Holographic Audio Ear One

Minimalistisch uitgevoerde hoofdtelefoonversterker met een zeer neutraal geluidsbeeld. Geschikt voor zowel laag- als hoogohmige hoofdtelefoons. Voorzien van X-feed schakeling, welke een nog realistischer geluidsbeeld creëert. Het signaal van het linkerkanaal wordt zeer subtiel weergegeven via het rechterkanaal en vice versa. Het geluid lijkt hierdoor als ware van voren te komen, in plaats van uit de hoofdtelefoon.

The EAR ONE includes Öhman X-Feed, a clever circuit designed by Ingvar Öhman, creator of the GURU loudspeakers and simply the top audio innovator in the world today. You know how headphones give you sound in your left ear, sound in your right ear, and sound that seems to emanate from the top middle of your head? With X-Feed, you'll experience instead a seamless field of sound stretching from your left ear to your right ear, hovering in front of your forehead. In other words, you experience sound much like you would with an excellent pair of speakers!

See, when you listen to stereo, your right ear picks up information primarily from the right speaker - but also registers a small bit of sound coming from the left speaker (and, of course, the left ear picks up a small amount of information from the right speaker). Your brain then "fills in" the sound stage, localizing instruments according to the amount of sound coming from each speaker in a stereo pair.

Headphones can't effect this "filling in" phenomenon, however – unless you have Öhman X-Feed. Ingvar figured out the precise amount of information to route from right to left ear (and vice-versa) in order to produce that seamless sound stage that emulates listening to speakers (or live music). When you hear X-Feed at work...Well, you'll never want to go back to conventional headphone listening!"
