 Grado Labs SR-125 Review, Page One
Grado Labs has been in business for almost 50 years, and during that time they have created some astounding headphones as well as phonograph cartridges.
Grado is a very small company based out of Brooklyn, NY that caters to the audiophile market, but their products are not all just aimed at the high end.
Grado’s designs are like nothing I had ever seen before, and when I first saw them I was not impressed by the physical appearance.

 Grado Phono Preamp, FEB03 AUDIOPHILE AUDITION
Grado Labs feels they have solved the problem in the PH-1 and kept the advantages of the old methods with none of their disadvantages.
The Grado dedicated headphone amp sounded best by far with Grado headphones, and although the PH-1 sounds terrific with my non-Grado MC, I’m going to give it a run later on with Grado’s moving-magnet Reference cartridge and see if that combination is synergistic enough to wean me from several decades of moving-coildom.
According to the Grado folks the technical challenges of designing this preamp were the biggest undertaking they had ever engaged in.

 The Absolute Sound: Grado Labs and Rega Research
Grado’s hundred-and-eighty-dollar Prestige Gold cartridge has its flaws—a lack of inner detail and audible grain being chief among them (the latter brings to mind the tannic pull of a young red wine), but its strengths are such that you can easily listen through them.
Another wood-bodied product, the PH-1 is the culmination of years of work in which Grado strived to build a versatile phono preamplifier that could work equally well with both high- and low-output cartridges (from 0.4—4.5mV), with low noise, wide bandwidth, high headroom, accurate RIAA amplitude and phase coherence, and low output impedance.
Most outboard phono stages are sensitive to placement, and the Grado did hum ever so slightly until relocated well away from associated power supply transformers and system cables.

 The Grado RA
Grado Labs’ policy is not to divulge proprietary information, such as what is the heart of the Grado RA-1 amp.
That just says the Grado is more of an amplifier than the 5532 dual op amp chip, and the small value surface mount capacitors that act as its "power supply," in the headphone amplifier section of most older gear.
So, if we are going to grade the Grado RA-1, we’d have to give it points for cool looks, portability, great sound, noise-free power-supply design, bullet-proof industrial design (schemes for shielding, potting the circuitry, routing the wiring), minimalist front end design for the most-direct signal path, and a most-excellent price/performance ratio.

 Grado RS1 Reviews
It is amazing that a small business like Grado Labs can develope and manufacture a world class headphone that can complete against the best (e.g.-Stax, Sony, Sennheiser, and etc.).
The whole series of Grado's headphones have respectively earned the right to be consider by many as the best headphones ever made by man. One can only imagine what the audio world would be like if John Grado's had the research and development funding of Sony!
Also the Senn's out the box are more comfortable but after careful adjustment of the Grado's you can wear for hours (I have even played many a PC game using the headphones to help burn them in).

But we had a somewhat limited window this year, courtesy at the front end of a sweaty, fruitless search around Sunset Park for legendary headphone manufacturer Grado Labs.
In theory, one can flit from stage to stage, either via the boardwalk or Surf Avenue, and grab a beer between sets, since the appearances are staggered, and several of the bands are limited to 25-minute sets.

 Untitled Document
Our new Grado Phono Preamp, model PH-1, represents the most successful solution to one of the most complex technical challenges in the field of audio that Grado Labs has ever tackled.
Phono stage gain is frequency dependent with the result of too little feedback at the low end and too much at the high end.
Our design goals were for a truly superb sounding phono preamp to work equally well with both low and high output cartridges with negligible noise.
