What makes a quality headphone? What are the differences between $50 headphones and $5000 headphones? How does a person define their end game headphones, and what elements are a part of their decision matrix? If anyone is in the market for high end headphones, these are some of the most pressing questions. My goal is to discuss a few of these below, create some transparency, and allow everyone to have a better understanding of their needs and desires in order to purchase that perfect pair of stereo headphones.....
2nd Generation Of A Masterpiece
The T 1 (2nd generation) stands for top sound quality and precise workmanship like no other headphones from beyerdynamic. It is the flagship of beyerdynamic's premium range for the home and its unique Tesla technology sets new standards.
Tesla Technology
The supreme discipline in beyerdynamic's premium class is known by the name "tesla". Developed in-house, tesla technology represents a milestone in beyerdynamic's innovation history.
Named after the pioneer of alternating current Nikola Tesla, the term tesla is used by experts to refer to the unit of magnetic induction or magnetic flux density in the metre-kilogram-second system (SI) of physical units. The magnetic flux density is important for headphones - it indicates the intensity of the magnetic field (magnetic field strength) in the air gap of the magnetic circuit. Because a magnetic flux density of more than one tesla is achieved in beyerdynamic acoustic transducers, the term tesla technology is used.
Harmonic Tuning
The second generation of the T 1 features an enhanced tuning with greater warmth and musicality. This exceptionally harmonic tuning is complemented by a carefully intensified bass, which gives fans of contemporary music in particular the low-frequency foundation that they are looking for.
Highest Wearing Comfort
Soft velour ear cushions made from hollow fibre facilitate music enjoyment for hours without any unpleasant build-up of heat. A memory foam layer beneath the velour cover makes the ear cushions exceptionally soft. Premium comfort and a perfect fit are also guaranteed by the protein-coated headband made from high-quality synthetic leather.
Detachable Cable
The textile-covered connection cable, the conductors made from ultra-pure OCC copper, and the screwable jack plugs provide for optimum sound transmission. The removable cable can be exchanged for an optional cable with 4-pin XLR connectors, allowing for balanced transmission on an accordingly suitable headphone amplifier.
Luxurious Hard Case
The T 1 comes with a light and contemporary hard case in black. The hard case with hinged cover is suitable for safe transportation on the go as well as for an impressive presentation of the high-end headphones at home.
Hi-Res Audio
The T 1 (2nd generation) is Hi-Res Audio certified and can handle high-resolution audio files. When played back, these hi-res files therefore retain all their musical details and come as close as possible to the original recording.
Elegant Design
Premium-quality synthetic leather and soft velour not only ensure a high level of wearing comfort but also underline the elegant design of the hi-fi headphones. The ear cups' delicate metallic grill and subtle colour shades round off the premium appeal of the T 1.
Made In Germany
The T 1 is handcrafted in Germany with the utmost care. Skillfully and with passion for detail, our employees at the company headquarters in Heilbronn bring together delicate technology and high-quality materials
