Superior sound, tangible quality
Sit back, relax and prepare to experience a new level of audio excellence. These headphones combine cutting-edge technology with the finest craftsmanship, for the ultimate listening experience.
Every note, every nuance.
Capture pure sound
The newly developed diaphragm with magnesium dome and liquid crystal polymer edge enables up to 120 kHz playback in High Resolution Audio. The result is unparalleled sound purity and precision.
Pure sound, no added noise
Filtering out the unnecessary
A special acoustic filter controls the air resistance and eliminates any reverberations produced by driver movement, so that only clean, crisp frequencies get through.
Ergonomic
Sheepskin ear pads
The ergonomically crafted headphones are designed to comfortably encase your head in sound, preventing any from leaking and effectively delivering powerful lows. The genuine sheepskin ear pads cushion your ears in luxurious softness.
Enfolding design structure
The enfolding design is tailored to wrap around the ear, sealing music in and keeping distractions out. Acoustics are reflected back towards your ears for the subtlest of sounds.
Titanium and leather headband
Flexible and light, yet durable, for a more natural over-ear fit. Beta titanium has high elasticity, which will return to its original shape even when bent. Genuine leather adds sturdiness and comfort.
Long wear comfort-optimized
The hanger and slider are manufactured with thin and high rigid aluminum alloy, which provides optimal comfort for a long period of time without secular change.
Raising the bar on audio standards
The MDR-Z1R headphones have been engineered to deliver a wider frequency range, reproducing super low and super high frequencies of up to 120 kHz. The wider dynamic range richly reproduces every minuscule sound. The result is an immersive, captivating listening experience.
Hard case for storage
The headphones and accompanying cables come presented in a stylish storage case, with separated compartments and a luxury satin lining.
Φ4.4-mm balanced connection cable
The newly developed Φ4.4-mm balanced connection cable separates left and right sound signals, while minimizing signal transmission loss and resulting sound deterioration. The result is smoother high frequencies and superior sound quality.
Silver-coated oxygen-free copper
The MDR-Z1R uses silver-coated oxygen-free copper cables, designed to minimize resistance and signal-transmission loss. The result is less sound degradation, finer detail and smoother treble sounds.
