Summary of Contents for Sony Qualia 010

  • Page 3 Dedicated to invention and reinvention, QUALIAT not only embraces change, we anticipate it, we foster it, we create it. As digital audio technology has progressed at a tremendous pace over the last decade, our engineers set out to create a way to not just fulfill the promise of this new technology, but a way to be truly transported by sound – a way to enjoy a new listening experience.
  • Page 4 PURE SOUND / A reinvention of the hi-fi headphones concept, QUALIA 010 was designed to deliver the highest quality audio reproduction, including Super Audio CD and DVD-A. The result of a no-compromise approach, the design employs a range of new technologies. From its transverse pressed neodymium magnet to its porous cellulose baffles, QUALIA 010 is the first single-driver headphone system capable of reproducing the full frequency range of today’s most advanced audio sources.
  • Page 5 setting, the base fully recharges QUALIA 017 in 3.5 hours. REMOTE CONTROL (c) Easily accessible for use while in motion, the intuitively designed remote offers a full range of controls, including play, rewind, pause, forward and reverse track skip, scan, and volume. EARPHONES (d) Carved from solid brass and aluminum, these instruments create a rich acoustic space, with detailed treble and full, rounded bass.
  • Page 7 Transverse Neodymium Magnet Frame The diaphragm of QUALIA 010 is composed of nano-ordered silica particles, providing the high strength needed for wide frequency response. NANO-COMPOSITE DIAPHRAGM / QUALIA 010 achieves extraordinary tonal quality. Bass and midrange display great definition, depth and harmonic content, and the over- all frequency response reaches up to an astonishing 120kHz.
  • Page 8 Of course, the more powerful the magnet, typically the larger it is. The design concept of QUALIA 010, however, was to deliver a superior frequency range in extremely lightweight headphones. In order to accomplish this, we employ a system known as transverse magnetic field pressing. Rather than being composed of a single piece, the material is created in four sections and then combined into a single unit.
  • Page 11 POROUS BAFFLE / In order to reduce resonance (or the “sea shell” effect, a common artifact with headphone systems), rather than employing a solid barrier which keeps air within the speaker chamber, QUALIA 010 employs a porous baffle, so airflow and resistance are consistently managed. This provides an optimum listening environment in which ear fatigue is significantly reduced and the user experiences no distracting noise, only music.
  • Page 13 PURE COMFORT / In order to create the optimum listening environment, QUALIA 010 was designed for exceptional comfort. The headphones feature an extraordinarily strong and lightweight magnesium-alloy frame. The wide headband disperses the weight of the headphones across a wider area of the user’s head. And the ear pads are made of soft, supple, natural sheepskin, ensuring that your ears fit comfortably inside.
