Your favorite music erupts from a silent background taking on a life of its own. The sense of space is enormous, the midrange and high frequencies offer fantastic detail so you can hear further into the recording with more air and separation between performers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eDesigned, Engineered and Handcrafted in the USA\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe LCD-XC headphone is thoroughly engineered and meticulously hand-built using the finest, most luxurious materials combined with cutting-edge planar magnetic technology.

The new LCD steel \u0026amp; leather suspension headband provides comfort for hours of listening pleasure. Choose between genuine leather or leather-free earpads that are filled with carefully selected acoustical foam for best fit and sound. You can pair the LCD-XC with portable devices, but it sounds best driven by a quality amplifier.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYou’ll be proud of how the LCD-XC looks and sounds; it’s imbued with sophisticated looks and beautiful earcups that are manufactured at our facility.

AMTS is an inline device placed between the transducer and ear. It integrates waveguides, diffusion control, quarter-wave, and Helmholtz resonators into one compact structure. Diffusion elements reduce some of the standing wave formation while resonators act as both precision and broad filters to smooth and shape the frequency response, reducing the amplitude of response peaks and troughs from the midrange through the highest frequencies.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe upshot is AMTS greatly reduces standing waves so high frequencies are rendered with a refreshingly smooth, accurate, and detailed delivery across all genres.

It features a refined version of DCA’s Acoustic Metamaterial Tuning System, and it’s lightweight and extremely comfortable with the same “melt onto your head” build that’s made DCA a go-to brand for comfort. Particularly noteworthy are the visually striking Gorilla Glass ear cups developed to relieve pressure and decrease fatigue.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eE3 follows in the footsteps of its older siblings with a classic Harman tuning. There’s tastefully elevated bass with linear extension into the lows, an extra midbass bump and solid fundamentals in the treble. E3 is also surprisingly open-sounding and surpasses expectations for a closed-back with its width and height in the soundstage achieving a \"legendary open-back listening experience in a closed headphone.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLike most DCA cans, E3 is a bit tougher to drive than most headphones, and seems to sing sweeter with an amp that provides a lot of juice.

E3 not only brings this ground-breaking technology to a more affordable headphone, it does so with a new mode of implementation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAll headphones are subject to HF standing waves which can make treble sound harsh, fatiguing, or synthetic. AMTS is a patent pending inline device placed between the transducer and ear that integrates waveguides, diffusion control, and resonators into one compact structure that eliminates standing waves while giving us complete control of the high frequency response profile.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAMTS isn't a \"one size fits all\" technology. It's custom tuned for each headphone to deliver an optimized experience for each transducer. For E3, DCA developed a new mode of deployment that delivers an absolutely superbly rendered top-end that will surprise and delight, with a tone that is remarkably lifelike.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg alt=\"DCA AMTS material over black background\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0023\/9255\/5595\/files\/dca-e3-amts.jpg?v=1701379067\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003ePlanar Driver Performance Revisited\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eE3’s all-new 5th gen planar-magnetic driver incorporates innovative diaphragms made on an all-new tensioning system for a more uniform and consistent performance. New diaphragm materials combined with highly optimized \"V-Planar knurling\" deliver a remarkably smooth frequency response with low distortion throughout the listening range for levels of detail more often found in TOTL electrostatics.

However, the drawback to such speakers is that they lack the ability to move sufficient air mass to produce the quality of bass most listeners prefer. And while Dynamic drivers provide excellent bass by moving significant amounts of air, due to their mass, they cannot provide the crystal clear mid and high frequencies of which Planar Magnetics are capable. By utilizing both Dynamic and Planar Magnetic speakers, Noble FoKus Apollo provides the clarity needed while retaining the bass demanded.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat is Hybrid ANC?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHybrid ANC is a type of active noise cancellation that uses microphones on both the inside and outside of the headphone to cancel out ambient noise.

This wood is a top-grade raw material for musical instruments and fiber products, known for its clear sound and natural tone. Spruce wood undergoes a series of processes, including soaking, cooking, and beating, to create specific wood pulp. To meet acoustic toughness requirements, a precise proportion of carbon fiber material is added.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTo fully unleash the acoustic performance of the nanowood fibers, light PU material with high internal resistance is utilized for the suspension gasket, improving diaphragm compliance.

Combined with a low-distortion driver and optimized internal structure, this creates a surprisingly open and immersive sound experience, almost forgetting it’s a closed-back design.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg alt=\"Final Audio DX3000 CL headphone closeup of washi + carbon diaphragm\" height=\"1360\" width=\"2048\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0023\/9255\/5595\/files\/final-dx3000cl-driver.webp?v=1772228113\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWashi + Carbon Composite Diaphragm\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe driver’s diaphragm uses a special composite material made by infusing carbon fiber into traditional Japanese Washi paper. This creates a lightweight, rigid, and responsive diaphragm with excellent internal damping. A “free-edge” design allows smooth diaphragm movement for cleaner, low-distortion sound, while a glass-fiber-reinforced resin front plate adds structural rigidity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eRear Diffuser Array Structure\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInside the housing, an advanced Rear Diffuser Array breaks up parallel surfaces and scatters internal reflections. This design effectively suppresses unwanted resonance and creates a clear, controlled acoustic space that sounds remarkably open for a closed-back headphone.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eRepairable Construction for Longevity\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe DX4000 CL is designed with long-term use in mind.

The result is DCA's most easily driven headphone to date. At 97 dB\/mW sensitivity, ÆON CORE pairs comfortably with portable DAC\/amps, dongles, and desktop gear alike.

The original Harman curve was derived using a custom measurement pinna unavailable to anyone else, so all measurements comparing Headphones to the target curve actually contained a small error. Clark and Olive published an AES paper with a corrected curve that reflects the measurement system used by Audio professionals worldwide.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe practical effect is a tuning that's subtly but meaningfully different from prior ÆON models: a slightly warmer mid-range.
