Grado - RS1 - Classic Series Dynamic Driver Headphones
The Grado RS1 Classic Series Dynamic Driver Headphones offer a lively, intimate listening experience built around Grado’s open-air design and handcrafted wood construction. As part of the Classic Series, the RS1 combines premium materials with a focused, expressive sound that highlights vocals, instruments, and midrange texture with excellent clarity. Its compact over-ear/on-ear fit and open-back presentation make it a strong choice for dedicated home listening.
At the center of the RS1 is Grado’s 50mm X2 dynamic driver, using a Mylar diaphragm, copper voice coil, and rare earth magnetic system. The tri-wood housing combines cocobolo, hemp, and maple, giving the headphone a layered acoustic structure that balances density, damping, and tonal control. L-cushions help reinforce the RS1’s direct, immediate presentation while also serving as part of Grado’s acoustic tuning.
The RS1 also features Grado’s Signature Gold headband assembly with engraved aluminum alloy gimbals, stainless steel height rods, reinforced aluminum junction blocks, and a genuine leather headstrap. A Signature Silver cable provides improved flexibility and reduced weight for easier handling during long listening sessions. With its 38 ohms impedance, 99.8 dB sensitivity, and matched drivers, the RS1 delivers a refined Classic Series sound with strong musical presence and lasting comfort.
