About Grado
Grado Labs has hand-built headphones and phono cartridges in the same Brooklyn building since 1953, when Joseph Grado began crafting cartridges — and the family-run company still assembles its headphones by hand in New York. The signature open-back, retro design delivers a famously vivid, immediate sound that has earned generations of devotees; the Prestige series remains one of hi-fi's great entry points.
