Advantages: Good sound, long lead, mini-jack and 1/4 inch jack provided. Disadvantages: Some may find the 'on ear' fit difficult at first.
...In the interests of disclosure, I used to sell these products!
These are great headphones with Grado's unique vintage styling. These are the second headphone up the range and a clearly noticable improvement from the entry level (they use better wiring & technically superior, closer matched drivers). The jump up to the next headphone in the series (SR125) does not give anywhere near the same return for your money as the jump from SR60 to SR80.

They have a long lead as standard and come with mini-jack plug (for portable kit) and an adaptor to fit standard 1/4 inch jacks on Hi-Fi kit.

So far I've had my pair for close to eight months and I haven't had much to complain about. In fact, quiet the opposite. They have a solid build quality with a thick, well protected jack cable, which means the the chances of a lose or broken wire causing sound in one or both ears to cut falls dramatically. Even more impressive is that the Grado provide a year long guarantee...
