The qualities of a Valkyria.
Valkyria is an open dynamic headphone, driven by a powerful twin pulse isobaric motor with revolver drive for absolute control of diaphragm movement. Given the exceptional weight/power ratio generated by 40 neodymium magnets, arranged to concentrate the magnetic flux on the moving coil, the four drives push the motor assembly to capture every sound detail, right down to the threshold of audibility. Valkyria is characterized by its extraordinary analytical capabilities, exceptional acoustic resolution, dynamic range, and high-volume precision. The speed of sound transients allows each instrument to be distinguished even in the most intense orchestral passages. Valkyria owes these extraordinary qualities in particular to its titanium frame, as the exceptional rigidity of this metal allows for impressive acoustic focus and positioning. The metal architecture undergoes an anti-reflective and anti-resonant treatment made with a combination of materials including Dynamat Xtreme. Valkyria is designed to ensure maximum comfort thanks to its soft headband and weight distribution, compatible with the specific weight of its structure. A special cable The Valkyria cable, lightweight and highly flexible, deserves a separate chapter. The signal is carried by a fully symmetrical double-wiring structure consisting of a perimeter braid made up of 16 pure silver cables and a coaxial OFC copper core cable per channel, for a total of 36 cables soldered with silver solder directly to the revolver drives, so as not to lose efficiency in current transport. The internal connections between the drives are made of silver.
Finally, the connections to the amplifier use either the 4-pin XLR standard or the double 3-pin XLR. A high-performance headphone such as Valkyria must be supported by a fixed cable which, in addition to being more stable, offers a very large cross-section that contributes to an unparalleled listening experience in terms of transparency, acoustic resolution, speed, dynamics, tonal accuracy, three-dimensionality and naturalness.
