AudioQuest NightOwl Carbon Headphone

The closed-back NightOwl Carbon further advances the state of the headphone art, replacing NightHawk’s sound-diffusing grille with an intelligently designed aperiodic
damping system for excellent isolation of external noise.

Closed-Back Design

Hidden beneath the central circular portion of NightOwl’s earcups, a vent runs along the
perimeter of each dome and exits through a hidden airflow-resistive port. Thus,
unlike other headphones that use a sealed enclosure, NightOwl is designed to
effectively relieve the buildup of pressure, allowing the drivers to breathe
freely, ensuring that any impulses quickly return to an innocuous resting
state—with no ringing, oscillation, or resonance.

Sophisticated, Loudspeaker-inspired Design for Remarkable Resolution 

Compared to the drive-units commonly used in most headphones, NightOwl Carbon’s 50mm dynamic driver much more closely resembles the high-quality drive-units found in
today’s most sophisticated loudspeakers—not simply in appearance, but, more
importantly, in terms of function and performance. It employs a carefully
constructed bio-cellulose diaphragm, voice-coil former, and compliant rubber
surround, resulting in quality that is as easily seen as it is heard. 

Designed for exceedingly low distortion and high excursion with true pistonic motion,
NightOwl Carbon’s driver contributes significantly to the headphones’
well-controlled bass, rich midrange, and naturally extended highs. Its
combination of effortless clarity and outstanding representation of space
produces meaningful, emotionally compelling listening experiences. More than
merely capable of providing short-term pleasure, NightOwl Carbon is designed
to deliver satisfaction that endures.

Comfortable, Fatigue-Free Listening 

NightOwl Carbon’s headpad attaches to its outer headband via small, swiveling pins located on either side of the headband’s base, just above the suspension’s yoke. An inner
elastic band is concealed by a soft, modestly cushioned pad, which yields and
rises when met by resistance or pressure. In this simple way, the headpad
automatically adjusts to the listener’s head—no clicking, snapping, cranking,
or guessing involved—guaranteeing an easy, comfortable fit, time and time
again. Just place NightOwl Carbon over your head and let it do its thing.
There’s nothing else to do, but enjoy.

All-Natural Liquid Wood 

NightOwl Carbon’s earcups are made from a revolutionary material called “Liquid Wood”—actual wood that has been combined with reclaimed plant fiber, heated, liquefied, and \ processed in such a way that it can be injection molded. While injection
molding is commonly accomplished with environmentally hazardous plastics or
synthetic polymers, Liquid Wood is a natural material—as sustainable as it is
physically beautiful. Moreover, compared to ordinary plastic or wood, Liquid
Wood has far superior acoustic properties and provides a seemingly endless
array of geometric possibilities. In our headphones, we’ve used Liquid Wood to
shape our earcups to more closely resemble the human ear, thereby providing a
more complete and comfortable fit, reducing stress on the listener’s head and
ears.

Sustainable Engineering 

To the very extent that it is possible and practical, we avoid the use of plastics in designing and manufacturing our headphones. Whereas the production and disposal of plastic is
known to present environmental hazards, the production of Liquid Wood (as used
in our earcups), biocellulose (as used in our drivers), and 3D-printed grilles
(as used in NightHawk and NightHawk Carbon), has minimal impact on the
ecosystem. The same holds true for Protein Leather—a bio-derived synthetic fabric
that we’ve used to encase our soft, comfortable earpads. Developed by combining
a specialty resin with protein powder derived from eggshells, Protein Leather
is durable, pliable, and has a softness and surface asperity approximating that
of human skin, making it particularly well suited to its application in
NightOwl Carbon.
