Het merk Ultrasone zal weinig mensen bekend in de oren klinken, toch is het een gerespecteerd merk op vooral hoofdtelefoon gebied. Ultrasone is de bedenker van het S-Logic systeem en maakt ook headphones voor andere merken zoals de Ortofon O-One en de Ecler ECH-602. Ultrasone komt nu met de Pro 900, een headphone welke voor 599 US dollars over de toonbank zou moeten gaan en de gebruiker voor dat geld een waanzinnig goed geluid terug zou moeten geven... volgens Ultrasone tenminste.

Ultrasone debuts new PRO 900 headphone feature titanium-plated drivers, velvet earpads & new technology for improved tonal perception
Ultrasone Inc., distributor for German headphone manufacturer Ultrasone AG, is product to announce the first headphone in the PRO Series with S-Logic™ Plus technology: the PRO 900. This new technology results in an impartial acoustic feeling that allows the listener even more of a spacious tonal perception, resulting in a headphone experience that is second to none.

Ultrasone’s PRO 900s are closed-back headphones that boast a classic black design, velvet covered black and silver ear pads and a diamond-cut logo insignia. The PRO 900 features a new 40mm titan-plated driver and a new soft USC-Cable that is paired with Neutrik connectors. Ultrasone’s newest headphones contain MU-Metal shielding (ULE technology) that reduce the amount of radiation directed to the listener by up to 98%, as compared to conventional headphones. The new headphones also contain Ultrasone’s patented S-Logic™ Plus technology for reduced sound pressure on the ear drum and improved tonal perception. Ultrasone’s PRO 900 comes in a hard-sided carrying case along with two removable cables (one spiral and one straight) and spare ear pads.

S-Logic™ Plus Technology
S-Logic™ Plus is the newest advancement in the S-Logic™ Natural Surround System. By acoustically redesigning the earcups, Ultrasone has squeezed a large soundstage into a more streamlined ear-cup. S-Logic™ Plus profits directly from innovations developed for Ultrasone’s flagship Edition range. This sophisticated new technology combines precision dampening with micro-acoustic reinforcement, allowing driver, buffer-board, and spatial parameters to complement one another in an optimal manner. The result is a most neutral sound impression with more vivid perception of voices and instruments.
