Audio enthusiasts and professionals alike have reason to celebrate as Audeze introduces the CRBN2, their most advanced electrostatic headphones to date. This groundbreaking model pairs second-generation carbon-nanotube electrostatic drivers with innovative technologies designed to elevate the auditory experience, promising unmatched sound fidelity and clarity.

At the heart of the CRBN2 is an advanced driver technology that pushes the limits of electrostatic audio. Audeze’s patented carbon nanotube-embedded driver film, produced in-house, offers precise control over the electrostatic force acting on the diaphragm, which contributes to the headphones’ extraordinary sound accuracy. This is complemented by Audeze’s unique Symmetric Linear Acoustic Modulator (SLAM) technology, which specifically enhances bass frequencies while minimizing distortion. SLAM maintains optimal pressure distribution on the diaphragm, allowing for the most powerful and tactile bass response available in electrostatic headphones, while also providing vividly holographic spatial imaging.

Only premium materials

The CRBN2 is designed not only for high performance but also for luxury. Constructed from premium materials, each pair features a blend of magnesium, carbon fiber, stainless steel, and polymer acetate, culminating in a product that is as aesthetically pleasing as it is functional. The earpads are crafted from luxurious leather, and the headband combines carbon fiber and leather for a comfortable yet high-end feel. Weighing in at 480 grams, the CRBN2 offers a balance of durability and comfort, making it suitable for prolonged listening sessions.

Hand-assembled in California

Each pair of CRBN2 headphones is meticulously hand-assembled and tested in California by specialists in electrostatic technology, ensuring that every unit meets Audeze’s rigorous quality standards. With a frequency response that spans an impressive 10Hz to 40kHz and a total harmonic distortion (THD) of less than 0.1% at 90dB, the headphones deliver a listening experience that is both immersive and refined.

To operate the CRBN2, users will need an amplifier equipped for electrostatic output, utilizing a 580 VDC bias, commonly referred to as “Stax Pro Bias.” Audeze has noted that a variety of amplifiers available in the market are compatible with the CRBN2 to help ensure users can enjoy its remarkable audio capabilities.

UCLA School of Medicine

Notably, the development of the CRBN2 has its roots in a collaboration with UCLA School of Medicine, originally aimed at producing headphones for use in MRI machines. The project’s unique requirements led to the creation of the groundbreaking carbon nanotube film electrostatic driver, a testament to Audeze’s heritage of innovation.

With its combination of cutting-edge technology, luxurious design, and impeccable craftsmanship, the Audeze CRBN2 electrostatic headphones stand as a testament to the future of high-fidelity audio, promising listeners an unparalleled journey through their favorite music. Whether for professional use or personal enjoyment, the CRBN2 is set to redefine what is possible in the realm of electrostatic sound reproduction.
