Dan Clark Audio Introduces Special Edition AEON 2 Noir Planar Magnetic Headphones

December 21 2020, 00:50
Dan Clark Audio introduced a special edition of its AEON 2 planar magnetic headphones, the AEON 2 Noir. As the San Diego-based company explains, since the launch of AEON 2 headphones back in 2019, when the company also changed its name from MrSpeakers to Dan Clark Audio, the market has been frequently requesting an all-black version, complemented with perforated pads. The company responded and the AEON 2 Noir, available in closed and open back versions, are now available. 
 

The AEON 2 Noir offers a new voicing to deliver a lively and involving musical experience. As the company details, the new sound combined with the perforated earpads, results in an expanded soundstage and a lighter midrange tone, closer to the Harman frequency response target curve, relatively to the AEON 2 Closed model. For headphone enthusiasts this will be a welcome improvement, combined with the pleasant aesthetics from the high-gloss all-black styling - still available for the same price of $899.99 as the standard AEON 2 (Red).

Available in both open and closed designs, the AEON series headphones contributed to establish the Dan Clark Audio brand, following the adoption of the new brand identity. The design delivered full-size headphone excitement and comfort, in a unique travel-friendly folding design, with the AEON 2 (red) improving upon the AEON RT (blue) entry-level design also with an upgraded second-generation planar driver.

All AEON series headphones feature a patented earcup design and hinge-free titanium headband that results in a more comfortable experience for long hours of music listening. But more importantly, the AEON headphones are extremely lightweight for its size, thanks to the combination of titanium alloy, aluminum and carbon fiber materials, which also make them stronger and reliable. As Dan Clark Audio underlines, these are the lightest full size planar headphones on the market.
 

The patent-pending collapsing headband design in the AEON 2 allows the headphones to fold in on itself to about half its normal sized, making it a great choice as travel headphones. And every Dan Clark Audio planar magnetic headphone is designed in-house and features a 100% proprietary, super efficient transducer, combined with the company's Trueflow technology that improves airflow through the motor. The AEON 2 model took the design a step further with an advanced second-generation V-Planar driver that delivers superior low frequency performance and improved diaphragm stability.

Orders for the Dan Clark Audio AEON 2 Noir can be placed now on the company's website and will ship by the end of December 2020. There are no "standard" cables included in the price of these headphones. Users can select among the multiple available options of cable type, connectors and lengths, where additional earpads and other accessories are also available.
