Myrinx Diaphragm
Why a single dynamic?
… The Price tag, as well as the number of driver units, cannot guarantee sound quality. Having one of the best dynamic drivers in the world, what else is necessary? We do not want networking as a source of unnecessary sound, nor do we want mutual acoustic interference by each driver unit. We organize the most simple production process at the most simple driver design.
What are the benefits of Myrinx?
… Its long-term stability and the high performance of the vibrating membrane, which comes from medical grade materials. It creates no clouded sound and no low resolution sound known as conventional dynamic driver aspect, and it enhances wider frequency response and rich sound field as a dynamic driver. In addition, Myrinx has no aging process and brings flexibility to a wide range of tuning options.
100% Metal Body Shell
Best solution of material for chamber is metal against resonance. Aluminum, brass, stainless steel, they all are processed by computerized machine in order to optimize their dimensions for best acoustic performance.
Pure Audio Grade Cable
Teamed up with Japan-based audio cable expertise.
Thanks for QT wiring technology that can deliver low noise and fine tuned sound on all frequency range, by fine pitch multi braided OFC cables.
Engineered Audio Connector
All audio components adopted in Acoustune earphones are engineered by Nippon DICS (NDICS), one of high-end professional audio components manufacturers in Japan.
NDICS is recently known as design and development of 4.4 mm balanced connector system Pentaconn in new industry standard JEITA RC-8141C and Pentaconn has been adopted in Sony Walkman Signature Series NW-WM1Z/WM1A and other major cable application suppliers in the world.
Price is about $400 to $450 depending on model. 1501 is aluminum for both chambers and the pricier 1551 has brass for the second inner chamber.
