The headphones utilize newly developed Core Mount Technology that optimally positions the driver unit within the housing to improve airflow efficiency. The efficient airflow helps the headphones reproduce highly transparent mid and high frequencies and rich, precise bass sound. The 58 mm integrated driver units combine a tungsten-coated diaphragm, baffle and Permendur magnetic circuit in a single unit to reduce unwanted vibration and, since no screw clamps are required, decrease the weight.

AMTS is an inline device placed between the transducer and ear. It integrates waveguides, diffusion control, quarter-wave, and Helmholtz resonators into one compact structure. Diffusion elements reduce some of the standing wave formation while resonators act as both precision and broad filters to smooth and shape the frequency response, reducing the amplitude of response peaks and troughs from the midrange through the highest frequencies.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe upshot is AMTS greatly reduces standing waves so high frequencies are rendered with a refreshingly smooth, accurate, and detailed delivery across all genres.

The signature sound of the HD 800 S is possible not because of any one of them, but through the synergy of all of them.

Instead of a single attachment on the outer circumference of the transducer, both outer and inner edges of the “ring” are secured to the drive unit. The voice coil excites the diaphragm, connected to the v-shaped groove found near the center of the ring. A feat in itself, the voice coil is 40mm and wound in-house to ensure the shape and consistency is held to the highest standard.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eAll the World’s a Stage\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe HD 800 S features a mesmerizing soundstage that seemingly transports the listener into the recording environment.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis is the result of several key features. The drivers are mounted at a precise angle, guiding the sound directly to the listener’s ears at their natural inflection point. Instead of hearing a sound that forms between your ears, you experience a vivid wash of frequencies and sensory-stimulating transients. When finally combined, the vibration damping chassis, perfectly matched transducer systems and wide-open construction work in concert to provide the most striking soundstage yet. This orientation rivals or exceeds loudspeaker setups costing exponentially more—especially when room acoustics are factored in.

With a wider and deeper soundstage, a stronger bottom end, and a smoother, richer midrange, CORINA delivers a fun, yet lifelike tone with sumptuous vocals and bass that really kicks.

As most listeners know, ear pads can affect the sound of headphones dramatically.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhile drivers can be precision matched, ear pads, which involve welding or stitching fabrics and use of foams, have always limited the actual tolerances of the headphone.

With its flagship-style headphone band, wood cups, brown leatherette pads, and cognac leather, this headphone is beautiful with a vintage, artistic flair. It also comes with terminations-a-plenty including XLR, 6.3 and 3.5 SE cables.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Audivina sound exhibits a natural feeling bass, good detail and generally neutral timbre for the mids, and classic HFM treble with just the right amount of sparkle, sizzle, and air.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhere this headphone unquestionably shines is in the soundstage featuring some of the widest, most 3-D soundstages we’ve heard in a closed-back with next-level imaging that favors separation over cohesion.
