Wired High Resolution Audio Overhead Headphones
MDR-1AM2

With advanced acoustic design and premium materials, these High­Resolution Audio headphones capture the true essence of each track
– so you’ll hear music that’s closer to the original studio master. From
deep bass to soaring vocals, sound stays true for an authentic listening
experience thanks to a super-responsive LCP driver.

Features

Enjoy music as the artist intended with High-Resolution Audio

Take your digital music collection to another level with High-Resolution Audio. By digitally capturing music at a higher rate
than CD, High-Resolution Audio allows you to get closer to the original studio recording and enjoy your music just as the
artist intended.

Aluminum-coated LCP diaphragm for more precision

An aluminum-coated, liquid crystal polymer diaphragm gives a more consistent and precise sound across the entire
frequency range than even a conventional LCP driver. High frequencies uniquely contained in High-Resolution Audio
especially benet from the added rigidity, and energy lost during transmission to the headphone housing is more uniform,
ensuring a true and authentic performance.

Wide frequency response for a full range of sound

The wide-band frequency range – spanning 3Hz to 100kHz – is designed for a broad variety of music styles. Such a wide
frequency response ensures even advanced audio formats, which require a much larger spectrum, can be accurately
reproduced without hard limits or frequency roll-o, giving your music more life and realism.

Patterned grill for smooth ultra-highs

Grills help to protect the precision headphone diaphragm and are designed specically for passing ultra-high frequencies
without introducing ‘color’ to the sound. The grill pattern is based on a Fibonacci sequence to ensure no frequency is
boosted or cut. The result is a smooth, rened sound right across the frequency range.

Supplied balanced-connection headphone cable

A 4.4Φ balanced connection cable separates le and right sound signals completely, unlike conventional headphone
cables which share a ground wire. This minimizes signal transmission loss and resulting sound deterioration, so you hear less
distortion and cross-talk.

Silver-coated oxygen-free copper

The MDR-1AM2 uses silver-coated oxygen-free copper cables, designed to minimize resistance and signal-transmission loss.
The result is less sound degradation, ner detail and smoother treble sounds.
