The Grado eGrado is an on-ear, behind-the-neck headphone from the Prestige Series, designed for open-air listening.
The Grado eGrado is a lightweight, wired on-ear headphone that delivers a lively and engaging sound, with a particular strength in bass response for its price point. It offers a transparent and open presentation typical of the brand, though it can exhibit slight sibilance in the upper mids and occasional driver distortion on certain tracks. Best suited for genres like rock, jazz, and pop, it may not be the ideal pick for bass-heavy electronic music with continuous low-end.

6:06The reviewer tested the Grado eGrado headphones for a week and found them very comfortable and lightweight, with good sound for rock and alternative music. However, they were disappointed by the distortion at higher volumes, the cheap plastic build, and the scratchy foam pads, concluding that at $49.99 they are not worth recommending, especially compared to cheaper alternatives that perform better.
