PATENTED ISODYNAMIC HYBRID ARRAY TECHNOLOGY
One of the most sophisticated and advanced planar magnetic technologies in the world.
ARCHITECTURE OF THE
ISODYNAMIC HYBRID ARRAY DRIVER®
The MZ3SE driver builds on the pioneering technology of the flagship MZ3 driver found in the Empyrean headphones. Innovative Isodynamic Hybrid Array technology delivers more selective acoustic performance to different areas within the ear structure. Advances in diaphragm materials have opened the door to even higher resolution and accuracy of sound reproduction, setting a new benchmark in headphone design.
RINARO PARUS®
A NEW LOW MASS MEMBRANE MATERIAL
The new driver behind the ELITE features Rinaro Parus®, an innovative low-mass acoustic diaphragm constructed from an ultra-thin, biaxially oriented semi-crystalline polymer film. This, combined with Isodynamic Hybrid Array Driver technology, allows sound waves to flow freely past the ears and out, producing natural sound clarity and a wide, articulated soundstage. This results in improved definition and speed across the entire frequency range.
The polymer is produced using a custom-designed sequential biaxial stretching technology, a process that involves stretching the polymer in transverse directions at elevated temperatures to improve structural performance. This results in a complex semi-crystalline microstructure that develops in the material, exhibiting remarkable strength, stiffness and stability, combined with extremely low acoustic mass.
This solves a common problem with conventional planar magnetic arrays whereby reflected signals enter the ear canal with different time delays, thereby worsening the focus of 3D sound imaging.
The use of dual coil arrays not only creates a balanced frequency response around the whole range, it also allows for better frequency targeting within different areas of the ear, improving acoustical perception on the upper frequency range.
SWITCHBACK COIL
The switchback coil is more efficient at reproducing lower frequencies and is positioned in the upper part of the driver.
SPIRAL COIL
The spiral coil is more efficient at reproducing middle-high frequencies and is positioned directly over the ear canal, enabling more direct sound waves to enter the ear without any time delays.
A significant increase in direct sound waves can be achieved by placing the most efficient part of the diaphragm in the mid-high frequencies directly above the ear canal, resulting in improved 3D imaging and spatial localization.
Ferromagnetic earcups reduce stray magnetic fields hitting the listener's head by 95%.
Invisible locking system
Innovative use of the drivers' magnetic field to keep the earcups in place
12% increase in driver power
Patented ferromagnetic plates channel the magnetic field into the driver increasing power by 1db or 12%
01. ALCANTARA®
This is the well-known 30mm deep Alcantara® earcup originally developed for the Empyrean headphones in 2018.
02. HYBRID (Perforated Alcantara® interior + Genuine leather exterior)
With a soft yet durable outer finish, the HYBRID ear cushions are a new addition to our ear cushion family that perfectly balances the qualities of Alcantara® and leather in one design. In addition to high comfort, this unique combination reduces bass pressure and delivers an airy sound signature, where sound waves seem to transcend the space around you to create an immersive experience.
