Description

MySphere 3 by LB-Acoustics Headphones

Based on experiences of the past decades, LB-acoustics developed an unique headphone using revolutionary headband, driver and wiring solutions. MYSPHERE 3 combines great wearing comfort by means of hovering sound frames with industry leading spatiality, single sided fully symmetric wiring, modular setup by magnetic fastening and flexible portability.

Features

SPATIAL SOUND
Supported by the open design, the drivers are kind of levitating, hovering over the ear. The open front cushion enables sound to flow from one side to the other and vice versa. This hover-ear attribute creates an unprecedented binaural effect and sublime spatiality.

TRANSIENT RESPONSE
An ultra light coil and a glass foam membrane with a cobweb structure allow fastest impulse reproduction. All dispensable air volumes like tight channels, slots, holes etc. are largely avoided in order to reduce additional acoustic masses.

OPEN DESIGN
On both sides of the moving membrane the spaces are completely vented. No acoustic volumes hamper the membrane in its movement and the front cushion is acoustically open. This yields an unsuspected sense of space.

INNOVATIVE FRAME CONSTRUCTION
A light metal frame transmits the force from the soft cushions to the head to achieve very small specific surface pressure. Sensitive areas of the head are bypassed resulting in a well-fixed headband carrying the hovering drivers.

All cushions are attached by magnets and can be removed manually without tools.
Additionally, both sides of the earphone can be removed without tools to facilitate the transportability and service.
Since no human head is really symmetric, all adjustments of angle and height have been accomplished without mechanical lock-in positions. A fine scaling allows for easy retrieval of personal settings.

MySphere 3 Version

MYSPHERE 3.1 – 15 Ohms
Optimised in damping for amplifiers with 1030 ohms output impedance. Lower ones tend to acoustically overdamping.

MYSPHERE 3.2 – 110 Ohms
Ideal performance with amplifiers below 10 ohms output impedance. However, amplifiers in pure OTL mode need the 3.2 version as well.

Cushion Options

Sound Frame Cushions Standard
The allrounder among the sound frame cushions offers a linear frequency response and an optimal neutral sound.

Sound Frame Cushions Transparent
This sound frame cushion achieves the highest transparency in the sound image, which makes it specifically impressive for classical music.

Sound Frame Cushions Bass
This version achieves significantly stronger bass levels when applied close to the ear. As soon as the sound frames are moved farther away from the ear, the overall sound image is much alike as with our “Standard” cushions.
