| Product Description: | Breakthrough Electrostatic Technology Featuring the most advanced electrostatic technology in decades, Audeze proudly introduces the CRBN electrostatic headphone (pronounced "carbon"), which features a new Patent-pending polymer film with suspended carbon nanotubes to eliminate problems commonly found in previous electrostatic designs. Originally developed for MRI medical applications, we've adapted those innovations for the audiophile version of CRBN, which top audio professionals have called the best sounding electrostatic headphone to-date. Designed with Purpose Audeze originally developed this new technology working with Prof. Mark S. Cohen Ph.D., UCLA School of Medicine and his team, for use in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Typical ferrous metals could not be used, so we had to develop a new material, and that led us to patent a special thin film with suspended carbon nanotubes. This solves the problems associated with lamination and deposition on the film. Carbon Nanotube Technology The CRBN driver includes a revolutionary ultra-thin diaphragm with carbon nanotubes suspended inside the material. Because the charge is distributed throughout the film, this results in a uniform driving force that reduces distortion and improves clarity, resolution and transparency. Supreme Comfort CRBN offers supreme comfort with its lightweight construction. At 300 grams, the minimalist design features materials such as magnesium and carbon fiber, which shaves off every gram while maintaining strength. The earpads are extra plush and slightly oversized, for a great seal and pillow-soft, cranium-cradling comfort. Elegant Design CRBN is the ultimate in luxurious design, from the smooth curves of its uniquely etched grill, to the depth of its finely polished acetate rings. Featuring hand-stitched premium leather, every detail has been fine-tuned, all the way down to the feel of the machined aluminum 5-pin connector. 580 Volt Compatibility CRBN is compatible with "Stax Pro Bias" 580 Volt amplifiers such those from Woo Audio, |

i'll take the glass half full view... that if you get a much better version of the same music you have now, that you can potentially enjoy it much much more
You are not in a giving holiday spirit @CaptainCheap0.
I want to say SD employed around 100 employees with nearly $100M in annual revenue? Hmm.
There was also the stink a few years back when SD finally added the teeny tiny wording about how SD may get a small share of the sale. Small shares add up. This is why cashback site references are VERBOTEN even if it is a better deal for forum readers.
Oh, how the truth is freeing.
Every time there's a funny comment around here there's 5 or 6 duds that give it a ๐. C'mon party people!!!

So agree!! I'm a ceramicist (a potter) and I try to price so everyone can buy it. But when I price hiked from$25/plate to $500/plate (more as a joke) and I sold 3. Faster than I ever sold em at $25! Crazy.
The two Audeze models I have tried are the $700 EL-8 and $4000 LCD-4Z. What started as minor differences between the two have become more noticed over time and having put more varied types of music through each one. Even though the LCD is quite a bit heavier, I now greatly prefer them over the EL-8, which I can wear for longer periods of time. Whether that difference in sound is worth the difference in cost is entirely subjective. Definitely diminishing returns comparing the two models, but for me, I'll be hanging on to the LCD and might end up selling the EL-8.
