Grado Reference Series Headphones

Our love for building with wood started in 1994 with our first wooden headphone. The unique soundscape of wood, when paired with our new X Drivers, brings the signature Grado sound to new heights.

Grado RS1x

Tri-Wood Oasis

Leading the way for our 4th gen X Drivers, the redesigned Grado RS1x combines maple, hemp, and cocobolo wood into a vivacious and elegant headphone.

A New Harmony.

The Grado RS1x is the first headphone to be built with the larger 50mm X Drivers. Specifically tuned for the tri-wood RS1x, this new speaker design features a more powerful magnetic circuit, a voice coil with decreased effective mass, and a reconfigured diaphragm. Reengineering these components for our 50mm drivers improve efficiency, reduces distortion, and preserves the harmonic integrity of your music.

Grado RS1x - $750

Maple, Meet Hemp

A family favorite, the Grado RS2x has been completely redesigned to bring out the full potential of its maple and hemp wood. The housing’s sleeve and ring are made from maple, while a hemp core keeps everything together. We build with wood for its warm and embracing tonal abilities, and the Grado RS2x is an exceptional evolution to the RS2 line.
