Grado GS1000x Statement Series Headphones

$1,195.00

 

Continuing over two decades of one of the most important headphone designs, the now hybrid GS1000x reaches new heights when paired with X Drivers, new cables, and for the first time a combination of mahogany and ipê wood.

“…the company’s ultimate art-not-science blend of style, performance, and comfort, with lightweight, oversized mahogany earpieces that would make your dad jealous — and sound that anyone with a discerning eardrum would kill for.”

The hand-crafted mahogany earpieces utilize an intricate curing process that optimizes the tonal quality while giving them a new look. The GS1000x uses 50mm dynamic transducers and the new 12 conductor cable design. The wood, driver, and cable designs, result in tight control and stability of the upper and lower range of the frequency spectrum to support the GS1000x’s world renowned midrange. Grado’s GS1000x cushion design actually creates a ‘room’ for the ears to sit, with a larger soundstage and greater spatial experience for the listener. It was most important to design the correct balance between the driver and our wooden driver housing to give us the pure sound we crave. We believe the GS1000x are one of the most comfortable headphones on the market today. The GS1000x retains a sound that is pure Grado, with warm harmonic colors, rich full bodied vocals, excellent dynamics, and an ultra-smooth top end. The presentation is very detailed, the bass is deep, and the music is very tight while non-fatiguing. All with stunning separation and layering of the music.
