The headphones have 58 mm dynamic drivers built with the new HXDT technology. The drivers provide a natural, spacious sound with rich bass, detailed mids and even highs. The new model has aluminum housings with honeycomb perforations for ventilation. The company's Core Mount technology positions the driver inside the housing to improve airflow to the diaphragm.
