beyerdynamic Announces Impacto essential Digital-Analog Converter in Headphone Cable

Sound enthusiasts chose high-end headphones like the T 1 or T 5 p models from beyerdynamic expecting to get the highest quality experiences, not always provided by the sound source. In order to enable the best possible playback quality from portable devices such as notebooks or smartphones, beyerdynamic has developed the Impacto essential hi-res Digital to Analog Converter (DAC), which connects directly to USB interfaces.

At the Tokyo Headphone Festival, held from April 29-30, Sennheiser showcased the latest product in its high-end enthusiast range: the fully balanced headphone amplifier HDV 820. Building on the accomplishments of Sennheiser’s first-ever digital headphone amplifier, the acclaimed HDVD 800, the German company now designed the HDV 820 to complement its electronics with an enhanced, higher resolution and ultra low distortion option that perfectly complements its high-end headphones.

New at the Tokyo Headphone Festival this October, beyerdynamic unveils the Amiron Home open headphones. The successor to the legendary T 90 features the brand’s coveted Tesla technology, with improved tonal precision. The German brand describes the sound of its new Amiron as “warm” and “with a live atmosphere”. Apparent in the new design and choice of quality materials is an effort to improve wearing comfort and provide an overall sense of workmanship “Handmade in Germany”.
