Product Description

What would Darth Vader wear?

We’ve heard that His Darthness likes to take a break from Total Universal Domination to listen to some of his favorite recordings - like those of the high pitched screams of foes being frozen in Carbonite or the incredible bass and dynamic power of total planetary destruction. But old-school in-ears won’t satisfy Mr. Vader - to properly reproduce those favorite sounds, he’ll require the new helmet-friendly iSINE from Audeze. Available in “Master of the Evil Universe” matte black.

The world’s first planar magnetic in-ears must be heard to be believed. They're a completely different listening experience than any other in-ears. To be blunt, if you must have complete sound isolation, buy something else. But if you want the widest, most accurate soundstage, the best bass response (flat to 10 Hz!), the best transient response and coherent soundfield, then the iSINEs are definitely for you. They are also exceedingly comfortable, as they just rest at the entrance to your ear canal – they do not have to be jammed down your ear to sound good. You could say “these are the in-ear headphones for people who don’t like in-ears.”

Also available with our Cipher Lightning cable for an integrated amp/DAC solution for Apple users.

Audeze iSINE10 Planar Magnetic in-ear Headphones

iSINE10 & iPhone

The superiority of Planar Magnetic drivers

Unlike conventional headphones, Audeze’s planar drivers use a very, very thin film (much thinner than Saran Wrap for example) to move the air that produces sound. Because this material has such low mass compared to conventional headphone drivers, it moves extremely fast, thus giving much better transient response/impulse response. This means percussive sounds like the snare drum, strumming acoustic guitar, popping strings on a bass (and car crashes!), all sound much more accurate and lifelike. Additionally, Audeze headphones’ Step Response test is always positive - just like real world sounds, which is not always true of conventional headphones.

So conventional drivers not only have more moving mass (the cone, the surround, the voice coil, the spider, and the glue holding everything together), they also have more distortion than Audeze’s planar drivers. In fact, our drivers may have as little as 1/10 the distortion of other headphones.

All of this means more accurate, and therefore, more realistic sound.

ABOUT AUDEZE

image of headphones

Audeze started in 2008 in a garage (of course!) when its founders came across a revolutionary flexible circuit material developed for NASA. Realizing this could be a great advance in planar magnetic technology, they first started to make pro audio PA speakers, but dropped this project and started making headphones – the LCD-1.

Taking this first headphone to the Rocky Mountain Audio Fest, it was a tremendous hit, and that success launched the company. Hanging on that garage wall was the 2001 Space Odyssey poster, and that inspired the company’s name. The founders wanted a name that had something to do with a “journey through audio,” so Odyssey would be perfect, and that’s how the name Audeze (pronounced “odyssey”) was born.

AUDEZE'S PLANAR MAGNETIC TECHNOLOGY

technical breakdown of headphones

Acoustically engineered for accuracy

Audeze’s innovative planar magnetic technology delivers clear and accurate sound that reveals everything on the recording.

Diaphragms thinner than a human hair

We use space-age materials in an ultra thin diaphragm four times larger than typical headphones for fast response times, dramatically reduced distortion, higher resolution and improved imaging.

Near zero distortion

Magnet arrays delivers a uniform driving force across the entire diaphragm for near zero distortion.

Fluxor magnets

Our patented Fluxor magnet design has almost 2x the efficiency of other magnets, giving the iSINE a more dynamic impact.

    Amazing sound quality, wide sound stage, amazing sound separation.
    5 Stars
    Amazing sound quality, wide sound stage, amazing sound separation.
    I didn't expect regular 3.5mm jack because I ordered iPhone cable version, but! they included 3.5mm too. this one (as of July 3, 2019) I got Cipher cable 2 version. Cipher cable 2nd version is round cable, not flat cable. I saw audio profiling and cipher cable 1 had better sound...but I expect little in neither of these versions because I am going to use it with my own portable DAC/AMP any way. I am going to use Cipher cable on the go and when I play PUBG Mobile. but I found Cipher cable gives more clarity and opens up more sound stage and bring instruments more forward.Sound:This one is like having Fostex t60 series in your ear. (I have it)even if you get $500 IEM you can tell "it is amazing IEM". I mean I.E.M. still IEM...but this one sounds like Over the Ear head phone in your ear. sound separation is really good. vocal...I will mention it later, but good!, amazing details on string instruments...again AMAZING SOUND REPRODUCTION, this is Viagra of sound waves.the only problem was their sound curve. I heard expert said cut some mids off by Audeze Equalizer App. after I did some experiments, I adjusted like the picture and, vocal became more clear, came little forward. without adjustment, vocals sounded like little mumble? I felt like there are great instruments around me and the singer is singing wearing a cardboard box over her head. adjusting mids took that cardboard box off. I listened to Saboten Doll, Aoi Teshima, Mika Nakashima, Adele, through iPhone with Cipher Cable. This is my personal SETTING, I am not a big fan of lows, I like classics and vocals, strings. So I did not touch lows.wow....Amazing details on highs...DETAILS! not artificially BOOSTED up highs. I noticed no distortion on across hear-able volume levels... IT ROCKED on my PUBG MOBILE game too....and very good price.
