Newly developed diaphragm for

long stroke

A new shape enables bigger vibration of the diaphragm and more air movement. It increases maximum sound pressure level and contributes for cinema-quality sound with realistic sensation.

Sounds of the highest quality

Technology to reproduce high grade sound with a wide bandwidth up to 110KHz*

New technologies to achieve high quality sound are employed to reproduce sound with a wide bandwidth and dynamic range recorded by Super Audio CDs as well as to realise subtle nuances of sound or ambience.

* Up to 100KHz by MDR-SA3000

Newly developed HD driver units

The shape used for these diaphragms of the newly developed HD driver units is calculated from computer simulations experimenting with hundreds of different shapes as well as actual test listening. Full range of the bandwidth is reproduced from very low to high frequency by using only one unit without separating bandwidth two or three ways.

Newly developed diaphragm made of nano-composite**

The diaphragm, which is the core element in sound productions, uses a very thin nano-composite specially developed for headphones. The material can meet demanding expectations at high level, combining high rigidity and light weight, both of which are necessary characters for materials for driver units’ diaphragms. It has enabled a wide bandwidth that goes higher than 100KHz. At the same time, it controls unnecessary resonance thanks to its character of low dependence on frequency as well as high internal loss. As the result, it produces clear sound without any idiosyncrasies.
