Avantone Planar black Headphones
Reference Grade Open Back Headphones with Flat Drivers
Audiophile sound meets portability.
Avantone Planar is the result of Avantone’s experience in creating reference-quality monitoring products and the demands of modern, professional end users.
With flat drivers for extreme detail and ultimate comfort for long sessions, Avantone’s Planars are a perfect solution for mixing engineers, musicians, podcasters, live streamers and hi-fi enthusiasts.
With planar magnetic driver technology.
Planar drivers offer an incredible range of advantages over traditional moving coil drivers. Astonishing accuracy, high-quality detail, clarity, natural bass and response time.
Traditional moving coil drivers use a magnetic field to push/pull the driver in one direction and rely on the elasticity of the surround to return the driver to its neutral position. Planar drivers use a technology that combines principles between dynamic and electrostatic drivers – they are constructed from a precise array of magnets evenly spaced on both sides of a thin, electrically active diaphragm.
Due to the precision nature of this magnetic field, the force applied to the diaphragm is distributed in a symmetrical manner, producing a signal with very little harmonic distortion and incredibly fast response times. And because planars use front and rear magnets to apply equal forces in both directions, much less weight is placed on the driver material, resulting in a much more natural sound with less distortion – giving you hours of fatigue-free listening.
Avantone’s Planar headphones also feature an open-back design, with a perfectly tuned chamber resulting in a very flat frequency environment, without the typical pressure build-up, acoustic resonance and frequency curve of closed-back headphones. The result is an audiophile listening experience that can even be enjoyed portable!
Headphones that meet today’s demands.
Planar may be a bit larger than typical headphones, but that doesn’t change the need for comfort! Planar is perfectly weighted for extended listening sessions and offers extra comfort with their soft and roomy ear cushions. Sessions that last for hours only feel like minutes when you wear them!
Avantone Planars also include a high quality detachable 3.5mm cable that plugs into either side! Maybe you’re working with a large instrument, or a specific setup that makes the typical “left cable exit” feel uncomfortable; just connect to the right side! Planar also comes in an eco-friendly shoulder bag with room for your accessories – and even a pouch for the included cable.
