Comfort tip for the stock pads: bend the headband so the pads are hardly exerting any force on your ears. If they’re pushing on your ears they’re miserable. Don’t worry about the headband, you won’t hurt it and that’s how you make Grados fit. If they still hurt then yeah, get some bigger pads; I have both but I prefer the sound of the stock pads. Love these things!
I recently got the grado hemp. I cant really say why but I like them more than the 6xx, Sundara, Zeus, DT 1990 or 560s. But on the other hand I dont know if I would recommend them without hesitation. Its a headphone you have to try yourself to know if you will like it or not.
It's cause it's a Grado. There is no other headphone brand on the planet with that midrange energy for guitars, vocals, woodwinds etc. Not Sundara, not Arya, certainly not the 6XX/600. Those all sound almost robotic in comparison. Grado is like a crunchy old JBL floor standing speakers hooked up to a good turntable. There's an energy to the sound no other brand can touch, and that includes their cheapest right up to the most expensive. It makes other headphones sound sterile.
Love them. Soon I'm going to be sending mine to a redditor who customized grados. Going to get a detachable cable mod done. I think they'll be nearly perfect for me then.
Great recommendation on pads! 2 months into owning a pair, and I find I've hardly touched my Sen HD6xx, Sundara, RS1e or even Focal Utopia Cans. The Sens or Focals might have these beat technically in some (or perhaps many ways), but these are probably the most fun, engaging, and musically entertaining cans I've ever tried*. More importantly they lose very little against a NAIM Unit Atom Headphone when powered by an AQ dragonfly from a cellphone, and although they lose a bit more un-amped straight out of an old Lenovo tablet, they're still great to listen to. * Apart from some Jazz, the big pads are really required in order to prevent listening fatigue and enjoy just about anything except "lounge jazz" for any length of time.
They are a modified version of the G cushion actually, the original Grado G Cushion on the GS and PS line is much more Bowl shaped, they place the ear quite far form the driver, this kills all bass on non-GS/PS headphones.
@@albertxion513 Definitely cheaper (aliexpress has them for $5) and better, I tried the Originals and I can't recommend them. I currently use shipibo pads and like them much more than the geekeria, they cost more though.
I purchased the Hemp back in December last year. You're right about the included pads (they're called F-cushions). They are thin and uncomfortable and destroy the soundstage. All you get is a wall of two-dimensional sound. As a side note, the recently-released X-driver series of the Prestige line has these thin pads as standard. I really don't understand that move at all. Like you, I did purchase the Geekria "G-cush" pads and they really do improve the sound quite substantially but to my ears, it really emphasizes the upper bass/lower midrange to the point that, depending on the track, muddies up the sound and subdues the highs more than I want (yeah, I'm a treble head). I then purchased the Geekria "L-cush" pads which were the standard pads for years on most of their offerings. It fits nicely between the wafer-thin F-cush and larger G-cush pads. They don't have the bass presence of the larger G-cush pads but they really bring back all of that glorious soundstage and clarity that makes Grados so addicting, assuming you like the Grado sound which could be considered an acquired taste. Also, another side note - I noticed that your sample has the white stitching on the headband. The ones I purchased late last year have black stitching. Not an issue really but since the new Prestige line has white stitching too (to denote its new drivers perhaps), I wonder if the drivers in the Hemp are updated. I'm sure they're not...but still.
I personally love the hemps (with the geekria pads) far far more than the Sundaras, where the hemps really feels like a true hifi experience that's just a joy to listen to. It helps me ignore how garbage the undetachable cables are 🙂
I occasionally use my RS1X with g-cushions for gaming - modmic stuck next to where cable attaches. While I tend to agree with Crin that it won't make me any better it is if nothing else an enjoyable experience.
Got the hemp. Got ALL the pads imaginable. Yes, the soundstage gets ridiculous with the G Cush. But they also introduce sibilance, suck out the mids and remove body from the bass. The tonal balance on the stock pads is excellent to me. L Cush are a nice compromise I wish more reviewers would try out.
Have you tried the TTVJ Audio pads, many like the improved texture vs the F pads and they have the same sound and shape. I find the shipibo audio pads work best for me, sound and comfort wise. I've tried Original F, G and L pads, aftermarket S, G Cush, L and S pads.
Geekria pads are surprisingly good. I put the Grado ones on my KPH30is (bowl and non-bowl ones) and I use their Sennheiser 598/599 series ones which I like better than the Sennheiser stock pads. I really like the "lamy velvet" pads for the 599.. whatever the hell lamy velvet is. I'm hoping Geekria starts making Beyer pads.
I usually like your reviews, but reviewing headphones with low quality pads that ruins the sound...i don't get it. I agree that the stock pad gets painful on the ears but the G pad you're using are the worst thing you can do to the Hemp, it kills the sub bass and all the punchy sound the Hemp is now famous for. I prefer to suffer and enjoy a good sound.
Have the Hemp. Stock F pads are terrible. Bought the Grado G pads, big. Sounds better. Just bought the L pads. Sounds more balance and comfortable as on ear type....
Nice review. I have the Hemp as well and a few other Grado's. I also have the Focal Radiance to cover any bass cravings. I totally agree with you on the pads, the stock F pads are horrible, comfort is terrible. I use the same flat G pads from geekeria, except i buy mine on aliexpress since they are very common. About a month ago I bought pads from shipibo dot audio, these make the Hemp and other Graso's much more comfy and give them a slight bass boost which they can use. I use them also on my RS2e and PS500e and the improvement is there as well. At the same time I also swapped out the plastic rod block and gimbals for their slim aluminum sets, these also help with comfort as they change the angle the cups and pads sit on the head (less pressure above the ear). How do you compare the Hemp to the RS2e and RS1e you tried in a previous review?
@@newkid7 Hi I was surprised how different they actually are. I already had the Black SR325, GH3, RS2e and Hemp when I saw a deal on the PS500e and picked them up. My listening is all done using shipibo pads (I bough 2 sets). The simplest way to put it is, the PS500e has a fuller sound across the frequency range, it goes deeper but has less midrange emphasis vs the Hemp, on the Hemp I hear the guitar and vocals more forward and they seem to have more energy vs the PS500e, PS500e has a smoother overall sound delivery with bit more mid bass, but what bass the Hemp gives you has a more dynamic delivery. I listen mainly to Rock, Rumba and female rock (AC/DC, The Tragically Hip, Boston, Sarah McLachlan, Norah Jones, and Acoustic guitar Jesse Cook and Ottamar Lieber), that said the Hemp seems to come into its own when you turn them up, the louder they play, the more you like them. Switching back to back a few times, the 1st few minutes, I find the PS500e has more presence, going to the Hemp something seems missing (low end), after a few tracks just listening to the music, you forget all that. If you enjoy hearing the star of the show, guitar, highs and vocals, then the Hemp has just the right emphasis on them to enjoy. If you want a full sound, with the stars a bit more recessed in the mix, then the PS500e is a better choice. I'm planning to keep both, I pick the one I'm in the mood for teach day and stick with it. So is it an upgrade, probably not, does it offer something special in a Grado coloring, yes. Just make sure you break them in for a good 30hrs before deciding if you like them or not. And try some different pads, pads change the tuning of the PS500e and Hemp, all Grado's so much, its like a different headphone. Pads cost less than more headphones.
@@BuzzinhornetCBR Thank you so much for the reply! Everyone seems to like the Hemp, but nowhere for me to audition in my city. I previously owned Sr225e, GH3, I enjoy most Grados expect black lable, white, I even enjoy and own their bluetooth GW100, they're very musical. Lately I found my Ps500e sub bass struggling with my Zen Dac, never have I noticed it's lacking before, but still very engaging sound. Do you think Focal headphones are as musical as Grados?
It's kind of a head scratcher that Grado has not yet partnered with a pad maker to make bigger and better pads for their headphones. The stock pads just flat out suck. Besides bad comfort... the non detachable cable is a dealbreaker with the Grado's
The hilarious thing about those pads is they're actually clones of grado's own GS1000 pads. So grado already has these pads, and yet they still don't ship them out as standard. Why, grado? Why?
Because they're not the same as the G cush Grado sells, and they do not sound the same. These introduce a massive mid bass bump, while Grado ones do not, and result in a completely different sound signature Plus, Grado prefers the Hemps with the flat pads. The Geekria pads are just a trend Zeos started, they're not objectively better
Because the Hemp tonal balance is largely due to F pad. Put a Geekria or Grado L cush and you're back into conventional Grado territory. I really like my Hemps, but they're a mile from accuracy. I prefer Sundara and LCD-X for the music I prefer, rock , EDM etc.
@@steviesteve750 true, pads are a pretty significant aspect of the tuning in any headphone. But still, in terms of comfort alone the majority of people seem to prefer the larger pads, so there wouldn't be anything stopping grado from working on variations of that style that offer different tunings. Then again, this is grado, and they're not the kind of company to submit to consumer demand, as is evidenced by the new X series still not having detachable cables.
Grado recently announced a revision to their entire Prestige series and one of the changes is that they will all have the same flat pads as the Hemp. No more L pads. It would seem that a year of rave reviews/product of the year awards for the Hemp may have influenced that decision.
The brand new SR125X is the best headphone I've ever heard under $1500. And thats not even the 225X or the 325X. It's an absolute pleasure to listen to whatever tuning they did on these new drivers is great. They make any planar under the Arya or sound metallic and off. It destroys the 6XX and Sundara. Only the Audezes sound nice with their warmer sound. If youre gonna buy the 6XX, get a SR225X and those bowl pads or the TTVJ Flat Pad. You get a Hemp and LCD Classic and it's game over. End game. For what? $1200 total? End Game. Unless you want to spend $5000 or whatever on that Abyss.
There's a thread on hifiguides which discusses the Purple Yaxi on the Hemp. Have a look. The theater didnt like them so much until he put a hole.in them.
It looks like it cost $4.20 in build quality, like HiFi man, which is a deal breaker for me, I'm a bit rough and tumble with 'phones and tend to leave 'em in unsavory areas, so I need high build quality.
@@soulfulfool I'm trying not to sleep on my Senn 560's but it's touch and go. They sound quite nice as well. It's 99% my Hi Fi these days, I'm such a caution.
wtf dude you clearly havent heard them . they might not have the deepest subbass (gets much better with g pads but not my point)compared to other headphones but EVERYTHING ELSE is probably the best you can find in the 0- infinity price market
Absolute bullshit! These hemps work with all genres. Metal and EDM sound fine with these. The way you describe these, maybe your set is faulty or your ears are out if whack. These are great headphones. Treble is great and not sibilant
My ears are always demanding haha. But yes, it's a bit of a philosophical play on words - at least within the question of what counts for perception and the locatedness of that perception. Properly speaking, ears don't 'want' anything, nor do they perceive anything. People do. It's just common to colloquially speak as if the proprioceptive device (like an ear) is doing the perceiving.
IME grado can't be recommended for their technology, their gear barely competes in the market... I had their gold phono cartridge, stock sounded better.
Can we just admit Grados smell the best out of the box? Whatever cancerous chemical they spray on the pads and the box foam is magnificent
right?!
It’s probably because you’re getting high!? 😂
Is it just me, or the camera, or has Andrew lost quite a bit of weight recently? Looking good bro! Great review.

I believe the OEM name for what Geekria is copying here is just known as "G Cush" pads
You're a G Cush. Get over here you big lug

Resolve, you can adjust the tension of headband to make them fit more comfortably.
Most people just bend them slightly to fit their head.
