Grado GS3000e

Over-ear headphones

“The GS3000es convey the drama of the music superbly, delivering an agile sound that draws us into the music”

The Grado GS3000es need a listening room. That sounds like an odd thing to say about a pair of headphones, but get a pair and that’s exactly what you’ll wish for.

The GS3000es are an open-backed design. They not only leak out lots of sound but they let in everything too. Voices, traffic noises, kettles boiling, you name it – all will intrude on your listening experience to varying degrees.
