What is it?

The GS3000e is the finest wooden headphone Grado Labs has built to date. Using
Cocobolo for the first time in a large-body housing, this Grado has some of
the richest sound we’ve ever produced.

Cocobolo is found in Central America, and just like the music there, is
teeming with texture and emotion. What was discovered from using this wood in
the GH2 and the flagship phono cartridge siblings, the Epoch and Aeon, has
been brought over to the Statement Series process for the first time. This is
the fullest single body of Cocobolo we have ever built, and the GS3000e is the
perfect fit for it.

Being the first Statement Series headphone to use Cocobolo, we carefully tuned
our 50mm signature drivers to not only take advantage of the larger
soundstage, but to also embrace the deep and impactful musical character of
this unique wood. Cocobolo continues to be one of the family’s favorite woods
to work with.

How does it work?

Visually defined by large cocobolo wood housings, the Grado Statement Series
GS3000e are over-ear headphones designed to communicate a large soundstage and
wideband frequency reproduction for audiophiles and music enthusiasts in
homes, listening rooms, and acoustically controlled environments. The open-
back design reduces internal resonance and reflections to enhance
transparency. The 50mm dynamic drivers are matched to 0.05 dB and produce a
wide frequency response of 4 Hz to 51 kHz. With a 32-Ohm impedance, the
GS3000e headphones are well-suited for use with mobile devices as well as
dedicated headphone amplifiers.
