Wood is often used in audio design and companies are very specific about the types used for speaker cabinets, guitars and drum shells as different woods can significantly alter the tonal qualities achieved, so why should it be any different for headphones? Well, Grado appreciates the tonal benefits of wood and has specifically designed the RS2x with maple and hemp which help to achieve creamy, warmth with rich vocality for your listening pleasure. The RS2x headphones have been hand-built in Brooklyn and optimised with the use of these woods in mind to improve your experience, making it anything but an aesthetic gimmick.
The 44mm 4th gen X Drivers featured on the RS2x headphones have been specifically tuned for the wood housing and offers a more powerful magnetic circuit, a voice coil with decreased effective mass, and a reconfigured diaphragm. This significantly improves efficiency resulting in reduced distortion, preserving the natural integrity of your audio. This allows you to hear every nuance of the music you listen to, picking out parts that were previously inaudible on lesser headphone models.
