The result of nearly 70 years of audio expertise from Onkyo, combined with Steve Harris’ uncompromising sonic standards, have produced the ED-PH0N3S - on-ear headphones that deliver even-handed power and detail at all frequencies.
Fitted with two customised 40mm titanium drivers they convey stunning clarity in the mid and high-frequency ranges. Just as importantly, their unique ported bass sub-chambers help create a beautifully deep, muscular bottom-end response.
The pure silver coating on the plug and selected thick-gauge signal cables help ensure an accurate signal transition from the source to driver. The non-detachable cable delivers an uninterrupted sound.
FAQ
Q: Why are these headphones good for Rock and Metal?
A: With total involvement from Steve Harris these headphones are balanced for clean highs and lows but also for the all important space in the mid-range to best display the dynamics and complexities of rock and metal music.
Q: What are the benefits of Titanium drive units?
A: Titanium is one of the strongest, lightest metals on earth which gives an ultra clean and highly accurate sound; a major requirement that Steve demanded before he would put the band’s name to them.
Q: Why the Silver contacts and not the commonly-used Gold?
A: Silver is the best conductor and does not influence the sound having no sonic character of its own. The cables are high performance multi-strand conductors with a fabric cover to further protect the signal.
