Hi All

Sorry to drag up this old thread but could someone help me date my pair of RS-1s.

This is my pair, are these from the first batch after the Vintage (Brown Band/Wooden Box)

They have no serial number and the pads were glued to the wood

Thanks

If your's came in the box they are resting on in the pics, they are definitely not semi-vintage and certainly not from the first batch after the true vintage. The only thing I would classify as semi-vintage is the batch that came right after the one's in the wooden box. At that time they still had the brown headband, but they came in a white traditional cardboard style box similar to the box that the HP-1000's came in.

I would venture to guess somewhere between 2000-03, but I'm not positive.

I can't recall if this was ever answered in Zanth's "Interview with John Grado" thread.

as I stated on page one of this thread - mine are year 2001, #1106..........so you might guess the first #'s would be 1999.
