There are hundreds of options available when it comes to headphones today. Obvious questions of quality, cost, comfort, and durability come to mind when anyone is looking for a good pair of headphones. The choice of in-ear or over-the-head construction too must be accommodated for. My experience is that the best in studio monitor quality headphones for under $100 are Grado Labs Sri-60. They are amazingly comfortable, sound incredible and delivery unmatched audio fidelity. The drivers in these earphones competes with that of more expensive competitors (Bose, Sennheiser, & AKG to name a few).

Grado Prestige Series SR-60i Padded Headphones

If you are looking for pretty much the best deal in studio quality headphones for a reasonable price, the SR-60i Series truly are great choice. Whether you’re listening to classical music, recording in the studio, blaring rock and roll and listening to books on mp3, these headphones will deliver stellar audio. I have had a single pair for three years now, the cord has been replaced twice, but they still sound wonderful.
