Open-Back Design

Headphones with an open-back design, allow air to pass through the earcups. This means that Open-Backs do not block any noise from around you, as closed-backs do, and music being heard will also leak outside to people around you. So they can only be heard in a quiet environment.


However, Open-back headphones do sound more natural and open. Open-back headphones create a feeling of space, presenting audio as if you are sitting at a live concert. Audiophiles swear by open-back headphones, and they sound quite different to closed-backs.


These headphones are perfect for critical listening sessions, mixing and mastering music. They have an accurate soundstage presentation and precise imaging.

EXPERIENCE THE NEXT-LEVEL SONIC PROPERTIES OF THE MAPLE INCORPORATED INTO THE HEMP

Grado Labs has always made an effort to innovate with their headphones by utilising various materials that enhance; their aesthetic appeal and affect how the sound is reproduced. With the Grado Hemp, the engineers have included maple into the housing. The hypothesis was to achieve a reduction in density without change in dynamic modulus of elasticity to obtain a sound radiation coefficient. Engineers at Grado Labs had the chance to construct using "Hemp" as part of their never-ending experimentation with various types of woods and materials. The Grado "Hemp" is one of the best-sounding Limited Editions Grado has assembled. The highly compressed hemp creates a damping effect between its fibres. This design produces a fuller sound, consisting of a noticeable low end and a top end that extends smoothly to its limits. The hemp may be doing the heavy lifting, but the hemphone is a joint effort. Engineers at Grado placed maple into the housing to help balance the sound and bring out the sonic properties maple can produce. It was necessary to tune the Grado drivers in the Hemp housings for a material that Grado had never worked with before. Being paired with maple gave them some foresight, but only through trial-and-error could Grado engineers get the speakers to sound how they wanted and bring out the potential of the "Hemp."
