Grado RS2 Headphones review

Grado remains a specialist dedicated to headphones, cartridges and a small range of accessories, including a helmet is not designed Natty amplifier.

Grado RS2 Headphones


Grado RS2 is typical of the variety in research between the back and understated - at least not accuse us first grade go on top of that. However, solid mahogany shelter is not only practical, but beautiful.


Our main concern is the design and facade with foam earcups, which are very hard and rough, and sit on the ears instead of around it. The resulting pressure is not always easy and certainly intend to recommend a buyer to spend at least 15 minutes, wearing a helmet.


Construction of high-end
This model shares many features with the following model, the SR-1, including the "Ultra-high purity long crystal in the copper coils, both the voice and initiative. As in most high-end headphones, these days, the magnet is in any kind of rare earths.

Grado makes the most of the process used to relieve the tension of the diaphragm before each controller is integrated into a finished helmet and says this reduces the rupture of the diaphragm and the resonance and hence the distortion.


At the bottom of the design, RS2 eliminates a lot of noise, but at least do not feel very intrusive to the head. Lead is very flexible and mounted almost free of friction noise.


Associated Music Experience
Il s'agit certainement d'un casque d'écoute de la musique. The first impression is strong, realistic and musical instruments with great body and presence. The sound is not entirely devoid of dyes, but any deviation from neutrality is not intrusive.
What to expect from Grado models, the detail is very good, at least most of the time. Only occasionally we had something like a thickening of the sound, an effect that appears to occur when the upper midrange is particularly busy.
Otherwise, if there is a high degree of understanding complex musical textures. In particular, appreciate the voice through the headphones, all well characterized and (if we have heard the original) quite natural and recognizable.


Minor staining
It is interesting to note that the lighter color of the hull tends to make the sounds seem to come from someone close to the listener that we are accustomed to - a bit of a lift at the top of the high and high-high, not very often fall rapidly with distance.


Why should it be more sensitive than other headsets, we can only imagine, because it is very characteristic. Sometimes we think we have detected a slight upward wealth, but if it is smaller and, frankly, very enjoyable.


Rough diamonds
And 'certainly a headset hands when it comes to different musical styles. Classical symphonies and string quartets are treated equally and well adapted to the tastes of the general public.


In fact, the sound is not too civil: it is only a trace of bitterness, which in any case, instead of offsetting the trend could have headphones for the sound too "perfect." In short, this is a transducer well rounded with great interest in many areas.


The price is high on the side, but we believe that this can be justified, not even the basic look and feel. HFC
