It preserves the SR325 family’s long-standing emphasis on speed, clarity and direct musical engagement while moving the model into Grado’s latest Classic Series platform.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e44mm X2 Dynamic Driver\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe SR325 uses Grado’s 44mm X2 dynamic driver, incorporating a Mylar diaphragm, copper voice coil and rare-earth magnetic system engineered for efficiency and control. Grado tunes the SR325 for articulation and speed, with tight bass response, forward midrange clarity and crisp high-frequency extension.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003ePrecision-Machined Aluminum Housing\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe defining structural feature of the SR325 is its \u003cstrong\u003eprecision-machined aluminum housing\u003c\/strong\u003e. The rigid metal earcups are designed to reduce unwanted resonance and support a fast, controlled presentation while giving the SR325 a distinctly premium feel compared with molded-housing models lower in the Classic Series.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSignature Silver Headband Assembly\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe SR325 incorporates Grado’s Signature Silver headband assembly, developed from the same engineering platform as the company’s Signature Gold system. Engraved reinforced-polymer gimbals and junction blocks maintain improved geometry and controlled rotation while reducing unnecessary weight. A genuine leather headstrap with contrasting white stitching improves comfort, and the internal steel spring band allows listeners to adjust clamping pressure to suit their fit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSignature Silver Cable\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGrado equips the SR325 with its fixed \u003cstrong\u003eSignature Silver cable\u003c\/strong\u003e, designed for reduced weight and improved flexibility compared with earlier cable designs. The standard connection uses a 3.5mm plug with a removable 1\/4-inch adapter for compatibility with portable sources, dedicated headphone amplifiers and traditional home audio components.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eF Cushions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe SR325 ships with Grado F cushions, positioning the drivers close to the ear and reinforcing the headphone’s immediate, energetic presentation. Grado cushions also function as part of the acoustic tuning system, allowing compatible cushion changes to subtly alter tonal balance and spatial presentation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eOpen-Back Grado Sound\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe SR325’s open-air design allows the drivers to breathe freely rather than trapping energy inside a sealed earcup.
