- New S2 driver for even more sonic subtlety
- New Grado B pad for improved comfort and acoustic performance
- Light and comfortable for long listening
Grado makes some of the best wired headphones (and as our Grado SR80x review proves, they don’t always have to drain your wallet), though its Signature models are both incredibly attractive over-ears. And now there is a third model in the Signature series, the Grado S750.
The main features here are a newly developed 50mm driver and an all-new ear cushion design, both made with improved sound in mind. And there are a host of improvements that should make these even more comfortable than their predecessors.
Grado Signature S750: key features and pricing
The S2 driver has been redesigned with a carbon fiber and paper composite diaphragm and a lightweight copper-aluminum coil. The headphones have a nominal impedance of 38 ohms and deliver a frequency range from low 6Hz to airy 46kHz.
In addition to the newly developed driver, there are also new ear pads, and their design is not only about comfort. They shorten the distance between your ear and the drivers and have eight precision-cut slots to improve airflow and open up the soundstage. Grado says they deliver a “distinctly new feel” and reduce fatigue during longer listening sessions.
The new cushions come as standard on the S750, but you will also be able to purchase them separately. They are compatible with all current Grado wired headphones.
The S750 are lighter than their predecessors, coming in at 460g – 10% lighter than the HP100 SE – and they have a slightly narrower but more deeply padded leather headband. The construction is aluminum and, as with other Signatures, the cables are removable.
The S750 cable is a six-foot gold-braided cable that connects via 4-pin balanced mini XLR and terminates in a 6.35mm single-ended plug. Grado will soon release more cables and offer more terminator options.
The Grado Signature S750 headphones will be available from November 2025, priced at $1,695 / £1,695 (roughly AU$3,470).
