D8000 Pro Gold - Limited Edition
Final have released a Limited Model of the flagship D8000 Pro Edition headphones, with a new stylish finishing concept and further upgrades. A luxurious and authentic matte black finish is applied throughout, and dry gold-plated perforated metal is used for the AFDS driver. The structural and acoustic design of the driver, and dedicated housing construction which optimizes sound, have been retained.
High-grade Washi (Japanese paper) with excellent durability, air permeability, moisture control, and antibacterial/odour-eliminating properties is used as the earpads' material, providing the best fit and comfort. A dedicated Attache Case-Type New Carrying Case with TRAVEL SENTRY® Approved Lock. Two types of detachable cable, OFC silver-coated balanced cable and OFC black balanced cable for portable use are included as accessories, making it a full-fledged package that is truly the pinnacle of the Pro range.
The ultimate in pro audio.
Newly-Developed Air Film Damping System
With D8000 Pro Limited Edition, the problem with the diaphragm coming into contact with magnets has been solved through AFDS (Air Film Damping System), and it has become possible to lower the frequency limit of the bass that the driver unit can reproduce. Combined with newly developed breathable earpads, the rich bass sound with a sense of openness which normally can only achievable with superior dynamic driver becomes possible.
Delicate High Frequencies
In reproducing subtle high frequencies, the lightweight nature of the diaphragm comes before anything else. Compared to other dynamic models with the same driver diameter, D8000 Pro Limited Edition's diaphragm is 1/3 lighter. With the D8000 Pro Limited Edition, problems originating from the adhesive have been fundamentally resolved, and the reproduction of a delicate sound in high frequency range has been achieved.
Newly-Developed Open Earpads
With D series, the reproduction band of bass frequencies has been extended through AFDS, and it has become possible to sufficiently reproduce bass frequencies even with earpads that are not sealed tightly just with driver unit ability. For the D8000 Pro Limited Edition, the earpads that greatly influence sound quality have been newly developed from Washi, a Japanese traditional paper, which has excellent durability, air permeability, moisture control, and antibacterial/odour-eliminating properties.
Machined Aluminium Magnesium Alloy Housing
To establish AFDS, an extremely high level of precision compared to typical driver units is necessary. Because of this, the machined aluminium magnesium alloy housing has been machined with great precision and applied with luxurious and authentic matte black finish.
Manufactured at Final’s Own Factory
The D8000 Pro Limited Edition is manufactured at our own factory in Japan. To create truly good products, it is necessary to get to the core of the manufacturing process of parts close to the raw material. What is good about "made in Japan" is that when doing so, you can gain the cooperation of those manufacturers close to the material. By controlling everything together, from sourcing the raw materials through to the assembly of the product, we have achieved high-quality products.
Comparing D8000 and D8000 Pro Limited Edition
D8000 Pro Limited Edition has undergone retuning of driver units which adopt the Air Film Damping System (AFDS) in accordance with actual use for professional sound recordings. As a result of the new tuning the D8000 Pro Limited Edition provides sound quality perceived to be of higher clarity when listening to rock, pop and other selections featuring a narrow dynamic range in contrast to the D8000, which is suitable particularly for classical music and other selections that feature a wide dynamic range.
Updated Accessories
Two types of detachable cable, OFC black balanced cable (4.4mm TRRRS/1.5m) and OFC silver-coated balanced cable (XLR 4-pin/3m) are included as accessories. Also included with the D8000 Pro Limited Edition is an exclusive headphone hard case with TRAVEL SENTRY® approved lock.
