What customers say about "Size & Weight"
Grado SR125i Prestige Series Headphones
  • They're small enough to put in a bag and bring with you while traveling, but you'll need a case.
  • I have a large head, simply said. The phones fit comfortably on my head with no discomfort from wearing them for an extended period.
  • You can keep these on your head for hours and forget they are even there, so comfortable and light.
  • They are not very tight on my biggish ears, and sit very lightly on my large head.
  • I listened for hours with need to give my ears or head a rest.
Grado SR225i Prestige Series Headphones
  • They are very comfortable (I have small ears) and they fit very snugly.
  • I've worn them for upwards of 10 hours at a time and have found them to be very comfortable.
  • Light weight, comfortable for most (if your head is big, bend the headband outwards a little so the cups don't murder your ears).
  • The clarity, crispness, sound quality, etc of these headphones is phenomenal. Also very comfortable to wear for hours on end while working.
  • I never bring these anywhere because of their fragility and size.

What customers say about "Features"
Grado SR125i Prestige Series Headphones
  • I have about 7 hours of listening time on them and they have improved noticeably so far.
  • The soundstage is extremely engaging and gives you a real sense of being surrounded by the music.
  • One really nice thing about the open design of these is that when you sing along, you can hear yourself harmonizing with the band.
  • The cable is thick but not replaceable, and 1/4 inch jack that needs to be adapted before you can plug it into anything.
  • The cable is too thick and to heavy, explains also the good soundquality.
Grado SR225i Prestige Series Headphones
  • Sound great even at higher volumes(caution you can damage your hearing from setting volume too high).
  • They already sound good out of the box without any support such as amplification (it only gets better though).
  • The weight is low and the cups can rotate, so you can easily lay them in a suitcase with your clothes.
  • It's easy and uncomplicated to ajust the fit. The cable is nice and sturdy.
  • Cord is a little short, could be a foot or two longer.
