D8000 DC

A new design that renews all of the D8000

The name of the DC is derived from the Da Capo "DA CAPO" of the music term (meaning to return to the beginning of the music). Seven years have passed since its release, and the design of the old model "D8000", which has become a long seller with a total of over 2,000 units in Japan and overseas, has been reviewed from scratch, and has developed a new flagship headphone. The driver unit's diaphragm was reviewed from manufacturing technology, and the proprietary technology "AFDS: Air film Dumping System*" is redesigned all punching metal holes, pitches and patterns. In addition, removing the magnet in front of the driver has increased the opening rate of about 70 % compared to the old model. Furthermore, the ear pad has been changed to 1.5 times thicker than the previous one, increasing the volume of the acoustic space. In addition to the sound that combines the conventional openness, the low range with a sense of quantity, and the delicate high range, the sound stage has become more detailed, achieving a vast sound stage.

In addition, by changing the above design, the body is reduced by about 100g, and by adopting a special Japanese paper fabric, it has a feeling of mounting that emphasizes dry comfort and comfort without sealing.

Equipped with evolved "AFDS: Air film Dumping System"

The conventional plane magnetic field driver needed to increase the frequency of the driver unit that can be played, because the diaphragm contacts the structure in a low range when the amplitude of the diaphragm is large. With the old model D8000, the unique technology "AFDS", which controls the movement of the diaphragm using the viscosity of the air, has become possible to overcome the problem and lower the low -frequency playback frequency. This solved the problem that the reproducibility of the bass, which was a weak point of a plane magnetic field type, was low. This is a technique that can be said to be a reconstruction of a plane magnetic field type.

Furthermore, in the D8000 DC, this "AFDS" was further evolved, and all the holes, pitches, and patterns of the punching metal used were redesigned. In addition, punching metal of different patterns is adopted before and after the diaphragm. As a result, combined with a breathable ear pad to achieve a bass with a sense of volume and openness. The ultra -light film diaphragm is molded by etched with extremely thin aluminum foil. As a result, a dynamic -type structure in which the drawer line of the coil is bonded to the diaphragm is unnecessary, and the vibration system is reduced to about 1/3. As a result of pursuing fundamental correctness, we have realized delicate high -frequencies that were not previously obtained.

Aluminum magnesium alloy cutting housing

To establish AFDS, it requires extremely high accuracy than a general driver unit. High rigidity is required to prevent unnecessary resonance and to support the driver strongly. For this reason, the cutting housing made of aluminum magnesium alloy is cut with extremely high accuracy, and the finish is applied to luxury cameras.

Structure with an increase in the opening rate in front of the driver

In the conventional D8000, the front magnet caused fine peaks and dips. By removing this in the D8000 DC, the opening rate in the front increased by about 70 %, which enhances the reproducibility of the high frequency range, making it possible to regenerate one note more finely.

Newly developed and developed ear pads for special fabrics using Japanese paper

Not only the sealed type but also the open headphones, many of them are sealed in the ear pads, extending the characteristic playback frequency to low frequencies where the driver unit cannot be played. However, in order to express the natural, high -quality low -quality high -quality high -quality high -quality expression of the sound source, the driver unit itself has the ability to regenerate to the low frequency, and it is necessary to use a lowly sealed and ventilated earpad. There is. However, many of the conventional flat magnetic field type and general dynamic type are in shortage of low -sealed ear pads.

In the D8000 DC, AFDS can extend the low -frequency recycled band, so that the driver unit capacity alone can play a low -range low -frequency playback only. The earpad, which has a great impact on this sound quality, is a company -developed product that uses special fabrics and breathable foam using Japanese paper that combines dry touch and durability as a surface material. Furthermore, in the DC, the thickness of this ear pad has been increased by 1.5 times to increase the volume of the acoustic space. As a result, the sound field has been expanded, leading to the smoothness of the bandwidth of a human voice. In addition, the headband portion adopts the same material to achieve moisture -resistant and high durability.

In -house factory production in pursuit of accuracy

The D8000 DC is produced in the headquarters in Kawasaki. The accuracy of the product assembly is greatly affected by the accuracy of the tool, which is a tool that assists assembly, along with the accuracy of the parts. The design and manufacture of production jigs are made in -house so that a small amount of sparse of parts accuracy can be fine -tuned while assembling.

In addition, we are developing a dedicated product as a dedicated product, such as a production device such as a vibration plate molding machine and a dynamic plate tension meter.

To create a really good thing, you need to step on the processing of the material. The goodness of MADE IN JAPAN is that you can get the cooperation of the material manufacturer in that case. The high quality of the product is achieved by consistently controlling from the headwaters of parts to the product to the assembly of products.

Design to make repair easier in consideration of long -term use

After the purchase, in order to use it for a long time, almost all parts are designed to be disassembled with screws, making it possible to repair long -term.

Difference between D8000 DC and D8000 DC Pro Edition

"D8000 DC PRO Edition" is a product that is adjusted according to the human hearing characteristics that the delicate sound quality of "D8000 DC" remains the same, and the ascending volume increases as the volume increases. Please choose the one with a suitable sound quality according to your listening volume.
