3 reviews from 3 critics“They may not do much by current headphone standards, and their open‑backed design means anyone nearby will hear a good deal of what you're hearing also, but what they do, the Grado Reference Series Hemp do very well indeed.”
“It is hard to imagine headphones looking, or sounding, any better.”
The Grado The Hemp Headphones are limited-edition open-back on-ears that offer outstandingly balanced mids and a spacious passive soundstage, though they suffer from mediocre build quality, poor noise isolation, and a lack of a microphone. These headphones are a good choice for discerning audiophiles focused on neutral sound but are poorly suited for commuting or mixed-use scenarios.
