Moondrop has released the Moondrop Horizon headphones – the new product is equipped (unlike previous planar models) with a dynamic ULT driver with a diameter of 50 mm, an inclined system arrangement and a dual-magnet design.
The design uses a high-quality dome made of PEN material with a titanium coating and a dual-layer suspension made of liquid silica gel. The titanium coating increases the rigidity of the diaphragm and improves the accuracy of reproduction. The dual-layer suspension made of liquid silica gel contributes to faster movement of the diaphragm.
To improve efficiency and minimize distortion, Moondrop Horizon uses a dual-sided magnetic design with two sets of N55 neodymium magnets and a flux of 1.85 T. The design is optimized using FEA modeling technology. In addition, the drivers are installed at an angle, which improves sound perception and spatial stage. The Horizon headphones are designed in an open acoustic design in accordance with its own target frequency response - VDSF, which provides a neutral sound profile with high detail. The headphones are equipped with dual 3.5 mm connectors and come with a standard high-purity copper connection cable. The kit also includes interchangeable plugs - a mini-jack to 3.5 mm and Pentaconn 4.4 mm.
Moondrop Horizon headphones are available now for a suggested retail price of $ 199.99.

Moondrop has introduced new isodynamic headphones Moondrop Para 2. The use of a very large isodynamic driver with a diameter of 100 mm with FDT (Full-Drive Technology) and an ultra-thin 1.2 µm membrane etched from pure silver allowed to create a very impressive model.
Music First Audio has introduced the new Music First Audio LP 103 LCR phonostage – a highly flexible model, ideal for working with both moving magnet (MM) and moving coil (MC) cartridges.
For its 30th anniversary, AVID has released a new turntable, the AVID Relveo – the device sports a new conical suspension system for better vibration suppression and a dual-belt drive.
The company MSB Technology presented a very interesting solution to the eternal problem that arises after the introduction of an active subwoofer into the path - interference from the power amplifiers built into the bass modules can degrade the signal quality, transmitting noise back into the signal lines. The MSB Technology The Pro Sub Isolator is designed to correct this drawback.
To celebrate its 80th anniversary, Sennheiser has released a limited edition of the Momentum Wireless 4 wireless headphones – Sennheiser Momentum 4 Wireless “Bond Truluv”, styled after the works of the avant-garde graffiti artist.
