Introduction
The Grado SR60s follow the trend of all other Grado headphones: an open-backed design with a large air chamber. This automatically means the SR60s are best suited for a home environment, where they will provide an open, airy listening experience. Elsewhere, the design will allow a fair amount of exchange between what you’re listening to and the outside world: you’ll hear everything around you, and everyone around you will hear your music. The SR60s have about 6.5 feet of cable, which also allows these headphones to flourish in the home environment, assuming your system isn’t more than six feet away. Their foam pads and leather-on-metal band won’t provide the most comfortable listening session, but they aren’t really uncomfortable either.
The Grado SR60 headphones are currently available for about $69.

$65.633Sennheiser CX 680i
The Sennheiser CX 680i in-ear headphones are a decent set of lower-mid-range headphones with a remote & mic. They don't have the best quality and they're not quite as rugged as we would've expected from a set of in-ears aimed at the gym crew, but they're a great value at $100. Read full 13-part review
