Heres the link to our new Dekoni Audio Fenestrated Sheepskin pads for the Abyss Diana!
Hey Head-Fi
It's Dylan the Product Manager at Dekoni Audio. I decided to make a little post today about these pads as there was a lot of product designing involved!
Its really hard to design ear pads for the thinnest planar package on the planet, but I think I did pretty decent maintaining the beautiful sound signature of the Diana(according to my listening tests and in house measurements). These measurements were done on a Diana V2:
Why are we only offering one style? Because unfortunately other materials didn't sound good with the shape I was going for. At the core of Dekoni's mantra is comfort and the Fenestrated Sheepskin style offers comfort and a good sound signature(IMO). These pads of course have Dekoni's high density memory foam and such, but I think what I did to flatten the face surface of the ear pad allows for better seal and more direct sound. This also helps seal around the jaw better which is a concern with some.
At the end of the day it took me about 5 revisions to get to this point, typically it takes 2 or 3. Thats why I figured I write this one up! I'm a bit more attached to this one than my other designs. Tag us when you share your opinions! I Would love to read them so I can make better ear pads in the future!
Heres the announcement!
