Grado Signature S750 Headphones: Luxury Sound for Audiophiles at $1,695

Experience the audiophile-grade sound and comfort of Grado's latest Signature S750 headphones, designed for the discerning music lover.

A New Chapter in Grado’s Signature Series

If you’re anything like me, a true music fanatic who cherishes the perfect blend of sonic clarity and comfort, the Grado Signature S750 headphones probably already has a special place in your heart. Well, the excitement just got real with the introduction of the Grado Signature S750 — the third model in this flagship lineup that promises to redefine our listening experience with its stunning sound and elegant design.

The open-back Grado Signature S750 headphones come equipped with a brand-new driver and an improved comfort profile that’s just as impressive as their audiophile-grade sound, a hallmark of this revered series.

Innovative Comfort Meets Audiophile Precision

What truly sets the S750 apart, apart from that new driver, is the fresh set of ear cushions called Grado B, now included as standard. These cushions aren’t just a minor tweak—they’ve been meticulously engineered to shrink the space between the driver and your ear, helping to channel sound precisely where it should be.

The ear cushions also feature a smaller internal opening paired with eight "carefully designed" slits that boost airflow and expand the soundstage even further. This means a more immersive listening experience that’s airy without being overwhelming. Grado also points out that the flat surface of these cushions evenly distributes pressure across your ear, reducing fatigue during those marathon listening sessions and offering a "distinct" new sensation.

Meet the Heart of the S750: The New S2 Driver

The real magic of the S750 lies in its open-back architecture and the cutting-edge S2 driver inside. This bad boy measures 50mm in diameter and blends a carbon fiber diaphragm with a paper composite, complemented by a lightweight copper and aluminum voice coil. The result? A sound that’s natural, clear, and dynamically vibrant — qualities that audiophiles crave.

Here are some specs for the tech heads out there:

• Frequency response: 6 Hz to 46 kHz
• Nominal impedance: 38 ohms
• Weight: 460 grams (more than 10% lighter than the Signature HP100 SE)

The housing is crafted from aluminum, lending the headphones both rigidity and lightness. Plus, the slightly narrower leather headband comes with denser padding, which ups the comfort quotient during extended listening.

Customizable and Ready for Your Setup

Like the other Signature models, the S750 features detachable cables for easy swapping and customization. The package includes a 6-foot gold-plated braided cable with a 6.35mm unbalanced plug, connecting via 4-pin balanced mini-XLR connectors. Grado promises more cable and connector options soon, which is music to our ears (and gear setups).

Pricing and Availability

Ready to get your ears on these beauties? The Grado Signature S750 headphones will be available starting November 2025, priced at £1,695 or $1,695—around $1,695 USD in today's market, a serious investment for serious sound lovers.

A Legacy of Excellence

For those who remember the Grado Signature HP100 SE headphones, the new S750 builds on that legacy with significant upgrades. As one review noted,

“all genius is simple,”

and Grado’s approach continues to embody that philosophy with these headphones.

If you’re hunting for the perfect marriage of sound quality and comfort, the Grado Signature S750 might just be the sonic investment your collection needs.
