Featuring a bold metallic black paint ÆON 2 Noire sports a perforated ear-pad to deliver an all-new sound. In fact, ÆON 2 Noire's tuning almost exactly aligns to the “Harmon Curve,” gently boosting bass and treble compared to ÆON 2 Closed. The result is a “lighter” sounding midrange and a soundstage that moves the “stage” a bit further from the listener for a wider and deeper space\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eV-Planar Driver Processing\u003cbr\u003eImproves Bass Response And Lowers Distortion\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTrueFlow V2\u003cbr\u003eIncreases Resolution and Improves Dynamics\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTravel friendly\u003cbr\u003ePacks Small!\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTitanium, Aluminum, \u0026amp; Carbon\u003cbr\u003eUltralight, Yet Ultra-Strong\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg alt=\"Dan Clark Audio AEON 2 Noire Folded\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0065\/4432\/6771\/files\/aeon2noir.jpg?v=1694451625\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eBACK IN BLACK\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSince we launched ÆON 2 we have had two frequent requests: make a black version, and offer it with the perforated pads. Well we listened, and here it is! Experience the dynamics, detail and smooth sound of ÆON 2, with a striking black finish and a vibrant new sound with an expanded soundstage and a lighter midrange tone relative to its ÆON 2 Closed sibling.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eBIGGER SOUND, LIGHTER WEIGHT\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMost lightweight headphones are primarily made of plastic, but we wanted to find a stronger, more durable alternative - so we constructed ÆON 2’s headband and baffle entirely out of carbon fiber, aluminum, and titanium. Clocking in at a featherweight 328 grams, ÆON 2 is among the most comfortable headphones on the market, but built to stand the test of time.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg alt=\"Dan Clark Audio AEON 2 Noire Internal Diagram\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0065\/4432\/6771\/files\/aeon2-diagram-600_19482bbd-42b4-4a1b-a1a6-42f04f06207e.png?v=1694451713\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eNEW TECH, FROM OUR HOUSE TO YOURS\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEvery Dan Clark Audio planar magnetic headphone is powered by a 100% proprietary driver. No off-the-shelf parts stuck into a new enclosure here - our drivers are designed in-house! Features include: Super-efficient transducer keeps weight down by reducing magnet size Patented Trueflow technology improves airflow through the motor, producing a major upgrade in detail retrieval (AEON 2 sports our advanced second-generation Trueflow design) Patented V-Planar driver processing: textures the driver surface for superior low-frequency performance and improved diaphragm stability.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg alt=\"Dan Clark Audio AEON 2 Noire Driver\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0065\/4432\/6771\/files\/aeon2-driver-600.png?v=1694451762\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eBIG FUN NEVER PACKED SO SMALL\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eÆON 2’s unique and patented folding gimbal design allows it to pack into a truly compact case that can fit into nearly anything, even a large purse.

Closed versions of the headphones should be used when blocking noise or not disturbing others is a consideration. Sonically our closed headphones tend to have a lighter midrange tone, so while the open headphones have a deeper soundstage the “front and center” (think vocals) is several rows closer when using the open headphones, for a more intimate delivery.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDon’t be fooled: while it looks a lot like the ÆON RT, the ÆON 2 is a completely new and updated design. ÆON 2’s brand new driver uses our second generation TrueFlow technology that takes detail retrieval, dynamics, bass extension, and soundstage to a whole new level - which is why the New York Times Wirecutter called ÆON 2 Closed the best-sounding closed headphone under $2,000. And did we mention that it packs down to half its size?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor the budget-conscious, ÆON RT (Re-Tuned) headphones update our award-winning ÆON Flow with bumped up bass and crisper highs than the original. The result: ÆON RT delivers a springier and more dynamic listening experience, prioritizing affordability, fun-factor, and (of course) amazing sound quality! It doesn’t hurt that it’s unbelievably comfortable, and still made in San Diego. It’s not an ÆON 2, but it’s the next best thing!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003ePERFORMANCE\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDriver: 62mm x 34mm single-ended planar magnetic\u003cbr\u003eDriver matching: +\/-2dB to target curve, channel matched to 0.5dB weighted 30-8KHz\u003cbr\u003eTHD: less than 0.3% 20-20KHz, 0.1% 100-8KHz\u003cbr\u003eHeadband: Nickel-Titanium (Nitinol) memory metal\u003cbr\u003eBaffle: Carbon Fiber\u003cbr\u003eEarpads: Japanese Synthetic Protein Leather\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eIN THE BOX\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eÆON 2 Noire headphone\u003cbr\u003eCarrying case\u003cbr\u003eCable (selected in menu)\u003cbr\u003eCertificate of authenticity\u003cbr\u003eManual\u003cbr\u003eTuning kit\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Dan Clark Audio","offers":[{"title":"6.35mm (1\/4in) DUMMER \/ 1.8m (6ft)","offer_id":37755046232254,"sku":"1\/4\"-3.5mm\/2m","price":899.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"4.4mm DUMMER \/ 1.8m (6ft)","offer_id":51147219861737,"sku":"4.4mm DUMMER 2m","price":899.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"4-pin XLR DUMMER \/ 1.8m (6ft)","offer_id":37755046199486,"sku":"XLR\/2m","price":899.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"2.5mm VIVO \/ 1.8m (6ft)","offer_id":40724354400446,"sku":"2.5\/2m","price":1099.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"2.5mm VIVO \/ 1.1m (3ft 6in)","offer_id":40724353745086,"sku":"2.5\/1.1m","price":1099.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"3.5mm VIVO \/ 1.8m (6ft)","offer_id":40724359381182,"sku":"3.5\/2m","price":1099.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"3.5mm VIVO \/ 1.1m (3ft 6in)","offer_id":40724356071614,"sku":"3.5\/1.1m","price":1099.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"4.4mm VIVO \/ 1.8m (6ft)","offer_id":40724362297534,"sku":"4.4\/2m","price":1099.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"4.4mm VIVO \/ 1.1m (3ft 6in)","offer_id":40162086551742,"sku":"4.4\/1.1m","price":1099.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"6.35mm (1\/4in) VIVO \/ 1.8m (6ft)","offer_id":40724343324862,"sku":"6.3\/2m","price":1099.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"6.35mm (1\/4in) VIVO \/ 3.1m (10ft)","offer_id":40724347584702,"sku":"6.3\/3m","price":1149.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"4-pin XLR VIVO \/ 1.8m (6ft)","offer_id":40724349976766,"sku":"XLR\/2m","price":1099.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"4-pin XLR VIVO \/ 3.1m (10ft)","offer_id":40724352303294,"sku":"XLR\/3m","price":1149.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0065\/4432\/6771\/products\/DSC_0331SiteReady.jpg?v=1762457877","url":"https:\/\/audio46.mom\/products\/dan-clark-audio-aeon-2-noire-closed-back-headphones","provider":"Audio46 Headphone Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
