Features Planar magnetic drivers for better dynamics and frequency response Premium faux leather for style and durability Sleek contemporary design by DesignWorksUSA a BMW group company Light weight and folds flat for ultimate portability { "__shgImageElements": { "uuid": "s-3312ba4c-4cd0-4fa3-9195-3fa39caa92af" } } Exclusive EL-8 planar magnetic technology Acoustically engineered for accuracyAudeze’s innovative planar magnetic technology delivers astonishingly clear and accurate sound. Diaphragms thinner than a human hairWe use space-age materials in a near weightless diaphragm that’s three times larger than typical headphones for fast response times, dramatically reduced distortion, higher resolution and improved imaging. Near zero distortionPatented Uniforce™ voice-coil technology delivers a uniform driving force across the entire diaphragm for near zero distortion. Nearly double the magnetic driving forcePatented Fluxor™ Magnet Arrays focus the magnetic flux nearly doubling the power driving the diaphragm for even lower distortion and greater accuracy. Internal soundwavesPatented Fazor™ Elements guide internal headphone soundwaves to avoid resonance producing a more accurate waveform.
