Grado Labs iGrado Headphones Review - Value & Comparisons

Value (6.0)
By far, the most appealing aspect of the iGrado headphones is their price. At a scant $50, they're priced to move, and cheap enough to ignore a lot of their downsides. They don't offer audiophile-quality, but they do provide good enough sound for most users. The main issue we had was with comfort. One option may be to crunch the numbers and find out how much a do-it-yourself head cushion would add to their cost. The second, more minor issue, had to do with portability. Yes, these headphones are very, very light and don't displace much actual volume. Without a collapsible band, however, they will be a bit awkward to shove in a pocket.

In terms of bang for buck, however, the iGrado headphones provide a bit more than average, for a bit less than average.
