​Our best selling headphone ever...

We stocked and sold audiophile quality headphones for over 20 years.  In the under $100 category, to our ears, none ever sounded better than the Grado SR80, (current version is the Grado SR80x )!  Grado Labs is a small audiophile company dedicated to better sound quality at affordable prices. Though not winning any awards for styling, Grado's price/performance level is unequaled!
Grado SR80 - Hands down, these are our favorite headphones! Why! Because the price/performance ratio is about the highest we have found. Compared to the average, under $50 closed package, department store headphone; the detail offered by these Grados is a huge, noticeable improvement! And, though you can spend a lot more money on headphones, the improvement in sound quality those hundred dollar plus Cans have over the SR80 will only be minor no matter how much you spend! We do want to mention though, Grado's are very "Open" headphones. Sound leaks in and out so they may not be appropriate for use in some public applications. These Grado's are mid-sized headphones, but they are easy to drive so they are popular for both home and portable use. We are no longer selling headphones, but you can purchase directly from Grado thru Amazon.  Here is the link...   Grado SR80x

Koss Porta Pro Headphones

Still our favorite Portable Headphone! - The Koss PortaPro is one of the few models Koss has continued to market since the late 80's due to the high quality sound and build. The PortaPro has long been a favorite "Portable" headphone with audiophiles! In addition to the very light weight and comfort these headphones have to offer, the PortaPro's also have a unique comfort feature. Koss calls it their "Comfort Zone"! A button on each side of the temporal pads switches to place more pressure here than on your ear. This results in making the PortaPro's some of the most comfortable headphones you will ever wear!  We are no longer selling headphones, but you can purchase directly from Koss thru Amazon.  Here is the link...

FOR YEARS, THIS WAS OUR BEST SELLING "CLOSED" HEADPHONE... Sennheiser HD280 Professional. Closed Cans under $100 often sound muffled. The HD280 was one of the few we liked at this price level. Good detail in the mids and highs. Bass is not overwhelming. Note, in this day and age, alot of headphones have exaggerated bass. This is fine if you like this sort of thing. But for mixing purposes, or for more accurate personal listening, exaggerated bass is a bad thing. Bottom line... We liked the HD280Pro and it was a best seller for us!
