Tested in our issue 60, the Grado Signature HP100SE and S950 are the latest additions to Grado’s headphone catalog. They are now joined by the more affordable S750.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The first to feature the new 50 mm (2 inches) diameter S2 transducers, the S750 combines a composite carbon fiber and paper diaphragm with a lightweight copper-plated aluminum voice coil. Introduced on the HP100SE, the detachable cable system with 4-pin mini-XLR connectors has been retained, but in this version the 6.33 mm jack cable features a lighter and softer Signature Gold braided design. The headphone design allows you to switch to a balanced cable if required.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
But if there’s one thing to focus on with this new Grado, it’s the second model of ear pads. Here, the New York brand seems to have listened to the recommendations of its customers and distributors by introducing a new foam design for model B. As we mentioned in our article on the S950, the sound quality became exceptional when the foam pads supplied with the headphones were replaced with leather pads manufactured by ZMF. This is because the B foam pads were too thin and therefore uncomfortable, as well as placing the sound image too close to the ear canal, and the A version (both still included in the packs) was too wide, causing a slight dispersion of the bass. Now, the S750 model comes with B ear pads, which feature foam on the inside of the ear cup to improve comfort, and eight slits to optimize airflow for better sound balance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Assembled in Brooklyn like the other Signature models, the Grado S750 is more compact and has a smaller headband than the other two models in the series. It is priced at 500 \u20ac less than the S950, at 2 000 \u20ac (1 695 $), and is available to order from November.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
