Born in Brooklyn and built to perform
Each pair of SR60e headphones is made right in Brooklyn, New York where the Grado family has been building award-winning audio gear for more than 60 years. Like all Grado headphones, the SR60e uses a vented "open-air" earcup design with large, non-resonant air chambers for powerful, extended bass response and more open, spacious sound. Each driver features a high-quality copper voice coil to ensure smooth, dynamic performance with exceptionally low distortion. Drivers are also carefully matched to within 0.1 dB for enhanced stereo imaging and a wide soundstage.

The sound is headphones is great for a mid-price set. Rich bass, nice highs. Comfortable to wear, too. Because they are truly "on-ear", the music can be heard (quietly) by people in the room (unlike over-ear or in-ear headphones). So these would not be the best choice, say, for wearing in a library!
