Japanese audio manufacturer S’NEXT (CEO Mitsuru Hosoo) will release the new products from its in-house brand final – the planar magnetic headphones
D8000 Pro Edition – on August 22.
D8000 (released in November 2017) which achieved sound quality that has both the sensitive high ranges of planar magnetic models and the volume and open feel bass has become a best-selling product in its price range.
The
D8000 Pro Edition is a new product that leaves the delicate sound quality of the
D8000 intact and has undergone retuning of driver units which adopt the Air Film Damping System (AFDS) in accordance with actual use for professional sound recordings upon the request of recording engineers who wish to listen at louder sound volumes than ordinary consumers. As a result of the new tuning, which takes into consideration the human auditory characteristic by which low frequency range becomes easier to hear as volume increases, the D8000 Pro Edition provides sound quality perceived to be of higher clarity when listening to rock, pops and other selections featuring a narrow dynamic range in contrast to the D8000, which is suitable particularly for classical music and other selections that feature a wide dynamic range. The following figure shows the difference in sound quality tendencies between the D8000 and the D8000 Pro Edition.
For the ear pads, close attention has been paid to good feeling texture and longevity. Toray Ultrasuede® has been used for parts that come in contact with the human skin. Exclusive convenient to carry headphones case and 2 types of detachable cable, OFC black cable (3.5mm/1.5m) and OFC silver coat cable (6.3mm/3m) are included as accessories.
There are 2 Color variations: BLACK and SILVER.
We also will release
