This product can only be shipped to U.S. addresses.Grado Labs is introducing the new Statement Series, which brings fourth generation X Drivers to the wooden GS3000x. The GS3000x houses their most powerful driver yet inside a metal chamber surrounded by a single body of cocobolo wood. Along with the superior sound these new drivers produce, the GS3000x also utilizes Grado's improved 12 conductor braided cable and new headbands. Headphones are assembled in Brooklyn, New York.
The new flagship GS3000x is the best sounding headphone Grado has released in their seven decade history. The largest driver to be placed in a Grado headphone yet, the new 52mm speaker is specifically tuned to embrace the tenacity of cocobolo and precision of metal. This speaker design features a more powerful magnetic circuit, a voice coil with decreased effective mass, and a reconfigured diaphragm. Teeming with texture and emotion, cocobolo's sonic properties and innate mass makes it perfect for the new speakers. They paired this with a metal inner chamber to add even more mass, which lets them control the rigidity of our largest driver yet. Cocobolo has striking patterns and color that tend to vary from pair to pair.
In thirty years Grado Labs has only released four generations of drivers, the speaker inside the headphone. Avoiding yearly update cycles "just because", Grado has made sure to only place new drivers inside their headphones when there is a significant upgrade. The X Drivers bring a completely redesigned speaker and new harmony to the inner workings of the GS3000x and GS1000x. Each one is specifically tuned for the wooden enclosure they're in. In Grado's pursuit for the betterment of sonic reproduction, the Brooklyn company.
