"The open-back Austrian Audio The Arranger headphones deliver a weightier, smoother, and more flexible sound signature than the Composer, albeit at the cost of a reduced soundstage size and a slight masking of detail relative to the flagship's capability."

Where high-end listening begins.
The Arranger opens the door to true high-end listening – with audiophile sound and a robust, modern design made for everyday use. Clear, precise, and deeply immersive, it creates a natural sense of space in which instruments have their rightful place – not inside your head, but in the room.
Whether you are listening with focus at home or casually on the go, The Arranger is designed as a serious reference – without the fragility or excessive presentation of classic high-end headphones.
Reference sound. Made for real life.
Space. Depth. Control.
At the heart of The Arranger is a 44 mm high-excursion driver developed by Austrian Audio, featuring a DLC-coated diaphragm and proprietary ring magnet. This design ensures exceptional impulse response, extremely low distortion, and clean, controlled bass reproduction down to 5 Hz – best in class.
The result is a wide, realistic soundstage with impressive depth layering and precise imaging. Transients remain clear, dynamics are fully preserved, and every detail sits exactly where it belongs – for audiophiles as well as professional mixing and mastering engineers.
Precise in detail. Musical as a whole.
Built to last. Made for long sessions.
Soft velour synthetic-leather ear pads provide lasting comfort – even during long listening or studio sessions. The robust metal construction ensures stability and a secure feel in everyday use. The foldable design – a rarity in this class – makes The Arranger easy to store and transport, without compromising sound or aesthetics.
A detachable cable with a balanced 4-pin connector supports the included TRS cable as well as optional balanced Pentaconn or 5-pin XLR cables. Thanks to its low impedance, The Arranger performs confidently even with mobile devices – an additional headphone amplifier is not strictly necessary.
Comfort, durability, and flexibility – without compromise.
Designed for a life with music.
Unlike most headphones in its class, The Arranger is fully serviceable. The ear pads and headband can be replaced, significantly extending its lifespan beyond the industry average. Made in Europe from high-quality materials. Developed with purpose, built to last.
The Arranger is not a trend product. It is a reference you can rely on – today, tomorrow, and for many years to come.
The Arranger – sound that lasts.
