Avantone Pro Planar Reference-Grade Headphones
Avantone Pro has released the Planar reference-grade open-back headphones , designed to provide the comfort and sonic detail needed by engineers and musicians for long studio sessions .
The headphones feature Avantone Pro ’ s planar drivers , which improve accuracy , high-end detail , clarity , natural bass , and response time . Traditional moving coil drivers use a magnetic field to push / pull the driver in one direction and rely on the surround ’ s elasticity to return the driver to the neutral position . Planar drivers utilize a technology that mixes principles between dynamic and electrostatic drivers — they are constructed by a precise array of magnets that are evenly spaced across both sides of a thin , electrically-active diaphragm . The company says that due to the nature of this magnetic field ’ s precision , force applied to the membrane is distributed in a symmetric fashion , which produces a signal with very little harmonic distortion and faster response times . And because planars use front and rear magnets to apply equal force in both directions , there is less weight applied to the driver material , which results in a more natural sound with less distortion . As well , the open-back design , combined with a finely-tuned chamber , results in a very flat-frequency environment , without the typical pressure build-up , acoustic resonance , and frequency curve of closed-back headphones .
