As the worthy successor to the Illumination, Illustrious continues to emphasize pristine bass reproduction while maintaining a smooth treble extension that meets the rigorous standards of professionals.
Inheriting the 11mm patented high-performance dynamic driver from the Illumination, we have upgraded the diaphragm and magnetic circuit materials, improved manufacturing precision, and enhanced the acoustic front cavity design. This not only significantly improves frequency bandwidth and reduces nonlinear distortion but also further optimizes the smoothness of the mid-treble frequency response.
Based on LCP dome technology, a high-rigidity artificial diamond layer is applied through a deposition process. This diamond layer, which features an SP3 bond significantly stronger than that of DLC material, enhances the rigidity of the dome. As a result, the material exhibits improved internal damping, leading to better treble performance with smoother extension and finer details compared to its predecessor.
To ensure optimal bass dynamics and minimal distortion at large amplitudes, a flexible, high-damping polyurethane material is used for the suspension. The composite diaphragm is made from three high-performance materials, allowing this exceptional dynamic driver to deliver outstanding audio quality.
To meet the demands of professional users who require accurate treble reproduction, Illustrious has redesigned the front cavity acoustic structure. This design eliminates standing waves and reduces the impact of high-frequency diffraction, further optimizing treble smoothness. The result is a more refined timbre and richer detail.
The Illustrious maintains a strictly neutral tuning profile, faithfully adhering to the Diffuse-Field HRTF (Head-Related Transfer Function) standard. With near-zero bass coloration and imperceptible high-frequency resonance artifacts, it achieves reference-class signal reproduction accuracy. This engineering precision establishes it as both an indispensable tool for critical monitoring in professional audio analysis, and a discerning choice for audiophiles seeking uncompromising playback fidelity with high-resolution recordings.
With advancements in diaphragm materials and driver technology, the nonlinear distortion of Illustrious is significantly lower compared to the previous generation of products. Odd harmonic distortion has been reduced to below 0.01%, providing a pure, natural, and clear high-quality sound.
Additionally, considering the needs of most users, it includes a 0.78mm interchangeable cable with both 3.5mm single-ended and 4.4mm balanced interchangeable plugs.
