The Grado RS-1 headphones are the Masterpiece in the superb and world-class collection of Grado headphones. It is a stellar product, brimming with elegance in finish and sound reproduction. Featuring handcrafted Mahongany earpieces made using an intricate curing process, Grado has been able to optimize the tonal quality. The Grado RS1 headphones use dynamic transducers in an open-air configuration, the cups being open-backed. The result is a smooth, coherent sound with detailed dynamics. Frequency response ranges from 12-30 kHz and the drivers are matched to 0.05dB. Weighing 9oz, the headphones are an example of the wonder of mother nature with a gorgeous, honey-colored look.

As testament of their stellar performance, the Grado RS-1 RS1 headphones are the only product ever nominated by Stereophile for their "Product of the Year" distinction, two years in a row!

looking for turntable belt replacement

I needed a replacement for my audio Linear TD4001 turntable. It is over 40 years old and the belt is original. I haven't played it in over 20 years and just recently tried to play an LP and the belt had lost it. didn't know if I could find a replacement but surprise surprise LP tunes had a factory fresh belt! I got it in only a couple of days and just today was able to play the white album. sound was perfect for an old record. LP tunes rocks!

Better than I thought

This JICO nude elliptical stylus is super good. I replaced the stylus on my Shure M44-7 which is more of a DJ cartridge and I didn't care much for a conical/spherical one that was on it. Everyone I talked to about a change recommended the N55 for it. It was a little pricey, and usually I'll buy a new cartridge instead of chance something I'm not familiar with, but I bit the bullet and ordered the N55 from the recommendations. To my surprise, it's one of the better sounding carts I have and that's saying a lot as I use Grado and Ortofon both in MM, and a Denon MC cart. Even not broken in, I was really impressed with it. So much so, I may resurrect my on M99E that's on one of my Dual's with a Jico nude stylus. This JICO stylus I bought is on my vintage Pioneer PL 518.
