ABYSS
Сайт:https://eu.abyss-headphones.com
ABYSS is an American headphone brand whose planar-magnetic designs are entirely conceived, engineered, manufactured and assembled in Buffalo, New York, rather than outsourced to the Asian contract manufacturers most rivals rely on for driver production and final assembly.
Range & what it's known for
ABYSS specialises exclusively in flagship open-back planar-magnetic headphones, led by the AB-1266 and more recent Diana series, both built around in-house planar drivers designed and wound at the company's own Buffalo facility rather than sourced from third-party OEM suppliers. The brand's defining engineering trait is full vertical integration - driver design, magnet-array engineering, diaphragm production and final headphone assembly all happen under one American roof, a level of self-sufficiency few headphone makers of any size can match. The Diana series in particular pursued a lighter, more compact take on ABYSS's planar formula, aimed at everyday comfort without sacrificing the open, transparent character the AB-1266 established.
Who owns it and where it's made
ABYSS operates as a division of JPS Labs LLC, the American cable and audio-accessory manufacturer also headquartered in Buffalo, New York. Every headphone is designed and built at JPS Labs' own Buffalo facility, giving the two brands shared engineering resources, quality control and manufacturing infrastructure under common ownership.
The lineup in this catalog
Headphones (2). Prices span roughly 2,000 dollars for the Diana series to over 5,000 dollars for the flagship AB-1266, positioning ABYSS firmly at the reference end of the planar-magnetic headphone market.
Who it's for
ABYSS suits headphone enthusiasts seeking an US-designed and US-manufactured planar-magnetic flagship rather than a rebadged driver platform sourced from an overseas OEM, and listeners who specifically prioritise open-back transparency and driver-level engineering control over portability, isolation or wireless convenience.
