Ultrasone have over the last few months a firm fave of the staff here at Scan with a number of us already picking up pairs for our own studios, having been impressed with the clarity and accuracy of the models currently available. This week the range expands with the Ultrasone Signature DJ edition offering the same great sound quality of the Ultrasone Signature studio edition in a more DJ friendly design.
Ultrasone comments on the Signature DJ Edition:
The development of these luxurious DJ headphones drew on the experiences of DJs from all over the world.
Something all passionate DJs have in common is the desire for an exceptional set of headphones. These unique Signature DJ headphones are the product of this background knowledge, our many years of experience in the professional music business and our passion for high-quality products.
The bass-oriented tone quality of the extremely powerful transducer reproduces entirely distortion-free music – even at high volume. Such bass precision and absence of distortion are a result of patented S-Logic PLUS technology. The Signature DJ headphones come equipped with patented MU metal shielding as a matter of course, which in turn reduces electromagnetic radiation by up to 98% – a must for every health and safety conscious professional.
The Signature DJ are the first DJ headphones of their kind with ear and head pads made from Ethiopian sheepskin. Their acoustic insulation and superior wearer-comfort are unparalleled. Another exceptional quality feature of this luxurious leather is its ability to absorb sweat without causing the leather to perish or become porous. In order to underscore the exclusivity and quality of these DJ headphones the name plates are made of toughened glass and imprinted with reflective logos by means of a unique process.
These Ultrasone headphones have been specifically designed for use in clubs but are also perfectly suited for use on the move. The helix cable, delivered as standard, is ideal for professional use and can be used interchangeably between microphone and remote control – enabling the use of mobile devices everywhere.
