA direct, midrange-focused presentation with vocal reproduction that surprises at this level. The flat S-cushions place the driver close to the ear: intimate, immediate, without artificial width. Guitars, vocals, drums – everything comes straight to the point.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWho is the SR60x for?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor anyone finding out for the first time what a proper headphone can really do. Straight talk: open means open – on the train, in an open-plan office, or next to a sleeping housemate, it's the wrong choice. And if you want bass in your chest rather than bass in the groove, keep browsing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eOur verdict\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe SR60x is the most honest entry point we know: no frills, no effects, just driver and music. Hand on heart – start here and you'll listen differently afterwards.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eTechnical data\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eType: Open-back on-ear headphone (Open-Back, dynamic)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSeries: Grado Prestige x (entry model)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDriver: 44 mm, Grado X driver\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFrequency response: 20–20,000 Hz\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSound pressure (1 mW): 98 dB\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNominal impedance: 38 Ω\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDriver channel matching: 0.1 dB\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEar cushions: S-cushion (flat)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCable: 4-conductor, super-annealed copper, permanently attached\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHeadband: Vegan synthetic material\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eConnector: 3.5 mm jack, 6.3 mm adapter included\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eManufacturing: Hand-assembled in Brooklyn, NY\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWhat's included: Headphones, 6.3 mm jack adapter\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eFrequently asked questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat's the difference between the SR60x and the SR80x?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOn paper they're nearly identical: the same 44mm X driver, the same S-cushions, the same 4-conductor cable, 38 Ω on both. In tuning, the SR80x adds a touch more foundation and calm, while the SR60x sounds a shade more direct and lively. Whichever way you lean, you won't go wrong.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eDoes the SR60x need a headphone amplifier?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNo, none is required. At 38 Ω and 98 dB sound pressure, it plays loud enough from a smartphone, laptop or any amplifier output. A good headphone amplifier or DAC still adds more background calm and bass control – as a later upgrade, not a starting requirement.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCan I swap the SR60x's ear cushions?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes. The S-cushions pull off and can be replaced, and you can also switch to other Grado cushions – L- or F-cushions change the distance to the driver and noticeably shift the tuning. We stock replacement cushions individually; they're the cheapest tuning option for any Grado.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy buy the Grado SR60x from HD Zürisee?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBecause we carry the whole Prestige range and can tell you where the sensible starting point lies for your music – even if that means the smallest model is enough.
