Combining an exclusive aesthetic with state-of-the-art engineering, Elite delivers an accurate, authentic listening experience ready to meet the highest expectations of the proficient audiophile.
The Elite comes in a beautiful metallic suitcase that adds a high-end flair and suggests their status.
The case will nicely protect them from the outside world and the foam inserts will absorb the shocks.
Besides the headphones themselves, you are also getting a certificate of authenticity (where the serial number is stamped), a user manual, two sets of earpads for two distinct sound signatures and there’s a nicely made detachable headphone cable terminated with either a 6.35mm or a 4-pin XLR jack, depending on your order.
When it comes to looks, build quality, and comfort levels, Elite and Empyrean are pretty much unbeatable !
Machined yokes and earcups made them sturdy, a carbon fiber headband with a real leather headrest was added to the frame for maximum durability, making them ultra-light at the same time.
