Isomagnetic ear cushion coupling technology
An innovative design feature developed by Rinaro is the Isomagnetic ear cup
attachment which utilizes the demagnetizing field generated by the driver to
hold the ear cup in place whilst also redirecting the magnetic field back into
the driver and improving driver efficiency.
Easy ear cup adjustment
To easily adjust the ear cups in the right position, you need to simply rotate
the hinge while gently pulling down the ear cup.
Pressure distribution wings
Patented suspension wings increase the leather headrest’s contact surface
area with your head and _ “relieve uncomfortable pressure points.
Aluminium grill
Do not attempt to push the grill, for it may result in permanent damage of
your headphone.
