Combining artistry and technical excellence, the ULTRASONE Virtuoso Closed-Back Over-Ear Headphones bridge the best qualities from Astell & Kern and ULTRASONE. Manufactured in Germany, these titanium-plated dynamic driver headphones create an exceptionally natural listening experience, with a wide frequency response from 6 Hz to 42 kHz.
The FGC technology on the headband makes for fatigue-free comfort, while the aluminum housing provides exceptional durability. Based on feedback from audio enthusiasts, the internal circuit board on the headphones has been redesigned to accommodate a 4-pole balanced connection. The Virtuoso includes a detachable oxygen-free copper cable and an aluminum carrying case.
Collaboration with ULTRASONE
Partnering with one of audio's finest brands, ULTRASONE brings their precision and high-quality manufacturing to the Astell & Kern lineup of audiophile headphones.
S-Logic 3 Sound Experience
The S-Logic 3 technology delivers a natural spatial effect that is almost identical to professional studio monitors. The Virtuoso therefore provides a personal, portable listening experience that typically can only be heard when in a high-quality studio environment. This also reduces the sound-pressure level by up to 40% at similar volume outputs, reducing listening fatigue substantially.
Double Deflector Fin Technology
Double Deflector Fin (DDF) technology is crucial for the Virtuoso's performance. The result is the ability to partially mask lower midrange frequencies while preserving the directional midrange components, further increasing the natural effect of the S-Logic 3 component.
40mm Dynamic Titanium-Plated Mylar Drivers
The balanced sound signature of the 40mm dynamic titanium-plated Mylar drivers creates an extremely wide frequency response while maintaining the intricacies of previous generation models. With a range from 6 Hz to 42 kHz, sub-lows produce deep, powerful bass that is clear at even low volumes.
Reduced Fatigue with Ultra Low Emission Technology
The proprietary Ultra Low Emission (ULE) technology reduces electromagnetic radiation generated by the drivers, which reduces emissions by an incredible 98%. This ensures much safer listening periods and a more comfortable experience as a whole.
A Strong Balanced Connection
The included balanced cable accommodates a 4-point connection that is made from oxygen-free copper, therefore increases the overall electrical efficiency of the headphones.
Comfortable and Advanced Headband
The headband is made with FGC technology that is indented in the center of the headband, which minimizes pressure to allow for an extremely comfortable fit. Made with Alcantara materials, the Virtuoso is extremely lightweight, sitting just under 1 lb (400g).
Made in Germany
The Virtuoso is meticulously assembled in Germany at ULTRASONE's factory. Using only the highest quality components, these are headphones that maintain a lush history since 1989.
