Grado's GS1000x headphones are more than meets the eye. They may look like any other pair of over-ear headphones but Grado is committed to continuous improvement. These headphones introduce ipê, a durable tropical wood, alongside Grado’s beloved mahogany, enhancing sonic solidity and robustness in the driver housing.
The GS1000x headphones boast the atest ‘X’ dynamic drivers, designed to leverage the warmth of mahogany. The 50mm drivers feature a more potent magnetic circuit, a lower-mass voice coil, and a reworked diaphragm for heightened efficiency and reduced distortion. The redesign extends to the headband and cables, featuring a 12-conductor super-annealed copper cable and a minimally padded, leather-covered headband with elegant white stitching.
Delivering a vivid, detailed sound, the GS1000x captivates with its compelling and absorbing performance. Grado’s focus on construction over flashy design is evident in the GS1000x. While the materials are top-notch, the emphasis is on positioning the drivers over the ears. Weighing less than 400g, they provide comfort for extended listening sessions. As open-backed headphones, they’re best enjoyed in solitude where they reward you with a sonic experience that lingers.
