I myself have three Grado headphones that use hemp. I have had no issues at all but a little oil for any of the woodies is a good idea. I use a product called Ballistol that works great on wood, metal and many other materials. Any oil that works for wood should be fine. Teak oil would be a top choice also. A little bit of oil applied and rubbed into the wood using your fingers.
I was under the impression that hemp was more like plastic than wood, if I understand properly the way they bond hemp to make it wood is by using a polymer.This oil is apparently called Livos oil.
I’m supposed to apply a couple drops with a cotton cloth, rub it in, rub away an excess, and then apply a second coat 12 hours later.
Thank you very much! Very helpful.I measured it a while ago: on the RS-1x, from the earcup to the base of the headphone jack was 66”.
Those xrcd releases are amazing. The best imo.I must have a dozen Lee Morgan albums . . . but not that one.
Certainly true for me.And yes, If you like Grado you will love DT1770.
This is a superb sounding Grado Hemp Phone. Addictive even.… “goodie, goodie, gumdrops”…
It depends on the specific version, some people claim certain old models are better. But they are kind of collectible. Unless you are trying to get something very specific I would stick to the new models.Are old sr80 worth more than new ones?
Many ask for over 100$ for old/worn 80’s
