Originally developed for a product we designed for hospital MRI machines, our new CRBN (pronounced “Carbon”) electrostatic headphones are a superior solution. And yes, our new patented tech can be used in full-range speakers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePatent-pending carbon nanotube film\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWorks with all 580 Volt Pro Bias amplifiers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAccurate low frequency performance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eExcellent dynamic range\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLightweight and very comfortable\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eDesigned with Purpose\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAudeze originally developed this new technology working with Prof. Mark S. Cohen Ph.D., UCLA School of Medicine and his team, for use in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Typical ferrous metals could not be used, so we had to develop a new material, and that led us to patent a special thin film with suspended carbon nanotubes. This solves the problems associated with lamination and deposition on the film.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eCarbon Nanotube Technology\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe CRBN driver includes a revolutionary ultra-thin diaphragm with carbon nanotubes suspended inside the material. Because the charge is distributed throughout the film, this results in a uniform driving force that reduces distortion and improves clarity, resolution and transparency.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eSupreme Comfort\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCRBN offers supreme comfort with its lightweight construction. At 300 grams, the minimalist design features materials such as magnesium and carbon fiber, which shaves off every gram while maintaining strength. The earpads are extra plush and slightly oversized, for a great seal and pillow-soft, cranium-cradling comfort.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eElegant Design\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCRBN is the ultimate in luxurious design, from the smooth curves of its uniquely etched grill, to the depth of its finely polished acetate rings. Featuring hand-stitched premium leather, every detail has been fine-tuned, all the way down to the feel of the machined aluminum 5-pin connector.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e580 Volt Compatibility\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCRBN is compatible with “Stax Pro Bias” 580 Volt amplifiers such those from Woo Audio, Linear Tube Audio, Mjolnir Audio, Headamp, Stax (of course) and others.
