Yes, this is eight, Edition 8. that's what you've been looking for between Edition 9 and Edition 7.
That is now real. To my surprise, the E8 is intended for portable!

This is live from the headphone show Tokyo 08. Ultrasone CEO came here and he just annaunced, he even brought a proto model.
Edition 8 is very neat and looks nice. Mirror finished surface.

I will update more on later and I will post some pics.

ESW9, ESW10 and Edition 8. Now we need hi-end portable forum

And more importantly, anything on its price?


A little googling ~looking sexy! nothing like the Edition 7 and 9, a refreshing take on the Ultrasone image.

Slated release date is sometime late March of 2009. MSRP ~150,000 yen!

WOW!!! Lookin' forward to your pics. Thanks for the update!

Very curious...as my wallet runs in terror.

 

[Rednamalas1]

150,000 Yen = 1545 US$

************!

this would have to outperform ESW10JPNS by considerable amount to justify its price

 

[toughnut]

150000yen?!! Usd1500?!!!! I run in terror

 

[hockeyb213]

that is ridiculous those better be the best cans to justify a crazy price like that

 

[ClieOS]

Still bloody expensive like rest of the Edition X. Well done Ultrasone, I am sure rich people will appreciate it.

 

[Rednamalas1]

It makes UE11 customs look more reasonably priced

Hey Sasaki, anything else getting released or showcased at the headphone festival? We would love a thread on it in the impressions forum!

The PRO 900s look better and better now.
