Headphones

"Pioneer’s history in quality audio equipment began 80 years ago, with the vision of ‘delivering the joy of music to people far and wide’. In 1937, we produced the A-8, the first dynamic speaker to be produced in Japan, and we have been committed to high fidelity sound reproduction ever since. Whether we are making home speakers, car speakers or headphones, our focus is always on the pure, faithful reproduction of sound. We have been developing and producing groundbreaking headphones for more than half a century, starting with the SE-1 headphones in 1960. Now we are writing the next chapter in our long history of technical supremacy and purity in sound design".

Make a telepathic connection to music with the SE-MONITOR5. As a fully-enclosed dynamic stereo headphone that provides an excellent listening environment, focus is placed on faithful reproduction of Hi-Res Audio formats. Yet Pioneer has voiced them to convey music’s emotional intent for a listening experience that moves mind and soul. Achieving this meant exploring new driver materials, innovating structures that limit resonance, and introducing proven technologies unveiled with our SE-MASTER1 flagship. Blending time-tested approaches with the latest in materials science, these headphones let music unfurl over a vast soundstage with localization, detail, and control that’s captivating.

Introducing the SE-CH9T from Pioneer, a premium dynamic headphone delivering immersive Hi-Res Audio in comfort. Original drivers developed for Hi-Res Audio reproduce frequencies between 5 Hz–50 kHz, allowing the true harmonic character of audible sound to be reproduced while restoring a sense of spaciousness to your music. Airflow Control Port assists by separating mid- and low-frequency bands, bringing the richness of vocals to life in stunning detail. Nozzles are of brass-and-aluminium construction to prevent resonance, serving controlled, punchy bass in any music played on a smartphone or Digital Audio Player. Inline mic and controls, detachable over-the-ear cables, and reinforced ear tips make these headphones a comfortable choice for high-definition sound on the go.

With more smartphones and most Digital Audio Players offering Hi-Res Audio support, it’s important your next set of headphones is ready to exploit these high-fidelity formats to the fullest potential. The SE-CH5T headphone is certified for Hi-Res Audio reproduction with 40 kHz-capable drivers, Airflow Control Port to clarify layers of detail in DSD and 24-bit recordings, and of course, lots of tight bass muscle for rhythmic, compelling performance, from jazz to EDM. Over-the-ear cable design reduces noise and frees you to move while listening, the high quality braided design featuring call answer/end for convenient smartphone use. Stylish, functional, future-focused sound for hi-fi heads wanting better cost-to-performance on their investment.
