Breakthrough Electrostatic Technology With the biggest technological advance of electrostatics in decades, Audeze has patented a new polymer film with carbon nanotubes, and eliminates the problems of older designs with laminations and vacuum deposition. Originally developed for a product we designed for hospital MRI machines, our new CRBN (pronounced “Carbon”) electrostatic headphones are a superior solution. And yes, our new patented tech can be used in full-range speakers. Patent-pending carbon nanotube film Works with all 580 Volt Pro Bias amplifiers Accurate low frequency performance Excellent dynamic range Lightweight and very comfortable Designed with Purpose Audeze originally developed this new technology working with Prof. Mark S. Cohen Ph.D., UCLA School of Medicine and his team, for use in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Typical ferrous metals could not be used, so we had to develop a new material, and that led us to patent a special thin film with suspended carbon nanotubes. This solves the problems associated with lamination and deposition on the film. Carbon Nanotube Technology The CRBN driver includes a revolutionary ultra-thin diaphragm with carbon nanotubes suspended inside the material. Because the charge is distributed throughout the film, this results in a uniform driving force that reduces distortion and improves clarity, resolution and transparency. Supreme Comfort CRBN offers supreme comfort with its lightweight construction. At 300 grams, the minimalist design features materials such as magnesium and carbon fiber, which shaves off every gram while maintaining strength. The earpads are extra plush and slightly oversized, for a great seal and pillow-soft, cranium-cradling comfort. Elegant Design CRBN is the ultimate in luxurious design, from the smooth curves of its uniquely etched grill, to the depth of its finely polished acetate rings. Featuring hand-stitched premium leather, every detail has been fine-tuned, all the way down to the feel of the machined aluminum 5-pin connector. 580 Volt Compatibility CRBN is compatible with “Stax Pro Bias” 580 Volt amplifiers such those from Woo Audio, Linear Tube Audio, Mjolnir Audio, Headamp, Stax (of course) and others. The cable is terminated with the industry standard 5-pin barrel connector for maximum compatibility. Electrostatic amps for CRBN STAX SRM-700S (or T) or almost any Stax amp including the portable SRM-D10 iFi Pro iESL, this is a convertor that works with regular power amps, but supplies the 580 volt bias needed for electrostatics Woo Audio 3ES, GES, and WES, compatible with STAX Pro Bias Specifications Style Over-ear, open-back Transducer type Push-pull electrostatic Functional bias voltage 580 VDC Stax Pro Bias Electrostatic capacitance 100 pF (including cable) Diaphragm type Ultra-thin custom carbon nanotube Transducer size 120mm x 90mm Frequency response 20Hz - 40kHz Maximum SPL >120dB THD <0.1% @ 90dB Attached cable 2.5m OCC monocrystal copper, 5-pin Pro Bias Housing Magnesium, stainless steel and polymer acetate Earpad material Premium leather Headband Carbon fiber and premium leather Weight 300g   Includes : CRBN Headphone | Premium Aluminum Travel Case | Certificate of Authenticity
