The open-back design of NightHawk’s speaker enclosures-its earcups-enables an expanded, three-dimensional soundstage with natural dynamics and smooth, coherent performance that extends into the lowest and highest octaves.Īs with any open-back headphone, the open area had to be protected by a grille to prevent damage to the headphone’s precision-made internal parts. The NightHawk is a semi open headphone with a special grill for less coloration: Compared to traditional lacquers, varnishes, and poly finishes, our coating is environmentally sustainable and poses no health hazards for the technicians who apply it. The virtue and beauty of this revolutionary material shines through a durable UV coating, the careful processing of which almost completely eliminates emissions of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and hazardous air pollutants (HAPs). NightHawk’s earcups are made from all-natural Liquid Wood, which itself is made from 100% renewable raw materials: lignin, natural fibers, resins, and waxes, combined and treated in such a way that the resulting material can be injection molded. Indeed, the wood is special, as it seems that the cups are made from liquidwood. The first thing that drew my attention was the wooden cups and how smooth they were. I won’t get into all the details but I will refer some of them here. Where do I start, there are so many things to be said about how this headphone was built. While I didn’t quite managed to get how it sounded at the show, due to insufficient time, these headphones had something that impressed me.ĭue to HighEndAudio Audio store in Bucharest, I have managed to get a loaner unit for this review. These headphones managed to get my attention since Canjam 2015 in Essen.
