Exceptional Aurai resolution, broad spectrum listening experience. 25% discount from other available Reference Series headphones in Scandinavia. Includes multiple sized connections and hard zippered case. Can accept SWISH or bank transfer. Will ship via DHL or other preferred shipping company.
At kr 5,200 SEK, this sits a bit below the RS2X’s new-price level of about kr 5,600 SEK and right around what a clean used RS2 commonly changes hands for, so it reads as fair to slightly attractive rather than a bargain. A used RS2 listed at kr 5,200 SEK is not overpriced if it’s in genuinely good shape and complete.
The RS2 is well liked for its lively, immediate Grado presentation: quick transients, forward mids, and a very engaging, intimate sound that works especially well for guitar, vocals, and small-scale acoustic music. It’s an open-back home headphone, so the real upside is sound quality over features; if pads, cable, and driver balance are healthy, this is the kind of used buy that can feel like a lot of headphone for the money.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
Grado Labs, a family-owned American audio pioneer, traces its roots to 1953 when Joseph Grado, a former watchmaker and Audio Hall of Famer, founded the company in Brooklyn, New York. Starting in his family's kitchen—once a fruit store—he and his brother John developed the world's first moving coil stereo phono cartridge, patenting it in 1959 and earning a reputation for precision engineering that propelled millions of units into recording studios and homes worldwide. Still handcrafting products in Sunset Park, Brooklyn, under third-generation leadership, Grado embodies enduring Italian-American ingenuity in high-fidelity sound.
The brand focuses primarily on phono cartridges and headphones, categories where it has defined benchmarks for decades. Early ventures included speakers, turntables, and wooden tonearms before concentrating on cartridges in 1963; by the late 1980s, Joseph Grado pioneered high-end dynamic headphones that rivaled top speaker systems in dynamics, pitch control, and bass. Today, iterative lines like the Prestige, Signature, "E," and "X" series deliver open-back designs prized for their natural timbre and detail, all assembled by hand without venturing into amplifiers, DACs, or speakers.
Grado occupies a niche boutique position in the high-end market, revered by audiophiles for its uncompromised, value-driven performance and vintage-inspired warmth. Free from corporate gloss, its handmade Brooklyn products command loyalty among discerning buyers seeking authentic vinyl playback and headphone immersion, blending collector appeal with modern relevance in an era of digital dominance.
