Audeze CRBN2
CRBN2 also represents a step forward for Audeze’s electrostatic headphone technology, and at its core lies Audeze’s second-generation carbon-nanotube electrostatic driver, which has been meticulously engineered for exceptional sound fidelity. Integrated for the first time in CRBN2, the new SLAM technology is designed to optimize air pressure distribution across the driver, enhancing low-frequency performance without increasing distortion. This results in a headphone that delivers powerful, lifelike bass response and rich, holographic spatial imaging—qualities that set CRBN2 apart in the realm of high-end audio. The CRBN line originated from a project with Prof. Mark S. Cohen, Ph.D., and his team at the UCLA School of Medicine to create headphones for use in MRI machines. The powerful magnetic fields in MRI machines required a unique, non-ferrous driver design, leading to the development of the carbon-nanotube film-based electrostatic driver. This groundbreaking technology has be
