What does the i stand for in the new SR125i from Grado? Improved, that’s
what! Grado's ability to combine lightness with extreme rigidity and internal
damping has been put to good use on the SR125i. Based on the same design as
theSR80i, the SR125i also features an improved driver and cable design utilizing
UHPLC (Ultra-high purity, long crystal) copper voice coil wire. With the new 8
conductor cable design you will notice improved control and stability of the
upper and lower range of the frequency spectrum, with both better supporting
Grado’s world renowned midrange. The Diaphragms are put through a special
'de-stressing' process in order to enhance inner detail. The way the SR125i’s
new driver, cable and plastic housing move air and react to sound vibrations are
now less affected by transient distortions. Bass, midrange and treble are all
more open and you will enjoy the fine tonal spread and
balance.

listening was helped by the well-defined locations of individual
instruments and voices. If headphones can be as musically satisfying
as this, they must be pretty good."
