Grado RS1x
A distinctive voice
The renewed 50 mm X-series elements together with hemp, cocobolo and maple raise the music experience to a new level. Maple does the main work in the case structure, while hemp smooths the top and bottom end reproduction and cocobolo is responsible for bringing the extra kick to the sound.
**X Series Elements*
The fourth generation X-series headphone elements are here. Specially tuned to work in the wooden case of the RS1x, this new headphone element is equipped with a beefier magnetic motor, a lighter voice coil and a redesigned diaphragm. The new design of these components has improved the efficiency of the 50 mm headphone element, reduced distortion values and preserves the tonal authenticity of the music even better.
New cable design
In the Prestige X series, the cable design has been completely renewed with comfort in mind, offering more durability and flexibility. The 8-conductor cable now has a very pleasant braided sock and a clean copper conductor inside, which improves the purity of the audio signal.
Handmade in Brooklyn
Like all previous models dating back to 1953, the RS1x is handcrafted in Brooklyn
