Description

Details

Featuring Sound Isolating™ earphones and a matched DAC amplifier, the KSE1500 delivers a premium, customizable listening experience with portable media players.

The world’s first electrostatic Sound Isolating™ earphones.

Electrostatic technology provides the fastest, most accurate transient response available. Until now, it has never been applied to Sound Isolating earphones.

Each earphone features a virtually weightless, massless diaphragm surrounded by an electrostatic field generated by back plates that manage charge oscillation. The result is unmatched clarity and detail with an extremely high correlation to the source audio.
