HEMP keeps the warm and enchanting mid and vocal of RS1e, but do have much better bass and a little bit more high.

that's probably the flat pad effect, have you tried flat pad on rs1e?

I have tried that with the RS1e and it doesn't sound very good. When the drivers are voiced to work with bowl pads, the flats tend to make the sound overly warm and dark. The Hemp drivers have obviously been tuned for flats so I'd expect them to sound thin with lightweight bass if bowls were used in place of flats.

No markings at all! I thought the hemp plant was just a little over the top though!
very clean looks! without any markings, people who doesn't have any idea about the hemp grado would have thought that's a very cool looking diy grado. very interesting :D

I don’t like the buttons, they look kind of cheap.
