Grado GR8

Grado Labs, the Brooklyn-based manufacturer of cartridges for turntables and high-fidelity headphones, recently got serious about in-canal earphones. The Grado GR8, at $299 (list), joins a field crowded with excellent choices. The Bowers & Wilkins C5 In-Ear Headphones ($179.95, 4.5 stars) and the Etymotic ER-4PT ($299, 4.5 stars) are two recent Editors' Choice winners. The GR8 offers more low-end response than the ER-4PT and less than the C5, making it an ideal choice for audiophiles seeking flat response earphones that still cover deep bass ranges. (There are some other differentiators, which we will discuss later.) The Grado GR8 is a no-frills earphone option, and has some stiff competition, but it offers top-notch audio performance that earns it our Editors' Choice. DesignIt's hard to imagine a less streamlined, undecorated design than the Grado GR8. The earpieces' one standout characteristic is the dark blue, shiny metallic finish, and the classy Grado logo emblazoned over it in white. A thin gray band separates the blue finish from the transparent silicon-and-rubber eartips. Overall, the earphones are among the tiniest we've ever tested. The small earpiece design helps secure the fit.

Grado GR8 Review

We take a look at Grado's in-ear GR8 headphones which provide superior sound and comfort. The folks at Grado Labs are well educated in matters of high performance headphones. Their SR60i headphones, for example, made our Best Headphones of 2010 list and are frequently praised as the best sounding on-ear headphones you can get for under $100.00. Considering the popularity of the iPod and other portable players, one might think that offering an in-ear model would be a foregone conclusion. For whatever reason, though, Grado has quietly gone without an in-ear model…until now. With the introduction of the GR8, Grado acknowledges that the portable media player is here to stay and that a large segment of listeners demand a high quality, comfortable set of in-ears to go with their iPod. In this review, we’ll take a close look at the GR8 and see if they really are as ‘great’ as their name might imply.The GR8 model headphones from Grado are packaged very simply. Inside the compact box you’ll find the GR8 headphones, three different sizes of silicone ear tips and…well, that’s it. The GR8 do not come with a carrying case or any adapters. We think Grado expects you’ll pull them from the packaging, plug them in and never look back.
