The Grado GS1000 is a high-end headphone from Grado Labs. The first and only circum-aural headphone from Grado - a great plus for those who feel the comfort of the series is lacking - the GS-1000 also differs from the Reference and Prestige series with a vastly differrent sound signature and expanded sound stage - also thanks to the large salad bowl pads.

Released August, 2008

- like the D-5000 can be found much cheaper than official MSRP

- may still be poorly put together much like the AH-D5000
- Still non-suiteble for classical and acoustic music. Despite of having more tremble and providing larger stage, than AH-D5000, it's still lack of it in comparison with Audio-Technica ATH-W5000.
