Grado iGrado White

Renown for their trad old-school look and lively rocknroll sound, industry buzz was all agog about Brooklyn's venerable Grado Labs joining with hipster street culture to create the portable iGrado headphone. Featuring a non-adjustable neckband design and efficient sensitivity ratings, the iGrado are designed for active folks listening on the fly to iPods, Mp3 players and laptop computers. These have a slightly 'warmer' signature sound than most other Grado cans although the bass response could have used just a bit more detailed punch. All that being said, the iGrado have become the darlings of headphone hobbyists who have devised ingenious "improvements" to the headphone such as modifying the foam earpads or re-cabling the cord, resulting in better sound. Another quibble for us is the solid plastic, non-adjustable neckband that might become a bit uncomfortable for some wearers depending on the size and geometry of their particular noggin. We still lean heavily towards the Grado SR60 model as being THE killer entry-level headphone, and it too will work very well in most portable applications despite its slightly larger ergonomics compared to the iGrado.

The iGrado are an open-design (NO noise-blocking!) headphone with a one-piece plastic headband that loops around the back of the neck. The earpieces are lightly padded with a thin foam material shielding the speaker elements next to the ear. Although it may appear to the naked eye like the earpieces would be able to rotate for fit adjustments, they are actually fixed earcups permanently attached to the neckband. This certainly limits how widely useful they might be for big-headed types -- like our CEO! The impedance rating of the iGrado is 32-ohms, just like the rest of the Grado headphone line, and the claimed frequency response range is a very respectable 20-20000Hz. The iGrado headphones are available in either black or white color. All iGrado headphones feature an 120-day manufacturer's warranty.
