The hand-crafted mahogany and maple merged enclosures are a realization of the knowledge from the experience that only Grado Labs knows from working with wood.
This technique is used by the finest musical instrument manufacturers from the past and the present.
The use of Maple gives the energy of the sound of music to be fully transmitted, then the Mahogany allows it to open up and reveal the true harmonic structure as well as the space that the artist intended
In addition every component in the GS2000e is considered carefully, the new purpose built 50 mm drivers, the 12 conductor ultra high purity copper cable and ear cushions, all work together for an engaging musical experience.
This organic approach embodies what is truly artisanal and is the essence of how we can effectively connect to the music.
Grado headphones have a sound.
I'm never more aware of that as when I listen to Grados at recording sessions. I could go into the studio and hear the band play -- then hear them in the control room with a set of Grados and feel their energy.
Grado headphones reach me in ways that other headphones rarely do.
Steve Guttenberg, CNET
Live and coherent sound...light weight for it´s size… Combining different wood materials – maple and mahogany – makes the look and feel of the 270grams headphones more lighter. Also the use a good quality leather makes the finish impeccable
