I had a great time chatting with Jonathan Grado about gear – and photography. Check out his amazing portfolio here. Super talented guy.
The new Grado Head-Fi HF3 headphones ($350) were in constant use throughout the show. Also, $100 from each sale of these commemorative headphones goes to charity.
From 4OurEars:
Grado is happy to present the third version of our Head-Fi headphone series… the HF3. The HF3 utilizes a CNC machined Red Oak wood housing which goes through a 2 step proprietary curing process to achieve the correct tonal balance. It has the latest version of our 44mm driver specially tuned to match perfectly with the wood housing.
The HF3 is also the first headphone to use our new wiring enclosed in a braided sheathing for improved flexibility and performance. The HF3 comes with an attractive black headband highlighted with white stitching and the Grado “L” cushion.
While listening to the HF3, the words “crisp and clean” comes to mind. There are brilliance and detail from top to bottom. In short, it’s a “Cute Grado” that sounded good and was pretty comfortable on my head.
Grado’s first open-back, Bluetooth headphones: GW100 Wireless ($249). I wasn’t only attracted to the matte black finish, but the sound as well. It has refined bass, smoothness, and is full-bodied. It doesn’t quite have the shine or focus of their other models – but I’m good with that. Definitely worth checking out.
Jonathan was kind enough to bust out the ultra rare stuff. Photos don’t do them justice.
