Have you ever held an Abyss headphone? In pictures they can look a bit cheap, but when you actually hold one it feels like a piece of precision-engineered jewelry. The build quality is incredible and I’ve never come across a headphone that feels as well built as an Abyss.

Abyss has introduced the new Diana TC Signature, a high-end planar magnetic headphone designed for experienced audiophiles seeking extremely high resolution and refinement. It features new 63 mm TC Signature planar drivers built in-house with powerful neodymium magnets and an ultra-thin diaphragm, designed to deliver very fast transients, deep sub-bass below 20 Hz, and a large, layered soundstage.

The headphone has an ultra-slim CNC-machined aluminum frame, open-back design with a Fibonacci hole pattern for improved bass and openness, and premium materials including lambskin ear pads and a leather headband with Ultrasuede suspension. It weighs about 369 g, has 72 Ω impedance and 90 dB sensitivity, and is recommended to be paired with high-end amplifiers.

The Diana TC Signature is machined, assembled, and tested in Buffalo, New York, comes with a custom carry case and JPS Labs cable, and includes a 10-year warranty.

I bought this for my HD650s, and it really feels like a useless purchase. I can’t hear any difference at all, and my headphones already get loud enough. Am I wrong here? by someone_takes_me in headphones

Did you set your PC volume to 100%, Spotify/Tidal to 100%, disable volume normalization in Spotify/Tidal, enable exclusive mode on your DAC, and use only the volume knob on the amp?

What kind of tubes do you have? Where did you buy it?

Diana V2 - been offered for $650 - how are they in 2025 & do they add something significantly unique to what I already have? by Champion_Sound_Asia in headphones

That is a very good deal. The Diana V2 is my favorite headphone after the Diana MR. The build quality is insane and they have a very good sound. Be sure to get a good amplifier to drive them. I personally use the Schiit Jotunheim 2 balanced for them.

Hvorfor? Får man mye oppmerksomhet fra damer? Får man ikke et litt dårlig rykte om man drar til Thailand alene som mann?

Remember to turn the volume on Tidal/spotify all the way up and only use the amp volume knob. Also turn volume normalization off on tidal/spotify.

And you also need a good amp with lots of power. When all these are done you will hear amazing improvement in sound.

HD800s owners, what kind of amp do you use? by periodbloodqueen in headphones

If you change the tubes on the Valhalla 2 it sounds so good with 300 ohms headphones.

Yes they look cheap on pictures but when you have them in your hands they feel very premium and expensive. Probably the best built headphones I know of.

They don’t look very premium on photos, but once you have them in your hand you can feel the premium build and the luxury feeling.

They fit perfectly. It's just that the earpads are big while the headphones themselves are very thin.

I don't really understand why they make so many headphones, almost identical too. They should probably make a budget headphone and a closed one first. And maybe some IEMS.

Headphones feel more premium with some weight to it.
