Chroma MD2 discontinued
Magneto-Dynamic Open-Air Reference Headphone
Year: c. 2013
Status: removed from the catalog — replaced by newer generations.
The evolution of the Chroma MD1. The MD2 has a different geometry inside the acoustic chamber of the transducers, giving more air on the rear part, and uses an internal sheathing of natural cork instead of foam. These two modifications keep the natural and transparent sound signature of the MD1 while adding more dynamics and deepness — and the aluminum cans look more refined and smooth to the touch.
An essential high-end headphone for demanding audiophiles: CNC aluminum shells, titanium components, large selected 53mm speakers, quality leather headband. Despite the minimalist look it is a top-notch hi-tech piece of engineering; ultra light weight and large soft pads make it the most comfortable Chroma.
Hand made in Italy with accurate selection of components. Also available with balanced termination as the Chroma MD2-b.
