Grado Signature S950
The Grado Signature S950 is a high-end open-back headphone that continues Grado’s tradition of using fine woods. For the first time, it features Brazilian walnut, known for its density and stability, supporting a natural, detailed sound signature.
Design and materials: Each headphone is handcrafted from Brazilian walnut, with each housing’s individual grain unique. Weighing just 395 grams and featuring a redesigned headband with 50% more padding than previous models, the S950 offers superior comfort for long listening sessions.
Technical specifications: The Signature S950 features the new 52 mm S-driver, which ensures precise and low-distortion reproduction. The frequency range extends from 3.5 Hz to 51.5 kHz, with an impedance of 38 ohms and a sensitivity of 117 dB SPL/mW.
Cables and connectors: The headphones feature detachable cables that connect to the earcups via a 4-pin mini XLR connector. They come standard with the Grado Signature Gold cable, which is 1.8 meters long and has a 6.35 mm jack plug. Future cable options with 4-pin XLR and 4.4 mm balanced connectors are planned.
Sound characteristics: Compared to the analytically tuned HP100 SE, the Signature S950 offers a more neutral and balanced sound reproduction. The highs are detailed, the mids smooth, and the bass present without being overpowering, enabling relaxed and natural music reproduction.
With its combination of fine materials, innovative technology, and outstanding sound quality, the Grado Signature S950 is an enrichment for discerning music lovers.
