Description
Grado’s RS1x embraces “less headphone, more driver” by incorporating a mix of Maple, Hemp, and Cocobolo woods, resulting in a smaller yet rigid housing.
Inside, the X Series driver, enhanced magnetic circuit, and reduced mass promise improved response time.
Despite its reduction in size and mass, the RS1x maintains a solid feel, deviating from the common sleek and metallic designs.
Grado’s focus on two drivers in free space delivers a listening experience unlike any other at its price point.
Tonally natural, it handles voices and instruments with unshowy believability.
The larger driver brings effortless heft, invigoratingly rapid response, and an impressive three-dimensionality to the sound.
