AES Show, New York, NY (October 8, 2024) – ADAM Audio (booth 419) has announced the arrival of the H200 closed-back studio headphones, bringing ADAM Audio’s engineering heritage to a new monitoring format.
Several years in the making, the H200 was designed from the ground up at ADAM Audio’s R&D department in Berlin, which has expanded to include a dedicated team of industry-leading headphone engineers.
The headphone’s 40mm PEEK diaphragm drivers and patent-pending internal airflow technology deliver the exceptional sound quality for which ADAM Audio is known, with the iconic S Series used as a benchmark for tonality. Carefully considered headband physics ensure a comfortable fit, with memory foam-based earpads providing excellent isolation.
With decades of use and environmental factors in mind, modularity and materials played an important role during the development process. Both the earpads and the headband padding are easily replaceable, and the durable main cable is attachable to either side of the headphone. The packaging is paper-based, while the driver housing consists of 85% post-consumer recycled ABS plastic. A high-quality carry bag is included for storage and transportation.
ADAM Audio Headphone Utility Plug-In
A distinct advantage of the H200 is the purpose-built ADAM Audio Headphone Utility DAW plug-in, which was built in collaboration with industry partners Sonnox. The included software offers a range of optimization tools for the H200, as well as the Externalization feature that uses advanced crossfeed techniques to better translate loudspeaker mixes to headphones.
The H200 will be available to demo at AES New York (Oct 08-10), Music China Shanghai (Oct 10-13), Amsterdam Dance Event (Oct 17-19), and LEaT con Hamburg (Oct 22-24).
The new ADAM Audio H200 headphones will be available in stores from November with suggested retail pricing as follows:
$149.99 (USD)
£ 139.99 (GBP)
€ 159.99 (EU)
