Backstory
Verdandi: One of the Three Norns - the current Norn
The three Norns known as Norn are not subordinates or colleagues of the gods, but rather representatives of Orlog (Fate). Verdandi is the second of the three sisters who control fate in Norse mythology. She is the daughter of the wise giant Mimir and the Norn who presides over the "Present", also known as the Present Norn. Her older sister Urd represents the past and her younger sister Skuld represents the future. Their main tasks are caring for the World Tree and weaving the web of fate by writing the runes of fate on wooden slats.
Verdandi is affable and gentle, sometimes lively, sometimes courageous. She not only controls the fate of people, but can also predict the fate of the gods and urges them to preserve the present. Their appearance is seen as a sign of the end of the Golden Age of the Gods.
Housing design
High-quality pigments and materials such as gold foil are used to make the Verdandi headphones. The collision of different pigments creates rich layers and patterns that show a mystical and dynamic fusion of blue and green. The bright colors pulsate with a natural energy.
The exquisite craftsmanship of the inlays gives the entire headphones vibrancy and a captivating shine. The headphones' unique polishing technology ensures smooth lines and elegant posture.
Tuning concept
Verdandi is a high-end headphone that offers balanced sound and excellent musical adaptability. Combining dynamic drivers and bone conduction for bass reproduction, it delivers rich and elastic low frequencies with a textured quality. The two different units seamlessly integrate their respective advantages to maximize performance.
In terms of voices, the headphones offer clear spatial perception at a moderate distance, avoiding proximity effect while maintaining good density. The treble range is sensitive, transparent and has excellent extension and detail reproduction. With its two electrostatic drivers, the headphones provide a stable and clear background for the voices of modern goddesses, creating an expansive soundstage for an intense listening experience, especially when recording live.
Overall, the Verdandi offers a warm and cultivated sound signature, which is characterized by a balanced tonality and an expansive sound image. It is suitable for a variety of genres, including chamber music, pop and jazz.
Driver configuration
- A dynamic driver for low frequencies
- Two Knowles Balanced Armature mid/high frequency drivers
- Two Sonion Electrostatic Drivers for high/ultra-high frequencies
- A bone conduction driver to support low frequencies
The 6 mm dynamic driver is responsible for the low frequency range. The new generation of 6mm liquid diaphragm units use advanced tuning techniques to effectively reduce resonance, expand frequency response and deliver natural and warm voices. It offers rich and fine detail reproduction, high accuracy in instrument reproduction and a wide and solid soundstage.
The driver's magnet is made of high-performance permanent magnets, which provide strong magnetic driving force. The magnetic circuit system features a high-precision, fully enclosed layout that allows greater magnetic flux and improved magnetic conductivity, increasing the stability of the sound space and achieving high-fidelity sound reproduction.
The Bonde conduction driver supports the low frequency range by using a contact-based bone conduction driver. It works in synergy with the dynamic low-frequency driver to further improve low-frequency performance, resulting in fuller and deeper bass and enabling an intense musical experience.
The two balanced armature drivers from Knowles are responsible for the medium and high frequencies. Through sophisticated circuitry and a crossover design, they seamlessly combine Verdandi's mid and high frequencies. The drivers have been carefully tuned to balance the naturalness of the dynamic woofer with the advantages of the electrostatic drivers in the high frequency range, ensuring seamless transition and coherence across Verdandi's entire frequency range.
