ABYSS DIANA MR Premium High-Performance Headphone

DIANA MR headphones are designed to connect those who appreciate top shelf headphone sound with the master tape. ABYSS developed this highly refined full-range planar headphone with ultra low distortion and smooth addictive clarity to sound.

DIANA® MR maximizes listening enjoyment with any level of electronics, from USB dongles through high-end tube and solid state headphone amplifiers. Midrange is this headphone's specialty, if you appreciate lifelike intimate vocals without sibilance Diana MR is the perfect choice for you.

A relatively low 30 ohm impedance works well with low voltage portable battery operated gear as well as higher power desktop electronics, extracting excellent resolution while still sounding lush in the bass. The newly designed Diana MR patented planar speaker drivers have a very organic frequency response with a full natural sound through the bass and midrange, excellent vocals, and an extended high frequency range that's smooth, clear, and true to the source yet never harsh or brash. 

With MR you'll hear low level details into the recordings without fatigue, glare, or sibilance. We've instilled the best sonic attributes of high-performance headphones into one. The sound is effortless and easy. Weight has been reduced to a lightweight 315 grams, and the newly added soft sling headband is exceptionally comfortable for long-term listening sessions. This latest ABYSS Diana MR headphone will fit your head, ears, and brain like it was custom made just for you!

Note: Vegan version (no animal skins) comes with cactus leather headband and UltraSuede ear pads. Suede ear pads have a subtle softening of upper frequencies, helpful to tame harder sounding music. Suggest lambskin ear pads if you prefer to maximize detail retrieval and soundstage size. You can also order additional Diana magnetic ear pads including bass ported versions at any time to tailor the sound at will.

Diana MR comes with the stock ear pads as they have the most linear frequency response below 20 Hz. Bass Ported ear pads trade off deep sub-bass for a bump above as a more tailored bass response for those seeking a fuller sound. Bass ported ear pads are only sold separately, this gives you a way to enjoy your Diana MR in different ways with various gear and genres by the simple change of a magnetic ear pad.
