Grado’s Third Generation

The Grado family makes exquisite headphones by hand in their Brooklyn facility. Each iteration of Grado products represents a significant step forward in sonic reproduction. Grado headphones have already been called “The finest electricity-to-sound transducer in the world.” So how did they improve upon perfection?

• Every single component, surface, and material used in e-Series Grado headphones has been upgraded and optimized for one purpose: outstanding dynamics and fidelity.
• Grado’s proprietary SpaceBlack Polycarbonate is engineered to absorb excess energy and reduce secondary impulses, for a clearer tone.
• The e Series method of curing select Mahogany tone-woods enhances their natural ability to reduce sound coloration and produce consistent results.
• Rhodium, the most expensive precious metal on earth, is employed to prevent corrosion on connectors, and unwanted graininess in your music.
• More than 60 years of Grado Labs expertise have led us to develop the most refined driver geometry in our history, which tracks music frequencies with unequaled precision.
• Design refinements within the housing prevent stray resonance from interacting with the driver, thus protecting the purity of reproduction.
• The magnetic field has been fine-tuned for symmetry throughout the full range of the voice coil.
• Even the glue is new, optimized for greater strength, less mass, and better reliability.
• The traditional Grado headphones open-back form factor has not changed, because it delivers superior sonic quality and greater realism than closed-back designs.

So if you’re looking for one good reason to invest in e Series Grado headphones here it is: They bring you closer to your favorite artists. Your listening experience will feel more intimate because nothing comes between your ears and the performance.
