Its lightweight design enhances the listening experience, allowing users to enjoy hi-res, low-distortion sound quality across a broad range of use cases.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e50mm ULT Dynamic Driver\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eAfter two years of meticulous research and refinement, Moondrop’s 50mm ULT dynamic driver, featured in the Horizon, delivers enhanced dynamic range, lower distortion, and extended bandwidth. Utilizing dual N55 neodymium magnet arrays with a natural flux density exceeding 1.6T, the driver offers precise control over diaphragm movement, resulting in cleaner transients and a remarkably effortless, articulate sound.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cspan\u003eTitanium-Plated PEN Dome + Double Layer  Liquid Silica Gel Suspension Diaphragm\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAchieving treble extension in large-diameter drivers requires a delicate balance of rigidity and damping. PEN, a material favored in high-end dynamic drivers, offers an ideal combination of both. Titanium surface plating further boosts acoustic velocity while minimizing split resonances. Unlike conventional approaches, the Horizon’s liquid silica gel suspension is formed through precision direct-injection molding of ultra-thin materials, offering greater reliability and control at higher amplitudes.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg alt=\"Moondrop Horizon headphones extreme closeup of diaphragm\" height=\"1200\" width=\"2048\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0023\/9255\/5595\/files\/moondrop-horizon-diaphragm.webp?v=1752169728\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cspan\u003eNewly Designed Inclined Driver\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"UTF-8\"\u003eTo create a wider soundstage and ensure optimal auricle coupling, Horizon features a new inclined driver design. Inside the cups, the driver sits at an intentional angle to better align with your ears’ natural shape. This design helps sound waves reach your ear from the front at a more realistic angle, creating a wider and more immersive soundstage with natural diffusion and better timbre.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cspan\u003eRelaxed Tuning\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"UTF-8\"\u003eThe Horizon’s frequency response follows Moondrop’s VDSF target, with a relaxed and even-handed tuning. The sub-bass reaches down to 80Hz free-field, rare for an open dynamic driver. Highs are smooth and detailed, and the mids remain uncolored. Harmonic distortion sits below 0.1% at 1kHz, so fine details in your music come through without harshness or smearing.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg alt=\"Moondrop Horizon headphones sitting on measurement dummy head right earcup view on black background\" height=\"2048\" width=\"2048\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0023\/9255\/5595\/files\/moondrop-horizon-lifestyle.webp?v=1752169813\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"MoonDrop","offers":[{"title":"New","offer_id":41736906342475,"sku":"MD-HORIZON","price":199.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Open Box","offer_id":42274868789323,"sku":"MD-HORIZON-OB","price":179.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0023\/9255\/5595\/files\/moondrop-2-horizon-thumb.webp?v=1752170877","url":"https:\/\/bloomaudio.mom\/products\/moondrop-horizon","provider":"Bloom Audio","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
