2-way Hybrid Electrostatic
Design  

Most headphones on the market
today fall into one of several categories: Electro-dynamic, Planar
Ribbon, or Electrostatic (ESL). Knowledgeable
audiophiles consider ESLs to be the best of all speaker types, with the
highest quality of sound and least coloration.

The challenge has always been getting them to
operate over the full bandwidth, produce great bass, be portable, and not cost a fortune. This required inventing a new diaphragm material infused with "nano-particles" that keep the diaphragm permanently charged, eliminating the DC Bias Charger / Amp that all competing electrostatic
headphones still require to this day. It requires them to be plugged into an AC
wall socket, making them all un-portable.

Except Mitchell & Johnson MJ2 and the other models in the line priced from $199 to $599. They’re less expensive because they get rid of the electronics.

By combining the
best 40mm dynamic woofer with neodymium magnet set in an acoustically ideal sealed wood
chamber for deep, articulate bass, crossing over to the
electrostatic diaphragm at about 200 Hz to deliver a perfect blend of both
technologies. The result is the finest headphone I’ve heard yet, with clarity
and resolution equal to the best headphones available today without a lot of fuss.    

The extremely thin diaphragm of
ESLs has a much lower mass than most other drivers and therefore conducts to
velocity of dynamic response, meaning they’re faster because they’re
lighter. They have no overhang, meaning they dont store energy.  ESLs have
the absolute advantage on frequency response, both amplitude and phase, and
musical transparency when compared to electro-dynamic and planar ribbon
drivers. Note the specialized mounting angle of the drivers, they’re
cleverly aimed into your ear canal to eliminate HRTF, Head Related Transfer
Function. Wow. That’s a nice touch, none of the others thought about that.

The headphones take you deep inside
the song. You can hear things you have NEVER heard before. Colour me impressed
and that’s after listening to 4 songs from out the box. The bass is definitely
there (thank God) I am pleased it’s not totally flat sounding. Leon Everton,

My brother was using a straight up
iPhone 6 with crappy 256k downloads from iTunes. I’m planning on bringing him
along slowly so he can unleash much more potential out of his new cans. When he
said that everything was better he was specifically speaking about the
precision and balance. He thought the detail was astounding, particularly in
the mids and highs. His tastes lean to acoustic and folk so it’s a perfect fit.

Received the headphones 4 weeks ago
and after spending some hours listening music an streaming media using
different dacs and other analog sources I can definitely say that it was a
dramatic upgrade compared with my audio technica ath-909. Coupling them with
mDSD DAC transformed the way i listen liquid music on my pcs and phones.

Altan, UK Audiophile Consumer,

Impressions so far can be described
in one word as exceptional. No matter what kind of music I throw at it the
sound that comes out is just right, near perfect, everything’s so well
balanced, rich. Almost as if it has its own dynamic equalizer, automatically
adjusting to my unique preferences for each song. More to come after I
rediscover more of my favorite tunes. Altan, UK Audiophile Consumer, Aug 2016

Noel Clarke, UK Audiophile
Consumer, Sept 2016 – November 18, 2016

They give layers to songs that I
never heard before. I can hear the drummer hit the skins in different places on
fleetwood macs the chain. That’s how sensitive they are. I feel like I’m
standing next to the actual drum. Really impressed with these. Currently
listening to a James Blake The Wilheim scream and it’s giving different depths
to my hearing experience. I’m really impressed Noel Clarke, UK Audiophile

“if like me, you dig naturally
clean, forward highs, great stereo detail, and with fast bass, chances are that
you’ll really dig these MJ2 phones. ” Nathan Wright, Headfonia, Feb 2016
