Final D8000 Pro Edition black

Headphones: Final D8000 Pro Edition

The D8000 Pro Edition is equipped with the Air Film Damping System (AFDS), a unique technology that combines the sensitive high frequencies of planar magnetic models with the volume and open feeling of dynamic models. This results in a sound quality that is perceived as having greater clarity, especially when listening to rock, pop, and other genres that have a narrow dynamic range.

The treble range is well represented, with uniform and level highs that accurately represent all the harmonics and subtleties of the higher frequencies without sounding harsh or abnormally bright. The bass tones are produced in a sealed space, similar to earbuds, resulting in a rich and immersive bass frequency experience.

Design

The D8000 Pro Edition is not only a treat for the ears but also for the eyes. The headphone housing is made with a luxurious and authentic matte finish, offering an elegant and sophisticated aesthetic. The earpads, which greatly influence sound quality, are made of Washi, a traditional Japanese paper known for its exceptional durability, air permeability, moisture control, and antibacterial properties.

Features for the Audiophile

The D8000 Pro Edition comes with an exclusive, easy-to-carry headphone case and two types of detachable cables: a black OFC cable and a silver-plated OFC cable with different terminations. This offers flexibility for various setups and ensures you can enjoy the best sound quality in any situation.

What are the improvements in the Pro Edition version?

The Final D8000 Pro Edition and Final D8000 headphones share identical technology and assembly processes. Their distinction lies in their respective settings and modes of use.

The D8000 Pro Edition offers a sound quality perceived as having greater clarity when listening to rock, pop, and other selections with a narrow dynamic range. In contrast, the classic D8000 is particularly suited for classical music and other selections that have a wide dynamic range.

The D8000 Pro Edition also has a flatter tuning and is designed for higher volume levels. The upper midrange / lower treble has been boosted in the Pro edition, which can make the attack of notes a bit sharper and less rounded than the D8000.

In terms of physical differences, the D8000 Pro Edition has softer earpads compared to the non-pro model. The Pro edition also comes with a 3m silver-plated cable that was sold separately with the D8000, which may account for the slight price difference.
