Ultrasone has released a new open-backed headphone in its PRO Series, the PRO 2900.
Ultrasone is releasing both a standard, single cable version and a balanced, double cable version of a pair of headphones.
While standard, single cable headphones are commonplace in most pro audio and audiophile applications, a balanced headphone coupled with a balanced amplifier is said to offer unique advantages over the former such as increased audio performance due to a doubling the slew rate and voltage swing power, while reducing distortion components & eliminating crosstalk.
