The Grado RS1x headphones bring a tri-wood acoustic chamber design and updated driver technology to the acclaimed Reference Series lineup. Hand-assembled in Brooklyn, these on/over-ear headphones combine distinct wood properties with a larger driver to produce an expressive, richly detailed sound balance.Tri-Wood Housing for Acoustic Balance:The housing of the Grado RS1x integrates maple, hemp, and cocobolo hardwoods into a single composite structure. Each timber layer provides specific acoustic characteristics: maple delivers structural clarity, hemp dampens unwanted resonance for warmer tonality, and cocobolo adds harmonic depth. This precise combination generates a natural tonal presentation across every genre.Enhanced 50mm X-Series Driver:Equipped with a 50mm X-Series dynamic driver, the Grado RS1x Reference Series platform improves signal efficiency while minimizing distortion. The larger diaphragm delivers authoritative lower frequencies, enhanced micro-detail, and precise voice textures without introducing harshness into the upper frequencies.Open-Back Acoustic Design:Featuring an open-back physical design, the Grado RS1x allows air to move naturally through the driver housing. This open structure expands the soundstage, creating accurate spatial separation between vocalists and instruments for an immersive listening environment in dedicated spaces.Authorized Dealer:We are an authorized dealer for Grado, ensuring that your equipment arrives with complete support.
