Best Black Friday Grado headphones deal
A What Hi-Fi? Awards 2022 winner, these Grados are the best home budget wired headphones we've tested, and arguably the best below £100.
Their musical, detailed sound makes them a truly top buy, and the go-to cans before you reach the pricier options such as the Grado SR325x and Beyerdynamic DT 900 Pro X.
The SR80x feature an open-back design that is flagged aesthetically by the distinctly holey ear cups through which sound leaks (they're best suited to use at home, rather than on-the-go). Performance is exceptionally open and dynamic.
Slip them on and you'll find the underside of the pleather headband to be supremely soft and comfortable. These headphones are feather-light, too – you'll barely notice them.
Inside the box, you'll find a 1.8m cable with a new, rugged and grippy braided jacket.
If you’re serious about sound quality and have £99 to spend on Black Friday (opens in new tab), nothing comes close to the Grado SR80x.
