Grado

Grado Labs is a Brooklyn based company that hand makes headphones and cartridges. Family run since 1953, Grado has seen three generations: Joseph, John, and Jonathan Grado. As Ars Technica says, “…on a quiet street in south Brooklyn is a manufacturing operation that produces some of the most renowned headphones… it’s just the Grados in their narrow townhouse making the little-known, well-loved line of headphones.”

*We carry more than just the products listed below. For more information about products from this brand that aren’t listed here, please contact us to inquire.

Labs was founded by Joseph (1924-2015) in 1953 in Brooklyn. Over the past 61 years, has become famous for their remarkable headphone and phono cartridge designs. Joseph is responsible for more innovations in phono cartridge design than any other person in our lifetime, inventing the stereo moving coil phono cartridge and holding more than 48 patents.

Joseph is responsible for more innovations in phono cartridge design than any other person in our lifetime. He was inducted into the Audio Hall of Fame in 1982.

This little shop only has the best options

"I spent days in and out of this awesome little cozy shop with my girlfriend trying to decide on a new gift for our new home. We visited other hi-fi shops in the city but none compared in terms of ambiance and attention. Sure, others have more selection (HUGE space requirement) but this little shop only has the best options and the pieces you'll want...in terms of a deal and value, we are VERY happy and will return there for future upgrades! :-) Thanks Kerry!" ~Sean J.

Really nice boutique sound store.

"Really nice boutique sound store. The chairs for listening are more comfortable than the ones in my own living room and huge windows shine light in the place. They even let us listen to our original recording through their speakers. It was really great. Loveable and sweet dog too!" ~Leah L. Yelp

Will 100% be returning with all my audio needs.

"AMAZING! I was having trouble with my vinyl setup, and when I called the store that originally sold it to me they actually suggested that I call Bright Audio. So I called. Didn't matter that I wasn't even a patron, one of the employees (Allen--thanks!!) spent 15 minutes on the phone helping to walk me though a few troubleshooting options. He was clear and knowledgeable and patiently explained everything until it was fixed! Will 100% be returning with all my audio needs." ~Emma F. Yelp
