Revolutionary design
Developed from what were originally scientific headphones, the Audeze CRBN headphones are a classic case of being better through necessity. Used in a medical environment, headphones couldn’t use ferrous metals. This led to the development of a patented, special thin film with suspended carbon nanotubes. It turns out what’s good for the lab is also great for the music lover…
Carbon Nanotube technology
Based around an electrostatic headphone design, Caron Nanotube technology is unlike regular devices in that there is no coating. Charge is distributed throughout the film, creating a uniform force that banishes distortion to vanishingly low levels. The result is absolute sonic transparency and incredible transparency.
Supreme comfort
As you’d hope from a reference pair of headphones, the CRBN’s are supremely comfortable. Thanks to the use of lightweight materials such as magnesium and carbon fibre, they are lighter than typical headphones in this class. The oversized earpads are pillow-soft and fit around the ear for excellent long-term comfort, without placing pressure on your ears.
Premium design
Every element of these premium headphones is beautifully designed. From the uniquely etched grille to the finely polished, marbled graphite acetate rings, every detail is finished to perfection. Hand-stitched, premium leather is durable yet soft to the touch.
580 volt compatibility
The CRBN is widely compatible with Stax Pro Bias 580 volt electrostatic headphone amplifiers. The cable is terminated with the industry standard 5-pin barrel connector for maximum compatibility.
