The time has come: starting today, the first production batch of the Astell & Kern X ULTRASONE VIRTUOSO is being completed.
It has become an excellent pair of headphones that does several things differently compared to our ULTRASONE Signature models.
The VIRTUOSO completely avoids the use of leather and instead uses more aluminum throughout the product. Both the high-quality case and the ear cups are made from this material. With a refined sound compared to its base model—the Signature MASTER MkII—this combination also justifies its sales price of 799 USD.
The Astell&Kern X ULTRASONE VIRTUOSO is a high-end headphone offering several outstanding features.
The immersive S-Logic®3 technology ensures a natural spatial sound reproduction and intensifies the listening experience.
ULTRASONE’s exclusive DDF technology (Double Deflector Fins) enables even more precise sound reproduction.
The VIRTUOSO features aluminum ear cups and special nameplates developed exclusively for this model.
It is equipped with a balanced 4.4 mm Pentaconn connector and a high-quality screw-lock cable for optimal signal transmission.
The headphones are manufactured in Germany and are aimed at audiophiles seeking a first-class listening experience. Delivery is planned for February 2025.
The Astell & Kern model also introduces something new: it is the first headphone we have released with only a 4.4 mm balanced cable included. In Europe this may still be somewhat unusual, but it represents the future of audiophile listening—a future that has long been the present in Asia.
My opinion on this:
We are proud of this product and wish our cooperation partner great success with this fantastic device.
All the effort and the focus on quality and premium materials down to the smallest detail have truly paid off.
The first independent tests have been very promising, because one thing is undisputed in the world of audio:
The best sound comes from ULTRASONE!
