Genuine representative of legendary Japanese perfectionism in audio without compromise, the renowned headphone manufacturer Final has just launched a new reference model based on “planar” technology destined to exceed all expectations regarding tonal accuracy, dynamic response and comfort of use. of type circumaural and baptized with the name D7000, this exceptional product becomes part of the elite of the Japanese firm, especially highlighting the use of a basic conception that benefits from a different approach that of the celebrated D8000 and D8000 Pro Edition, also equipped with planar magnetic transducers. A logical evolution, since the starting point of the Final proposal in “planar” headphones dates back to 2017 and the continuous progress in engineering and materials in search of the ideal structural design has allowed us to redefine a product that at that time was groundbreaking and it still continues to be so.
Hence the two most unique developments incorporated in the D7000: the innovative “Pinna-Aligned Diffuser” and a more efficient version of the exclusive “Air Film Damping System (AFDS)”, the result being a perfect balance between delicacy of “planar” speakers in the reproduction of the high frequencies of the spectrum and the volume and opening of their electrodynamic counterparts in bass restitution. Added to this is greater resolution in the ranges corresponding to voices and string instruments, a contribution that translates into a brighter and smoother sound. In parallel, an exhaustive redesign has allowed a weight reduction of the order of 16% compared to that of the aforementioned “8000” models, contributing substantially to this by the use, in the pads and headband, of a special Washi fabric (a traditional Japanese paper), a material known for its dry touch. , which enhances the comfort and durability.
Concreting a little more into the details of the superb engineering behind the new Final, it is worth noting that the aforementioned “Pinna-Aligned Diffuser” is the direct result of a trend which has become the standard of professional recording studios more advanced: the concept of acoustic tuning through diffusion, materialized in this case in a diffuser whose geometry has been carefully studied (via adaptation to the different shapes of the external ear or “pinna”) so that its behavior is optimal for all types of users. Likewise, the criticisms pads have been designed in such a way as to seal the ears and create a closed space in front of the diaphragm of the transducers, with the scheme “Air Film Damping System (AFDS)” solving the problem of contact between their diaphragm and the magnet that excites them and, ultimately, extending the bass response. without sacrificing wealth or openness. The D7000, which are entirely developed and manufactured in Japan with very high precision tools Dedicated headphones, tuned by Final, come complete with aluminum-magnesium alloy earcups, audiophile-grade (OFC) cables and connectors, and a stylish carrying case.
