The moment has finally arrived for audiophiles and sound enthusiasts alike to experience the next level of headphone innovation the CRBN2. This groundbreaking electrostatic headphone promises to deliver an unmatched listening experience, combining powerful bass response with vividly holographic spatial imaging through its state-of-the-art features.
Unmatched Audio Quality
Renowned mastering engineer Bob Katz, a luminary in the recording industry, has declared the CRBN2 as “The World’s Best Headphone.” After decades of experience, Katz asserts that the CRBN2 is the most accurate headphone he has ever encountered, setting a new benchmark for audio fidelity in the world of headphones.
Introducing SLAM Technology
At the heart of the CRBN2’s remarkable sound quality is the proprietary Symmetric Linear Acoustic Modulator (SLAM) technology. This innovative system is designed to enhance bass frequencies while minimizing distortion, ensuring that listeners enjoy an optimal auditory experience. The SLAM technology maintains ideal pressure distribution on the diaphragm, resulting in the most lifelike physical bass ever achieved in an electrostatic headphone. With natural detail presentation and immersive stereo imaging, the CRBN2 stands out as a leader in its class.
Cutting-Edge Driver Design
The CRBN2 features a second-generation driver that pushes the boundaries of electrostatic technology. The patented carbon nanotube-embedded driver film is meticulously crafted in-house, allowing for precise control over the electrostatic force across the driver. This level of precision is crucial for attaining the most accurate sound reproduction possible, making every listening session an unforgettable experience.
Precision Craftsmanship
Each CRBN2 headphone is hand-assembled and rigorously tested in California by a team of electrostatic specialists. This meticulous attention to detail ensures that every pair meets the highest standards of quality and performance, providing users with a premium product that is built to last.
High Voltage Amplification
To fully harness the capabilities of the CRBN2, users will need an amplifier with electrostatic output, utilizing a 580VDC bias, commonly referred to as “Stax Pro Bias.” Fortunately, a range of compatible amplifiers from various brands are available on the market, ensuring that users can find the perfect match for their new headphones.
Upgrade Your Original CRBN
For existing CRBN owners, Audeze offers a unique opportunity to upgrade to the latest CRBN2 specifications. The upgrade program is available for just $995, with updates expected to commence by mid-March 2025. The process will take approximately 10 business days to complete upon receipt, allowing original CRBN owners to enjoy the enhanced features and performance of the CRBN2.
