Hardened Spring Steel Headband for Grado
Meet Bruce Spring Steel, an exceptional upgrade for your Grado headphones. Precision-cut from high-quality spring steel, this headband is designed to closely match the dimensions of the stock Grado steel bands while offering superior performance.
Compatibility: Full list of Grado headphones compatible with this headband is on the side of this description.
Why It's Different:
- Enhanced Clamping Force: Unlike standard Grado bands, Bruce Spring Steel is acclaimed for its improved clamping force. This enhancement isn't just subtle; it transforms the fit and helps with the sound quality, as noted by my satisfied customers.
- Maintains Shape: The hardening process makes it remarkably springy, retaining its shape while allowing you to adjust the clamping force to your preference. To do this, simply bend it inwards or outwards. I'll be happy to help if you need more detailed instructions.
- Fully Compatible: It fits all Grado headbands and rodblocks, with holes on each end for secure attachment to my aluminum rodblocks.
Customer Testimonials: My customers report that Bruce Spring Steel ;) is a game-changer, offering one of the best and easiest upgrades to Grado headphones. It's not just a replacement; it's an upgrade that significantly enhances adjustability and comfort.
Quality Assurance: As with all my products, this is a 100% made in EU item, handcrafted in my workshop. Each band is carefully checked and tested before shipping. Please note, as a DIY product, each band is unique and may have minor imperfections, which do not affect performance. Your satisfaction is my top priority, and I'm always available to discuss any aspect of your purchase.

Since Nyczaj is a one man operation, my shipping policy is slightly different to regular online stores. I perform a lot of work on our products after the order is placed – I either make them to order completely from scratch, assemble them, finish them off or quality test them. Because of that it can take us up to 2-3 weeks after the order is placed to ship it.
In addition to registered mail shipping I also offer express shipping to most of the countries. If you live outside Europe, I recommend choosing express shipping as it is much faster and more reliable than mail.
If express shipping is not available to your country, I can arrange an express shipping via courier service on demand, such service will be priced individually – if you’re interested in this, please contact me before placing an order at info@nyczaj.audio or via the contact form at the bottom of nyczaj.audio website.
Nyczaj won’t consider any parcels lost until it is officially confirmed either by Poczta Polska or a postal service in the destination country, and thus won’t resend or refund any orders before that.
Reviews
This is not a like-for-like replacement - its stiffness makes it superior to an original Grado band, and in my experience much improves clamping force. There is nothing subtle with the improvement on sound quality, improved clamping is like night-and-day. This makes for a very significant upgrade to OEM or custom Grado headphones, and for the price Przem is charging, these bands really are a no-brainer. I'm running quite a few pairs of headphones and they're all getting a Nyczaj band.
As said by Przem himself, this steel spring headband is a great alternative for the stock headband. I like to keep my stock Grado headband original, so when upgrading the gimbals, this spring steel headband is a no-brainer for me. Przem now sells it as a package deal. Even more easy to order…
