Acoustically Invisible

Stealth Magnets

The advanced magnet design featured in the
Edition XS is acoustically transparent, dramatically
reducing wave diffraction turbulence that typically
degrades the integrity of the sound waves. The
result is reduced distortion, yielding a purer, more
harmonious sound that is demonstrably better
than previous designs.
Unlike the sound waves that
are created by conventional
magnets, the unique shape
of stealth magnets enable
soundwaves to pass through
the magnet without gener-
ating interference.

Degradation of sound quality
in a conventional planar mag-
netic headphone is caused
by the magnets getting in the
way of the sound wave.
The same happens in con-
ventional electrostatic head-
phones, where the degradation
of sound quality is caused by the
stator's interference.
A conventional dynamic driver' s frequency
response can be altered due to distortions
and vibrations across the diaphragm surface.
