Listening ($200)

Should you live in less smoke-prohibitive climes, you might go to a nightclub and spend $200 on cigars. (x2)

The Grado Prestige Series (SR-60) reference headphones offer a Stereophile approved source of fine fidelity sort of like a Cohiba Esplendido to the Cigar Connoisseur.

We'd like to introduce to you the Grado SR-80, or SR-80e, if you prefer. ($192.76 CDN)


Grado Prestige Series SR-80e Headphones ($192.76 CDN)

We would suggest that the Grado SR-80e along with the Asus Xonar U7 are a solid, one-listen experience.

Look at the Xonar circuit board, and you will see that it is equivalent (though a different circuit)
