These headphones present an accurate image of your music than ordinary headphones, allowing you to hear every nuance and aspect of your music. Therefore, having a good set of studio headphones is just as important as any other gear in your studio.
These headphones provide a fresh perspective to that mix you’ve spent hours mastering and recording, essentially giving you another set of ears.
Ideal for
Indoor Use
Open-Back Design
Headphones with an open-back design, allow air to pass through the earcups. This means that Open-Backs do not block any noise from around you, as closed-backs do, and music being heard will also leak outside to people around you. So they can only be heard in a quiet environment.
However, Open-back headphones do sound more natural and open. Open-back headphones create a feeling of space, presenting audio as if you are sitting at a live concert. Audiophiles swear by open-back headphones, and they sound quite different to closed-backs.
These headphones are perfect for critical listening sessions, mixing and mastering music. They have an accurate soundstage presentation and precise imaging.
Needs Amplification
Headphones and IEMs require a certain level of power to sound their best and work at their full potential. When your headphones or IEMs are underpowered, they can sound thin or muffled.
Amplifiers are required to provide adequate power to your headphone or IEMs to perform at their best. Simply put, amplifiers allow a weak audio signal to be boosted to a powerful one.
To put it into perspective, devices such as your phones and laptops come with an amplifier, but they offer very limited output power. This output may not be sufficient to power headphones and IEMs to shine at their best. This is where a dedicated amplifier is required to deliver adequate power to hear your music in all its glory.
Planar Magnetic Drivers
Planar magnetic drivers combine characteristics of several driver types. They employ magnetic fields akin to dynamic and balanced armature drivers. However, planar magnetic drivers, like electrostatic drivers, use a flat, thin diaphragm in contrast to a coil. The planar drivers are known for their quick transient response.

Description
A REVOLUTION IN HEADPHONE TECHNOLOGY DESIGNED AND MADE IN BERLIN
In Berlin, the HEDDphone was created from the ground up. The HEDDphone is handmade with great care and attention to detail as no machine can, thanks to the exact folding method and careful application of this unique design. Based on American-German physicist Oskar Heil's original Air Motion Transformer (AMT) technology, HEDD creator Klaus Heinz built the first compact and marketable AMT tweeter 30 years ago. Heinz began work on a full-range Air Motion Transformer in 2019 to establish a new ground for this superior transducer principle.
FEATURES WORLD'S FIRST FULL-RANGE AMT DRIVER WITH SUPER-LIGHT KAPTON DIAPHRAGM
Designed for recording artists, music producers, and audiophiles, the HEDDphone® is a cutting-edge headphone. It is the first full-range capable headphone based on the company's technology: the Air Motion Transformer, and it boasts gorgeous and hand-crafted Made in Germany components (AMT). The AMT is built on a super-light Kapton diaphragm which is folded into a magnetic field, as opposed to the standard voice coil, planar, or electrostatic designs. It is made up of several different-shaped folds that squeeze the air in and out, causing it to accelerate by a factor of three. As a result, the original signal is represented in an open, hyper-detailed, and realistic manner. The auditory benefits include increased precision, clarity, and realism in audio reproduction, faster transient response and better treble extension.
EMBEDDED WITH VVT® VARIABLE VELOCITY TRANSFORMATION TECHNOLOGY DELIVERING EVEN FREQUENCY RESPONSE
The HEDDphone uses the patent-pending VVT® diaphragm. This diaphragm extends the AMT principle to a linear full-range headphone transducer using the latest diaphragm geometry. This upgraded folded diaphragm lets air out four times faster and allows the playback of even the little nuances in the audio recording. Engineers modified the initial design by adding new geometries and a more sophisticated system of varied-sized folds to create an even frequency response across the entire audible frequency range. This method is known as VVT (Variable Velocity Transform).
EXCEPTIONAL BUILD OFFERING SUPREME COMFORT WITH SYMMETRIC 4-PIN MINI-XLR FOR EASY CONNECTIVITY
The solid body and functional design of the "HEDDphone" add to its unique architecture, being more reliable. The middle of the top headband piece has a notch, and the two side parts carry the brunt of the weight where the surface area comes into contact with the top of your head. This design means that after a few hours, there will be no hot spot in the middle, and the weight will be distributed to a more variable surface area laterally on the sides of your head rather than pressing down on the centre. The cups are also more tightly clamped inward, allowing part of the weight at the top to be relieved. Furthermore, the pads soften much of the clamp, preventing it from pressing against your jaw. There's a little cup swivel, so getting a good fit isn't a problem. All the materials used are of excellent quality, such as the vegan pleather pads, which provide superior comfort while also being acoustically treated to offer crystal-clear audio. It has a symmetric 4-pin mini-XLR for connectivity, which is rather convenient.

"HEDD Audio has managed to create a high end headphone which brings freshness to the personal audio world. Bass goes deeper and especially the sub bass is remarkable."
"The Hedd Audio Heddphone is something very special: Here, the so-called Air Motion Transformer (AMT) is used in a headphone, and also as a full-range driver.

"What an outstanding tour de force HEDD Audio has released, what you get is such a transparent and true to life listening experience that they will melt away into the background once you put them on."
"I'm thrilled to report that the HEDDphone does live up to the hype. More importantly, this release changes the landscape for high performance headphones."
"The speed and definition of the HEDDphone’s treble exceed that of any planar and most DDs. The HEDDphone represents the first decently implemented, commerically available AMT headphone."
"They sound great, in a way that’s actually useful for mixing and mastering. Something of a technological breakthrough. Enter the HEDDphone, and a fourth driver technology that eliminates this compromise."
"It’s no secret by now that I had an enjoyable time listening to the HEDDphones. I think they are an absolute beast of a headphone that not only innovates in design but sounds impeccable as well."
"I’m pleasantly surprised that HEDD Audio could produce such versatile and good-sounding headphones in its first try, using a technology that has never been tried in headphones."
