Headphones



$1650





The majority of headphones have limited capabilities to reproduce the traditional speaker experience. Or to be tuned to the listener's preferences. Our headphones are designed like a ported speaker with the ability to adjust the tonality and bass response. This makes them perfect for jazz lovers, classical music enthusiasts, and vocalist aficionados looking for an in-depth listening experience.

The design starts with a custom 55 by 60mm walnut cup from Shipibo Audio. Walnut was chosen for its fairly neutral sonic presentation.

Ported wood discs set the tonality. Cherry wood is a mid to brighter presentation. Rosewood is a mid to darker presentation. Each wood comes in two port sizes which provide differing amounts of back pressure on the driver.

The flexible 3D printed pads are shaped like a speaker cone. This shape and flexible construction provides the optimal expansion of the sound wave. The inclusion of port holes, in the pad, and port plugs allows for the adjustment of air pressure. Inserting a yellow plug increases the sound pressure thereby greatly altering the bass response.

The pads can be printed in 64, 69, and 74mm ear opening sizes to accommodate differing ear coverage preferences. If further adjustment is required, the acoustical properties of the pad can be altered through the 3D printing process.

Topping the 3D pad is rubber ring. This is the most hygienic choice since it can be easily cleaned. Rings of different materials can be purchased for the cost of the rings.

The adjustment blocks are 3D printed and use friction fit rubber rings to control the movement of the cup. This allows for the exact placement of the cup for optimal sound reproduction without the need for tools.

The headphone cable is constructed in-house from Mogami Be Quiet cable with a locking 3.5mm connector on the cup side. The standard length is 5.5 feet, longer lengths can be ordered. The standard connectors are 1/8" and 1/4".

" What he has here is something I’ve wanted for my entire audio journey. That one headphone that is so close to a myth that nobody has made for us who need a great imaging experience, but also an amazing low end. It is a woodie and its gorgeous, a real head-turner."
