Known for its unique sonic qualities, this wood gives the S950 a distinct sound signature, contrasting the analytical HP100 SE’s machined aluminium design, while staying true to Grado’s tradition of crafting class-leading wood headphones.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eMade from Brazilian walnut\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLightweight but durable, the Signature S950 is crafted from Brazilian Walnut. Weighing only 395 grams it offers a comfortable fit and reduced fatigue for those long listening sessions. The wood grain of each individually crafted housing is never identical, bringing a special one-of-kind quality to each build. Walnut, known for its density and resistance to decay, has been chosen for a relaxed musical presentation and stability. The lack of expansion and contraction due to changes in temperature or humidity helps maintain the acoustical characteristics. Brazilian Walnut is grown in the tropical rain forests of the Amazon, and sustainable practices help protect the ecosystems in the area.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eNew speaker design\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Signature S950 features Grado’s 52mm S driver, delivering high-frequency detail, smooth midrange, and powerful bass with minimal distortion.
