Germany based Ultrasone has introduced its new standard in high-end headphones, Edition 9 headphones, which are regarded to be the world’s best Headphones. The Edition 9 headphones make use of Ultrasone’s finest titanium plated drivers to deliver astounding sonic clarity and transparency.

The Edition 9 headphones have made use of black chrome to a great extent in both the ear cups and nameplates. Ethiopian sheep leather has been used in the ear pads and headband pad, thereby ensuring maximum comfort and pleasure to the listener. The headphones are packed in a sleek, metal attaché case for safe storage and transportation.

Cathy Kelly, President of Ultrasone of America, LLC said, “Ultrasone continues the tradition of releasing exclusive, high end, collectors Edition’s headphones with the Edition 9. Our collectors series, beginning with the Edition 7 release 2 years ago, will appeal to the true audiophile, and symbolizes our commitment to headphones. We build only headphones, and we build the best.”

As with all their headphones, Ultrasone has incorporated S-Logic technology into the Edition 9 headphones aswell, displaying the unique blend of natural surround technology and reduced sound pressure levels. S-Logic technology reduces sound pressure to the eardrums by an astounding 40%, while delivering the listener an amazing natural surround sound effect. Moreover, the headphones address the issue of reducing electromagnetic field radiation, commonly associated with cell phone use, by up to 98%.

So get your hands on them soon because the Edition 9 are a limited edition. The $1,500 Edition 9 headphones will be shown today at the Audio Engineering Society show in San Francisco, where you can judge yourself if these are indeed the World’s Best Headphones.
