The Edition XV places a large planar magnetic driver on each side of the ear. The membrane, driven across its whole surface, moves as one piece rather than in zones. The bass holds its shape and the midrange stays readable.
The open cups let the rear wave escape instead of sending it back at the membrane. Internal reflections drop, and the soundstage widens past the ears. It is the choice of home-listening headphones over isolation.
The over-ear pads surround the ear without pressing on it. The headband spreads the weight for long listening. The Edition XV aims for the comfort of a living-room headphone, worn for hours.
The Edition XV continues the Edition XS approach: an accessible open planar, meant as a first serious headphone. It plugs into a headphone amp or a dedicated output. The sound favours balance over effect.
