Other High-End Headphone Manufacturers Available at Elusive Disc

Grado Labs: Brooklyn's Finest, Made by Hand

For more than six decades, Grado has been handcrafting some of the world's most musically rewarding headphones. Across its open-back lines, Grado headphones produce a sound that is warm and dynamic, ideal for rock, jazz, and vinyl aficionados.

Their Prestige and Reference lines are a favorite among audiophiles for timbre, tight bass, and clarity throughout the range. They are all hand-assembled in New York from mahogany, leather, and high-end drivers.

Stax: Electrostatic EarSpeakers for the Elite

Want the absolute best in terms of detail and realism? Enter Stax headphones—officially called earspeakers. Employing electrostatic driver technology, Stax headphones play back sound with stunning speed and articulation. They are powered by special energizers but yield reference-grade sound that few dynamic headphones are able to compete with.

Best suited for classical, jazz, or instrumental, Stax is the epitome of audiophile technology in headphones.

The Features that Make the Difference

All headphones are not equal. At Elusive Disc, we assist you in the proper product selection for your setup and desired use. Important features to consider are:

1. Driver Type

• Prestige: Classic selection, wonderful punch and bass
• Planar Magnetic: Increased speed, imaging, and separation
• Electrostatic: For the epitome of detail and refinement

2. Impedance and Sensitivity

Higher-impedance headphones (such as 300 ohms) might need a separate headphone amplifier. Be sure to consider impedance when pairing with portable versus desktop setups.

3. Open-Back vs. Closed

• Open-back headphones, such as those by Grado or AKG, provide broad, natural sound with minimal noise isolation.
• Closed-back models are best suited for personal listening or travel, with tight bass and external noise blocked out.

4. Comfort and Ergonomics

Be on the lookout for breathable earpads, headbands with cushioning, and light weight—particularly for extended periods of listening.

Maximizing performance with optimal gear

Even top-of-the-line headphones are improved by quality accessories. Below is what else you can get from Elusive Disc:

✅ Headphone Amplifiers

Unlock your high-impedance or planar headphones' true potential with a proper amplifier. Stax, Lehmann Audio, and Musical Fidelity are three of the many brands that have amplifier options that complement our selection of headphones perfectly.

✅ DACs (Digital-to-Analog Converters)

Pairing a standalone DAC with a headphone greatly enhances resolution and dynamics. Our top picks are the AudioQuest DragonFly Cobalt and M2TECH HiFace USB DAC.
