Grado GS1000x

The GS1000x utilizes Grado’s distinctive 50mm X Driver, which features a specialized formulation and a silvergrass stylus treatment. This driver architecture is engineered to reduce distortion and provide a highly dynamic sound signature.

Yes, the GS1000x features an open-backed design that allows air to pass freely through the ear cups, preventing internal air pressure buildup. This design choice is critical for creating their famously wide soundstage and natural audio presentation.

These headphones come equipped with large, thick foam ear pads that are designed to sit flat against the ear rather than encompassing it entirely. The spacious, open-cell foam design helps to maximize the spatial audio characteristics of the drivers.

The GS1000x comes equipped with a heavy-duty 12-conductor copper cable engineered for pure audio signal transmission. It terminates in a standard 1/4-inch plug, making it perfectly suited for high-end home audio amplifiers rather than portable devices.
